Atago have discontinued and stopped support for the popular In-Line Process Monitors including models

• Atago 3561 In-line Brix Monitor CM-780N
• Atago 3562 In-line Brix Monitor CM-780N-Plus
• Atago 3544 In-line Ethylene Glycol Monitor CM-780N-EG
• Atago 3543 In-line Salinity Monitor CM-780N-SW
• Atago In-line Propylene Glycol Monitor CM-780N-PG

As an authorised UK distributor for Atago we still have User Manuals, Parts, Brochures , however the Atago CM800 Series now is the replacements.

These products are no longer available from JULABO , and have been replaced with newer versions

Chiral Technologies Introduces CHIRALPAK® IJ – DAICEL’s Newest Immobilized Chiral Selector offering more flexibility for screening and method development conditions.

West Chester, Pa: Chiral Technologies, Inc. today announces the addition of CHIRALPAK® IJ, its newest immobilized chiral stationary phase (CSP) from DAICEL Corporation. CHIRALPAK IJ is the immobilized version of DAICEL’s popular coated phase, CHIRALCEL® OJ.

“The addition of this new selector demonstrates DAICEL’s continuing commitment to innovation while providing our customers with the tools necessary to address the separation of challenging compounds,” says Lisa Newton, Vice President of Sales at Chiral Technologies, Inc.

CHIRALPAK IJ is a cellulose polymer derivatized with tris(4-methylbenzoate) moieties. Coated phases like CHIRALCEL OJ are susceptible to degradation from incompatible mobile phases while the immobilized CHIRALPAK IJ is:

• optimized for use under both SFC and HPLC conditions
• more chemically resilient than its coated polysaccharide phase, which allows for a longer column lifetime
• compatible with a wider range of mobile phases, which provides more thorough and complete screening and method development conditions

The Bottle Top Calibration service is accredited by UKAS to ISO 17025. This internationally recognised accreditation demonstrates the levels of competence, impartiality and performance capability required to provide customers with a recognised and reliable calibration service. It is important for goods and services tested in the UK to be accepted both in Europe and worldwide, without the need for additional testing. Increasingly, accreditation is the means of achieving this. 

Who’s doing your calibration work?

ISO 17025

“To gain accreditation, a laboratory must be fully conversant and comply with the relevant standard, which is: ISO/IEC 17025:2005 : General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories”

The ISO 17025 standard includes a Quality Management System defining the operation, procedures and effectiveness of the laboratory to maintain and improve the delivery of valid test/calibration results. Technical requirements address the competence of staff, methodology and calibration equipment.

ISO 17025 incorporates all ISO9000 requirements with two important additions:

• Technical competence in pipette calibration
• Validity of results

Competency

UKAS auditors are experts in pipette calibration. As part of the initial inspection, and all subsequent audits, proves a thorough understanding of the subject, provides full documentation and traceability of calibration and demonstrates the required level of competency in pipette calibration.

Validity

All scientific operations have an associated error, or uncertainty. As part of our accreditation, has identified and quantified all aspects of its pipette calibration processes to provide an “uncertainty budget”. This experimental error allows all results to be reported with a specific uncertainty value. The uncertainty is a quantitative indication of the quality of the result. It gives an answer to the question, how well does the result represent the value of the quantity being measured? It allows users of the result to assess its reliability.

Confidence in the comparability of results can help to reduce barriers to trade.

As part of the UKAS accreditation, all calibrations are performed gravimetrically. All weighings are in accordance with ISO 8655-6 using 5 and 6dp calibrated balances.

UKAS

UKAS is the United Kingdom Accreditation Service. It is the sole national accreditation body recognised by government to assess, against internationally agreed standards, organisations that provide certification, testing, inspection and calibration services. UKAS is a non-profit-distributing company, limited by guarantee, and operates under a Memorandum of Understanding with the Government through the Secretary of State for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy.

This compliance status is based on the information provided by THE LABORATORY STORE regarding compliance with
the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (“PCI DSS”) version 3.2.1 and is valid until 07/05/2021 pursuant to
the condition of issuing laid out below.

To remain compliant with PCI DSS, it is the responsibility of THE LABORATORY STORE to:

• Maintain compliance with all PCI DSS requirements, particularly when there is any change to your systems. This compliance maintenance includes quarterly vulnerability scans for internet facing systems (where applicable).
• Attest to your compliance on an annual basis.

UKAS ISO17025 accreditation assures you that all measuring equipment has an unbroken chain of traceability back to national standards.

Why choose UKAS ISO IEC 17025 Calibration?

UKAS ISO IEC 17025 calibration of scales and laboratory balances is all about traceability and confidence in the measurement results. UKAS Calibration ensures you of our technical expertise, and that it is externally audited and fully traceable. UKAS Calibration helps you stand out showing your customers and suppliers that your results are credible and robust.

As Found Results

All our UKAS ISO IEC 17025 calibrations include as found results, so you know exactly how the equipment was performing prior to the serivce being performed.

Adjustments

Unlike many our UKAS calibration service services include adjustments, both mechanical and electrical ensuring your equipment performs within its limit of error.

Definitive Results

Once the maintenance and adjustments are completed we test the equipment a second time and report the final results, this ensures you have complete traceability through the calibration process

Nationwide Coverage

With our partners we offer a nationwide team of qualified and certified calibration technicians deliver on-site calibration services. UKAS calibration must be performed in the environment the equipment is being used 

Sensible Reports

Our UKAS ISO 17025 Calibration reports are simple to understand and offer complete peace of mind that the weighing results you achieve are reliable and within the equipments tolerance range

Scheduled Visits

Our expert calibration team schedule in your calibration and ensure you never go out of compliance. UKAS ISO IEC 17025 calibrations can be performed monthly, quarterly, or annually which ensures continued compliance
