CALIBRATTION |
The bureau is the custodian
of the national measurement standards in Mauritius. The Metrology
Division's purpose-built laboratories house the national standards
for mass, length, pressure, force, temperature, DC voltage and
resistance. the national measurement standards are calibrated
at regular intervals at overseas national measurement laboratories
to ensure traceability of measurements to international standards.

MSB deals with industrial
metrology whereby calibration of instruments and working standards
are performed on a voluntary basis both in-house and in-situ.
Calibration of weights and measures used in trade in Mauritius
is the responsibility of the Legal Metrology Division of the
Ministry of Industry and International Trade. In order to avoid
duplication, MSB calibrates instruments in the areas of length
and mass if the accuracy is higher than the laid down in the
Legal Metrology Act. The secondary measurement standards for
mass and length maintained by the Legal Metrology Division are
calibrated at periodic intervals by MSB in order to ensure traceability
of measurement in trade.
The calibration services also enable in-situ calibration of
temperature installations such as ovens, cold-rooms and freezers.
