THE TRACEABILITY SYSTEM OF FORCE MEASUREMENTS IN ROMANIA

Adrian Gherasimov, Eugen Ghita

Abstract

The paper presents some technical aspects about the Romanian system built-up to ensure the traceability of force measurements to the SI units. The regulations of the traceability schemes and the steps to be followed are presented. The Force Laboratory Timisoara, pending of Romanian Bureau of Legal Metrology proposed and implemented the national traceability of force measurements. The paper presents the best measurements capabilities, which the Romanian calibration laboratories offer for force measurements. In order to perform a national and international validation of the force measurements in Romania, the traceability system must be in accordance with the national and international standards. One of the major parameters of the traceability system is the uncertainty associated with calibration or measurement results. This trend is based on the explosive implementation of the ISO 9000 series and ISO 17025 requirements in industry and other fields. The Romanian Government putted forward some regulations in order to provide for the necessary conditions to report the results to the acknowledged standards.
