Calibration service in Japan JCSS calibration Slide 11 Our way to be accredited under JCSS 1988 Started selling Coriolis flow meter in Japan 1991 Introduced the flow calibration rig at Yamanashi Operation Center. 2003 According to the Japanese Metrology Law, E+H Japan started the project to be accredited under JCSS. But there was no Japanese national standard for our flow rate. Endress+Hauser Japan NMIJ 0.002 m 3 /h 40.1 m 3 Flow rate (log) /h 50 m 3 /h 3,000 m 3 /h Slide 12 IAJapan recommended us to go for ASNITE program. ASNITE is a accreditation program for calibration laboratories using a standard traceable to the international standard. ASNITE is based on ISO/IEC 17025.
Our way to be accredited under JCSS 2005 Accredited under Accreditation System National Institute of Technology and Evaluation (ASNITE). The first accredited calibration laboratory for water flowmeter in Japan. 2006 Flow calibration rig move to HQ in Fuchu, Tokyo Recalculate the density of water and air buoyancy correction. 2009 NMIJ extended the national standard lower to 2 L/h. 2010 E+H Japan finally accredited under JCSS by IAJapan for water flowmeter. Slide 13 Evaluation by IAJapan and NMIJ Density measurement method : We were asked to prove the PTB method for the density measurement of water. 1. NMIJ brought water sampled at 2 location in Tsukuba City. 2. E+H Japan measured the density by using PTB method. 3. Compared with the measured value by NMIJ. Result : Five places of decimals - complete match Slide 14 Weight of minerals Add to the density of pure water.
Calibration method 1) Gravimetric for Coriolis flowmeter 2) Volmetric for EMF Q = m/ Diverter Computer Slide 15 Frequency Mass Water reservoir Calibrated scale JCSS accredited Flow calibration rig Flow calibration rig (FCP6.A) : Controlled via Profibus Best measurement capability : 0.05 % (k=2) Location : Endress+Hauser Japan HQ in Fuchu, Tokyo Environment : Temperature 255 Humidity 60%30% Atmospheric pressure 980hPa50hPa Flow rate : 2 kg/h to 40,000 kg/h Calibration method : Gravimetric and volumetric Operation : Automated calibration by computer.

Calibration procedure Calibration procedure : Push start button. The flow diverter will change the flow direction after the flow becomes steady and ready to measure. The fluid is flowing into the tank. The counter starts synchronized with the diverter movement, counting the frequency output of DUT. The flow diverter return to original position after certain time. The counter stops synchronized with diverter movement. Compare the value measured by load cell and value calculated from the pulses count. Compare the total mass or volume. Slide 17 The measurement will be done 5 times at 20%, 35%, 50%, 75% and 100% of maximum flow rate respectively. Howtokeepthehighestreliability Checking the density of water. Measure the mineral ingredient in water every 3 months. Leakage test of ball valve Every week. Confirmation test with internal transfer meter. Ensuring the integrity of flow rig, comparison measurement with SCS accredited flow rig in Swiss is performed every month by using Coriolis transfer meter. Slide 19
