Technel Engineering Inc. was recently awarded a contract by the Canadian government for the supply of Regional Standard Barometers.
The Regional Standard Barometer is used as the reference standard to verify the Regional portable "Transfer Standard". The Transfer Standard is, in turn, used by field inspectors to verify all the national airport barometers.
Technel designed the Model 745-2 System which is comprised of two Paroscientific Model 745-16B Barometric standards mounted in a modern, compact, table top case.
Paroscientific barometers were selected for their enviable track record of reliability, accuracy and long-term stability.
The Model 745 is the latest generation display with an improved accuracy of ±0.008% F.S. The unit is normally powered by 120 VAC but has a 72 hour battery back-up in case of power failure. The standard RS232 interface is available for data logging.
