6 CALIBRATION
6.1 Traceability
The calibration of this instrument is traceable to national standards. For this reason
the instrument can only be calibrated in an accredited e.g. NIST or UKAS accredited,
standards laboratory.
If these facilities do not exist, the instrument must be returned to the manufacturer,
Kahn Instruments, or one of their approved agents.
The DCC function can be disabled for calibration purposes (refer to Section 3.2.1).
A calibration certificate bearing a four point calibration is issued with each instrument. If
required, an option is available to add further specific calibration points. Contact Kahn
Instruments for further information (see www.michell.com for contact details).

Remote PRT 131155 read 19.25°C at a temperature of 19.33°C
Comments:
NOTE Traceability to National Physical Laboratory is over the range -90°C to +90°C.
Traceability to National Institute of Standards and Technology is over the range -75°C to +20°C
Uncertainty of measurement:
+/- 0.20 @ +20°C DP increasing linearly to +/- 0.40 @ -60°C DP then rising linearly to +/- 0.63 @ -75°C DP
+/- 0.31 b20°C DP and +82°C DP
The uncertainty is based on a standard uncertainty multiplied by a coverage factor k=2, providing a level of confidence of approximately 95 %
