(laboratory № 23-1)

VETU 01-03-03-98 Secondary measurement standard of length - meter

VETU 01-03-03-98 had been created on the base of the Kösters interferometers.

The scientist-keeper of VETU 01-03-03-98 is Dmytro TOPTUNENKO, leading metrology engineer.

CMC ID in the official KCDB website: EURAMET-L-UA-00000ORB-1.

Institute service identifier: UkrCSM/4.

The laboratory conducts the following types of works:

• development, production, and research of working measurement standards of the length and liquid level;
• conformity assessment of legal measuring instruments (MIs):
  • Evel gauges;
  • Material measures of length (tapes, rigid rulers, folding rulers, scales, measuring sticks of wood, measuring sticks);
  • Length MIs of rope-type materials (e.g., textiles, bands, cables);
  • Area MIs of irregular-shaped objects (e.g., for leather);
  • Multi-dimensional MIs of the edge length (length, height, width) of the smallest enclosing rectangular parallelepiped of a product.
• Calibration of:
  • MIs and reproducing of linear quantities (length, width, height, distance, diameter, thickness, radius, level, etc.);
  • MIs of linear deformation of materials during their tests (extensometers);
  • MIs and reproducing roughness.
• Verification of legal MIs:
  • Material measures of length (tapes, rigid rulers, rigid rods, folding rulers, scales, measuring sticks of wood, measuring sticks);
  • Length measuring instruments of rope-type materials (e.g., textiles, bands, cables);
  • Area MIs of irregular-shaped objects (e.g., for leather);
  • Multi-dimensional MIs of the edge length (length, height, width) of the smallest enclosing rectangular parallelepiped of a product;
  • Level gauges.
