ABB has inaugurated a calibration facility in its Minden factory in Germany, which is expected to provide customers with high levels of accuracy in process flowmeters.

The new capabilities will enable plant operators across industries, such as chemical, oil & gas, battery, hydrogen and power, to measure in and outflow as well as raw and produced materials, thus controlling their processes in a more precise and efficient way.

The new hall houses two water calibration rigs for various process flowmeters, such as Coriolis, Swirl and Vortex flowmeters with a calibration accuracy of less than 0.1%. It also includes a density calibration rig for Coriolis flowmeters and air calibration rigs for the thermal mass flowmeter series. In the 1200 m² hall, 375 m² are available for air calibration and 525 m² for water calibration.

The new capabilities will allow the Minden factory to increase its capacity by up to 30% while increasing accuracy and enabling ABB to serve its global customer base even better and reducing lead times.
