SetaVap Certified Reference Material – Pentane

Produced in general accordance with the principles of ISO 17034 and ISO 33405, the SetaVap Certified Reference Material (CRM) Pentane provides certified values for multiple test methods and has been characterised using a network of competent laboratories to provide international traceability. It is a highly cost effective solution to help meet verification requirements for audited laboratories and those which comply with ISO 17025.

The SetaVap CRM Pentane is supplied with full documentation including Safety Data Sheet (SDS), in tamper evident security packaging.

Pack size: 200 mL.

Part Number:80610-0
Methods: ASTM D5191, ASTM D6378, EN 13016-1, EN 13016-3

Amount

The Pentane Certified Reference Material allows routine monitoring of instrument performance and is also particularly helpful in training personnel on new equipment and test methods. The purchase of CRMs is recommended with new instrumentation to assist with installation and commissioning.

Incorrect determination of a result can have far reaching financial and safety implications. The growing use of automated instrumentation increases the possibility that incorrect results may go undetected and in addition the early indication of bias is a useful warning to minimise production ‘giveaway’.

Seta Certified Reference Materials are unique because, unlike most other Certified Reference Material that are only suitable for validating a specific parameter/value, Seta CRMs enable a user to validate different tests and instrumentation using the same sample material.

Certification: the SetaVap Certified Reference Material (CRM) Pentane is supplied with a certificate of measurement which gives the certified value for each test method covered by the material.
