Calibration of Air Pollution
Calibration of Air Pollution
Monitoring instruments used for assessment of air pollution are prone to drift and may
show variations in measured parameters. Hence it is a false expectations that their
calibration is stable over long period of time. Therefore, these instruments are need to
be calibrated at indicated frequency for reliable estimates.
Recognising the vital need of calibration across the country for air pollution monitoring
so that reliable quality data are generated, Envirotech has set-up following reference,
calibration facilities for calibration of Envirotech air pollution monitoring instruments.
All above reference set-ups are calibrated to a traceable national standard at highest
possible accuracy's. To ensure this the measurements for these Set-ups are done at
least one order better than the least count of the instrument.
Following calibrations are performed at Envirotech for various type of instruments using
forbid set-ups. These set-ups are available at Envirotech with valid tractability for
recalibration of Envirotech Instruments as per requirements at nominal cost of
calibration
• Orifice plate based flow metering adopted in the instruments is calibrated against
basic system available at Gas Dynamics Lab I.I T Delhi
• Each Pitot is tested at l.l.T. Delhi thus Pitot calibration constant of each tube is
certified.
• rotameter are calibrated against standard certified dry gas meter and soap film
calibrator.
• Wind speed is calibrated using standard l.l.T. Certified wind speed sensor.
