As a result, A2LA accreditation of DHI calibration services to ISO/IEC 17025 and ANSI/NCSL Z540-1-1994 is maintained. The scope of measurement capabilities has been expanded and best measurement capabilities improved in several areas. http://www.dhinstruments.com/serv1/index.htm  PURCHASE FINANCING - A leasing option is available to purchasers of DHI products in the United States and Canada.

Thanks to reduced uncertainties in piston-cylinder effective area in the DHI pressure calibration chain, typical measurement uncertainty has been reduced for existing piston gauge models. http://www.dhinstruments.com/prod1/pgs.htm#7920tn01b ------------------------------------------------------------------ PC BASED SOFTWARE UPGRADES (Available for Free Download) ------------------------------------------------------------------  Unit of Measure Converter Ver. 1.00a available under PC BASED SOFTWARE.
