Calibration and Measurement Capability Uncertainty (CMC) is the smallest uncertainty of measurement
that a laboratory can achieve within its scope of accreditation when performing more or less routine
calibrations of nearly ideal measurement standards or nearly ideal measuring equipment. CMCs represent
expanded uncertainties expressed at approximately the 95 % level of confidence, usually using a coverage
factor of k = 2. The actual measurement uncertainty of a specific calibration performed by the laboratory
may be greater than the CMC due to the behavior of the customer’s device and to influences from the
circumstances of the specific calibration.
3
Field calibration service is available for this calibration. Please note the actual measurement uncertainties
achievable on a customer's site can normally be expected to be larger than the CMC found on the A2LA
Scope. Allowance must be made for aspects such as the environment at the place of calibration and for
other possible adverse effects such as those caused by transportation of the calibration equipment. The
usual allowance for the actual uncertainty introduced by the item being calibrated, (e.g. resolution) must
also be considered and this, on its own, could result in the actual measurement uncertainty achievable on
a customer’s site being larger than the CMC.
4
In the statement of CMC, L is the numerical value of the nominal length in inches; R is the resolution of
the unit under test; D is the diameter in inches; H is the height of the unit under test (except where noted);
and fs represents full scale. Ra is the numerical value of the nominal roughness of the surface measured
in micrometer roughness, except where noted; the value is defined as the percentage of reading, unless
otherwise noted.
5
CMC for calibrations performed in the laboratory with the Agilent/HP 3458A/HFL is based upon 90-day
specifications. CMC for calibrations performed field with the Agilent/HP 3458A is based upon 1-year
specifications. The measurands stated are generated with the Agilent/HP 3458A. This capability is
suitable for the calibration of the devices intended to measure the stated measurand in the ranges
indicated. CMC are expressed as either a specific value that covers the full range or as a fraction of the
reading plus a fixed floor specification. Unless otherwise noted, percentages are defined as percent of
reading.
