For graduated pipettes up to and including 10 ml size the error limits are mentioned in the text. BRAND volumetric instruments are manufactuaccording to the current DIN EN ISO standards. As the construction specifications are differently defined in the DIN EN ISO and ASTM standards, the error limits differ as well. With included USP certificate BRAND confirms for the deliveUSP volumetric instruments that the class A error limits according to the USP or, rather, ASTM standards are met.Every glass volumetric measuring instrument is individually calibrated. Computer-controlled systems ensure maximum precision in a fully automated production line. The final step of this Statistical Process Control is random sampling of finished product according to DIN ISO 3951. The quality management system applied at BRAND, which is certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001, is a combination of process monitoring and random checks with an accepted quality level (AQL) of approximately 0.4.The batch certificate confirms that ASTM class A error limits requiby USP are met. The certificate records the mean value, the standard deviation of the batch and the date of issue (batch number: year of manufacture/batch).Unit of MeasurePack of 2 pcs.
