Application Description
Traceability of measuring equipment used in processes is an important The reference standard instrument (BNME 1 kNm) generates a
quality element for ensuring that all measured values correspond to defined torque using lever arms (2 1019.239 mm 0.005 mm)

This internationally recognized calibration certificate is becoming
increasingly important, since it provides the only means to
demonstrate traceability to national or international standards.
