Metal carbides has expanded its range of mixtures of calibration for the environmental sector and that they have ISO 17025 certification. These mixtures of gases with ENAC accreditation, which are part of the Special gases Experis range, are available in a wide range of concentrations, all of which are accompanied by a certificate of calibration of one of the laboratories of Air Products certified according to the ISO 17025 standard. These mixtures are aimed at markets that require greater security in the results, because they have lower uncertainty values and require traceability, such as the environmental sectors, automotive or natural gas.

The new expanded range of mixtures of gases of high accuracy is produced by the special carbides metal gas lab in Sant Celoni, which is accredited with the ISO 17025 by the ENAC (national accreditation entity), since 1998being the first company that is credited to multi-component mixtures.

Lieve of Paepe, Product Manager of analysis and Air Products laboratories says: "To extend this accreditation to a wider range of calibration gases, are providing an unbeatable security necessary analysis in many applications that require critical measurements to industrial level."

New mixtures of gases also provide excellent stability of its composition, even when using the more reactive components. This fact ensures a longer life of the mixture. This stability is achieved by choosing the treatment of bottle, preparation and filling skills according to the components used in each blend.
