Calibration of test equipment

2001-02-26 Thread Brian Harlowe

RE: Final EMC Testing In-House

2001-02-23 Thread Brian Harlowe
Another English pennyworth to add to all the other correspondents. You will need to have the equipment calibrated at least once a year by a NAMAS lab or similar in order to maintain credibility of your measurements!!! Brian Harlowe Thermo V.G. Scientific Tel +44 (0)1342 327211 Fax +44 (0)1342
