TECHNE BECOMES AN ACCREDIA-ACCREDITED CENTRE FOR PRESSURE CALIBRATION
Laboratory for the calibration of pressure gauges and pressure transducersIn the field of industrial metrology, where precision and reliability are essential, TECHNE takes a further significant step forward by obtaining ACCREDIA accreditation for the calibration of pressure measuring instruments in accordance with UNI CEI EN ISO/IEC 17025.
This achievement consolidates TECHNE’s position as a technical partner of excellence for companies that rely on certified quality and internationally recognised measurement results.
State-of-the-art technology – unique in Italy
The accreditation is the result of a structured development path built over several years, supported by a total investment exceeding €600,000. The laboratory has been upgraded with some of the most advanced pressure calibration technologies currently available, including:
In parallel, the technical team has completed an advanced qualification programme, including internal training activities and specialised courses at the official ACCREDIA training centre.
Which instruments are calibrated?
At the TECHNE pressure laboratory, pressure gauges and pressure transducers are calibrated by comparison with ACCREDIA-certified reference pressure gauges and transducers, in full compliance with the applicable international standards.
What does an ACCREDIA calibration certificate mean?
Laboratories are accredited by ACCREDIA following a comprehensive assessment process, consisting of an initial evaluation and periodic surveillance audits to ensure continuous compliance with regulatory and standard requirements.
An ACCREDIA calibration certificate issued by TECHNE guarantees a high level of quality, measurement accuracy and traceability, and ensures international recognition of the calibration results.
Calibration consists in determining the metrological characteristics of a measuring instrument by comparing its indications with those of a suitable reference instrument of the same type and with adequate accuracy.
A strategic accreditation for an evolving market
The accreditation granted by ACCREDIA – the Italian national accreditation body officially designated by the government – certifies the competence, independence and impartiality of TECHNE’s laboratory and ensures that all issued certificates meet the highest quality and safety standards.
A continuously expanding accreditation portfolio
The pressure calibration laboratory adds to the existing ACCREDIA accreditations already achieved by TECHNE:

The accreditation is the result of a structured development path built over several years, supported by a total investment exceeding €600,000. The laboratory has been upgraded with some of the most advanced pressure calibration technologies currently available, including:
- an automatic pneumatic pressure balance (only two units installed in Italy),
- an automatic hydraulic pressure balance, currently the only one of its kind in the country,
- an inverted piston pressure balance for the measurement of negative gauge pressure.
