Introduction If it measures flow, we can calibrate it. Among the world’s elite flow calibration facilities, Badger Meter Flow Dynamics primary and secondary standard calibration laboratories calibrate all flow meters from any manufacturer. Flow Dynamics primary standard calibration facility in Scottsdale, Arizona offers superior liquid and gas calibration uncertainties, as confirmed by the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP*), Lab Code 200668-0, Scope of Accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025:2005 and NIST Handbook 150. Meter types The calibration results delivered by a...

Why Calibrate? It’s a fact: Flow meter performance will change over time. This typically happens due to a wide range of factors, such as an event that exceeds the meter’s over-range capability, unexpected particulates in the line, corrosion, or product buildup, a severe temperature event, lightning strikes, or using a new fluid with a viscosity that differs from the original calibration. Whatever the reason, calibration data exposes the unknown. Flow meter users should calibrate to: Maximize Revenue Many flow meters are used in custody transfer applications where customers are charged for...

Why Calibrate? Maintain Quality Certifications and/or Regulatory Compliance Many ISO 9000 processes and authorities that oversee the sale of fluids require documented evidence of instrument calibration. Scheduled calibration helps users validate meter performance and provides historical records required by a quality system or a regulatory agency. Publish the Best Performance Specifications In research and development applications, engineers are not only proving designs but they are also working to provide the best performance specification possible for their products. This is especially...

Superior Credentials The Flow Dynamics Scottsdale, Arizona calibration facility was the first independent flow lab to receive NVLAP* (Lab Code 200668-0) accreditation. Calibrator uncertainties are verified and posted on a public NVLAP* Accreditation Document. The NVLAP* accreditation body also assesses conformity to ISO/IEC 17025, ANSI Z540 and the NIST 150 Handbook. With this accreditation, calibration service customers know that a third-party monitors the processes and the quality system, which safeguards your calibration results. This includes, monitoring primary calibration standards...

Trusted Calibration Provider Expert Service Flow Dynamics employs knowledgeable sales engineers, who strive for a seamless transition of transporting the customer's meter to the calibration facility and then back to the installation site. If the flow meter was previously serviced at a Flow Dynamics facility, historical calibration information is on file and an order is all that's needed to calibrate the meter the same way. If it's a new calibration, no problem — sales engineers help guide the customer through the process! Fast Turnaround Flow Dynamics offers an annual calibration blanket...

Complete Calibration Solution Primary Standard Liquid and Gas Calibrations Flow Dynamics offers liquid and gas calibration services, meeting both end user and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) production requirements. The blending of solvent and oil is used to simulate exact liquid viscosity, which is measured by highly accurate viscometers. Meters are calibrated on primary standards traceable to NIST, with published uncertainties, per NVLAP* Lab Code 200668-0. UVC Plot, 3 Viscosities Primary standard liquid semi-automatic calibrations Precision viscosity measurement Calibration Plot...

Badger Meter engineering flow laboratory Flow transfer standard for field calibrations Research and Development Testing The Flow Dynamics calibration lab is also available to support research and development projects. Without the restriction that comes from reliance on a single metering technology, the facility can provide reliable data to help determine the performance of products or components. Onsite Calibrations Flow Dynamics can use secondary standard master meters, installed in existing piping, to perform onsite flow meter calibrations. This enables the meter to be calibrated using...

Gas - Secondary Standard Capability Sonic Nozzles 100 cubic feet primary standard bell prover NOTE: Pressure varies, depending on flow rate. The higher the flow, the lower the pressure capability. Sonic Nozzles NOTE: The secondary standard uncertainties may vary depending on the master meter used. The exact uncertainty will be established at the time of order when the flow rate and fluid are known.
