The Value of the Meteormetrics Precision Barometer Calibrator

With the phasing out of Mercury-containing Absolute Barometers such as the Fortin Barometer, increasing reliance is being placed upon secondary instruments which need setting and calibrating to read correctly. Unlike the mercury containing instrument they replace, these secondary devices cannot easily be verified as working correctly by the user. They need to be regularly calibrated if they are to inspire confidence that their data are reliable.

Meteormetrics Limited has invested greatly in producing instruments of sound reliablity and accuracy, and the Meteor2000CBV2 Barometer Calibrator is an important product of that enterprise. With its combination of accuracy and convenience of use, it will appeal to scientist and engineers, to technicians and laboratory staff, to meteorologists and to all who attach importance not only to the measurement of the atmospheric pressure, but to the reliability and precision of the measurements themselves. It is proving an important asset where instruments need to be checked, or where pressure sensors need to be set up and adjusted and where standards need to be maintained.

Every Meteor2000CBV2 instrument is trimmed by careful measurement and adjustment to give optimum accuracy. Every instrument is exhaustively tested for reliability and performance. Each is calibrated with reference to a National Physical Laboratory, UKAS approved, traceable standard. Every effort is made to provide an instrument in which the user can place full confidence.

A warranty and prompt and efficient after sales service and periodic recalibration are at hand from Meteormetrics Limited.
