Equipment and Instruments. Certain machinery, equipment, instruments, laboratory equipment and apparatus, fixtures, tools, and other tangible assets that are listed on Schedule 2.1.2 (the “Equipment”);
Equipment and Instruments. 29.1 All equipment and instruments, necessary for the employee's efficient conduct of the employer's practice, shall be provided by the employer. The employee to whom such equipment and instruments are supplied shall be personally responsible for their care and shall return such to the employer in good order and condition (subject to normal wear and tear) when required to do so.
Equipment and Instruments a) All equipment and instruments used to provide the Services must be:
Equipment and Instruments. The current equipment allows the Lab to meet a moderate volume demand of the basic instruments used in meteorological measurements magnitudes. While we must study in detail the needs and requirements of calibration for each quantity demanded, we can say, looking at the list of current instruments and equipment, that a renewal will be necessary and / or the increasing in the amount thereof (see Table 3 and Figure 1). It is important to mention that the laboratory has a large volume wind tunnel, the availability of an equipment like this is not common in Argentina and in the region Brand – Serial Number Model Instrument Range Standard VAISALA N° G4110027 PTB 330 BAROMETER 500 to 1100 hPa VAISALA N° B4710021 HMT333 THERMOHYIGROMETER -40°C to 60°C - 5 to 100% rh SIAP N° 1 Y N° 2 MERCURY THERMOMETER -20 °C to 50 °C VAISALA N°F0830006 ULTRASONIC WD30 ANEMOMETER 2 to 30 m/s Working standard VAISALA PTB 300 DIGITAL BAROMETER (5 units) 500 to 1100 hPa XXXXX CLIMA HAND HELD ANEMOMETER 0.5 to 30 m/s VAISALA B4320001 HMP45 THERMOHYIGROMETER -20 °C to 60 °C - 5 a 100 % hr Table 3: References instruments Figure 2: Calibration bath, climatic chamber, and pressure chamber. To meet the demand resulting from a modernization and expansion of observation instruments, which will have more demanding calibration requirements. it will be necessary to renew the equipment and to increase its capacity and quantity. In some cases the old design and wearing of equipment provoke that these do not meet the required technical specifications for the quality measurement needed. Inter-laboratory comparison After several interviews and visits of INTI experts to CRI Bs. As. lab, the realization of two inter- laboratory comparisons was planned, in temperature and in relative humidity. Knowing the state of development and capabilities of the laboratory, this exercise was thought not only as a tool for evaluation of laboratory performance but also as a training opportunity for lab staff. The lab technicians have had a first approach to the calculation of uncertainty and the process to make a comparison. For the two magnitudes that were compared, two protocols were prepared. These protocols were previously agreed on between the two participants. The measuring range, transfer instruments, calibration methods and criteria to evaluation are described in these protocols. The lab does not have an established procedure for the assessment of uncertainties. A simple measurement model, according to the me...
