Hach Certified Reference Material (CRM) Conductivity Standard Solutions are premium-grade calibration standards manufactured and certified in accordance with DIN EN ISO 17034:2017, the international standard for reference material producers. These CRMs are designed for precise and traceable calibration of conductivity sensors and meters across laboratory, field, and industrial environments.
Each CRM solution is traceable to the International System of Units (SI) via NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) and conforms to the International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML) Recommendation No. 56, providing assurance of traceability, accuracy, and uncertainty estimation.
Certification & Quality Assurance
- Produced by Hach Lange GmbH, an accredited reference material producer (DAkkS)
- Certified under DIN EN ISO 17034:2017, which extends beyond ISO 17025 by including material production and stability
-
Each CRM includes a downloadable Certificate of Analysis (CoA) and Certificate of Conformity, verifying:
- Exact measured conductivity value
- Uncertainty (typically k=2 coverage factor)
- Traceability chain
- Expiration and storage conditions
Packaging & Shelf Life
- Packaged in airtight, light-protective bottles and enclosed in sealed aluminum pouches
- Guaranteed shelf life of 2 years (unopened) from the date of certification
- Once opened, solutions remain valid for up to 3 months, provided they are stored at 10–25 °C and protected from light
