Error limits related to the nominal capacity (= maximum volume) indicated on
the instrument, obtained when instrument and distilled water are equilibrated
at ambient temperature (20 °C/68 °F). Testing takes place according DIN EN
ISO 8655-6 with a completely filled instrument and with uniform and smooth
dispensing.

* A = Accuracy, CV = Coefficient of Variation
For the instrument with the chosen fixed volume, the values of A and CV are calculated in accordance
with the nominal volume for the instrument size used.
For example
Fixed volume 42 ml, instrument size 50 ml
50 ml
A% =
· 0.5% = 0.6%
42 ml
50 ml
CV =
· 0.1% = 0.12%
42 ml
Note:
The error limits are well within the limits of DIN EN ISO 8655-5. The maximum error limit for a single
measurement can be calculated EL = A + 2 CV (e.g. for volume 10 ml: 50 µl + 2 x 10 µl = 70 µl).
