When four of the world’s leading national metrology labs took the bold step of comparing their primary moisture standards, the tool of choice, a Tiger Optics LaserTrace, performed ‘admirably’.
According to Tiger Optics, the measurements deviated less than 2% over the course of the three-year, multinational inter-comparison, thereby permitting the facilities to establish a much-needed baseline for future work.
The groundbreaking study undertaken by the European Association of National Metrology Institutes (EURAMET) relied solely upon the company’s LaserTrace, along with a back-up compact HALO instrument, also from Tiger Optics.
The performance of the Tiger Optics instruments permitted scientists to compare standard generation facilities by shipping the analytical instruments, in lieu of cumbersome standards, to the participants in the UK (National Physical Laboratory), the US (National Institute of Standards and Technology), Japan (National Metrology Institute of Japan), and Germany (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt).
