Publicación Restringido Practical Calibration of Platinum Resistance Thermometers in the Range −190 °C to 0 °C(Springer Link, 2011-10-22) De Lucas Veguillas, Javier; Benyon Puig, RobertThe results obtained in the characterization of a low-temperature comparator and its performance in relation to the calibration of metal and borosilicate sheathed standard platinum resistance thermometers (SPRTs) calibrated at the International Temperature Scale of 1990 (ITS-90) fixed points, are presented and discussed. The principal influence quantities are addressed and the estimation of measurement uncertainty supporting the calibration and measurement capability (CMC) accredited by Entidad Nacional de Acreditación (ENAC), the Spanish Accreditation Body, are presented and discussed.Publicación Restringido The Calibration of Data Loggers for the Characterization of Sterilization Autoclaves(Springer Link, 2011-10-16) De Lucas Veguillas, Javier; Elvira, Gregorio; Fuentes, H.; Benyon Puig, RobertAn experimental setup established for the calibration of temperature and pressure data loggers for use in the characterization of autoclaves and steam sterilizers is described. The results obtained on two devices in the range of 25 °C to 125 °C at absolute pressures from 100 kPa to 375 kPa are presented and discussed in the context of the manufacturer’s specifications and their suitability for on-site characterization of the temperature and pressure conditions during the normal operational cycles. The recommendations on the calibration of these devices and the estimation of the contributions to the expanded uncertainty of measurement for the characterization of autoclaves are addressed.Publicación Restringido Evaluation of a Portable Apparatus for the Realization of the Triple Point of Argon(Springer Link, 2014-06-21) De Lucas Veguillas, Javier; Benyon Puig, RobertIn this paper, the evaluation of the performance of a portable triple-point-of-argon apparatus, via the analysis of the calibration history of selected working (fused silica) standard platinum resistance thermometers (SPRTs), is presented. These have an extensive calibration history, both internally (using different apparatus) and externally at two National Measurement Institutes. A special procedure had to be developed, for the calibration of metal-sheathed SPRTs, in order to ensure adequate thermal contact between the SPRT and the well and to minimize the influence of stem conduction, inherent in the compact design of the maintenance system. The results show good agreement between the measurements performed with this system and those with the previously used apparatus, to a level of uncertainty consistent with the INTA calibration and measurement capability (CMC) of 3.0 mK (k = 2). This CMC is given by the Spanish accreditation body (ENAC), under accreditation No. 16/10.007, for the routine calibration of SPRTs at the triple point of argon. It is concluded that the portable apparatus is suitable for use as a transfer standard for the comparison of local realizations of the triple point of argon. This avoids the need to shipping fragile SPRTs, with a valuable long calibration history, and eliminates the contributions due the long-term stability of the thermometers subjected to transportation. The long-term stability of the portable apparatus reported in this work has only been determined in laboratory conditions.
