SOLUTIONS FOR PRIMARY & SECONDARY LABORATORIES
AC/DC Standard Resistors
20°C
Models SRA & SRB
Eventually all resistance thermometry refers back to one
or more fixed resistors. These are a key element in any
laboratory which measures temperature. The resistors
need to be very stable with time, temperature and
transportation, and they need to have negligible
inductance and capacitance.
They also need to have a long and successful history of
use. Wilkins and Swan at our National Physical
Laboratory (NPL) developed a resistor design flexible
enough to allow windings with various resistance values
to be made available and stable enough to be accepted
world-wide as resistance standards. Particularly
important is that the AC/DC characteristics are the same
up to about 1000 Hz.
Isotech are pleased to be able to offer this design of
resistor and we can calibrate the SRA values in our
laboratory to the following uncertainties.
Value Ω Uncertainty, k=2
1 < 0.09 ppm
10, 25, 100 < 0.08 ppm
400 < 0.15 ppm
