PMP and ISO 17025-Compliant Calibration for Accurate Engine Emissions Measurements

As the regulatory landscape for particulate emissions continues to evolve, the recent focus on sub-23 nm particle regulations has generated significant interest among industry professionals. These developments underscore the need for enhanced measurement technologies, prompting organizations to evaluate their current systems and processes.

Maintaining the accuracy and reliability of your Engine Exhaust Condensation Particle Counter (EECPC) is essential for meeting regulatory requirements and ensuring high-quality emissions measurements. TSI’s annual service offering, which includes cleaning, calibration, and repair, provides the preventive and corrective maintenance needed to keep your EECPC in top working condition.

Value of Clean & Calibrate and Repair Services

TSI’s standard services, Clean & Calibrate and Repair, Clean & Calibrate, offer essential maintenance and calibration for models such as the 3790A and 3790A-10. These services ensure that your instrument remains compliant with regulations, including UNECE PMP (Particle Measurement Programme) as outlined in European Regulations UNECE No. 49 and No. 83. Additionally, calibration follows the guidelines of ISO 27891, which is critical for ensuring accurate aerosol particle number concentration measurements.

ISO 17025-Accredited Calibration

For those seeking an even higher level of precision, TSI also offers ISO 17025-accredited calibration services for EECPCs. This accreditation ensures compliance with PMP and ISO 27891 while meeting the highest technical standards. ISO 17025 accreditation includes a detailed analysis of measurement uncertainty, providing the most reliable test results possible. This service is especially valuable for regulatory organizations and labs that need mutually acceptable results.

PMP Compliance and Calibration for Reference Instruments

In addition to servicing EECPCs, TSI also offers PMP-compliant calibration for reference instruments like Models 3750, 3772, and 3068B. Properly calibrated reference instruments are critical for maintaining a PMP-compliant calibration bench, ensuring that particle number counting systems meet regulatory standards. These calibrations, although not ISO 17025 accredited, include enhanced tests such as counting efficiency measurements and linearity checks for concentration accuracy.

By choosing TSI’s comprehensive calibration and maintenance services, you ensure that your EECPC and reference instruments continue to deliver precise and compliant emissions measurements year after year.
