FAQ

 

Q: Is the unique K-factor engraved on the nameplate or provided only in the report?

A: It is stamped on the steel nameplate and documented in the individual calibration certificate.

Q: Can the factory provide material traceability certificates for chemical plant audits?

A: Yes, EN 10204 3.1 material certificates are available upon request during order placement.

Q: What is the standard production lead time for an order of fifty units?

A: Standard production usually requires 10–15 working days after payment confirmation.

Q: How are custom-calibrated meters packaged to prevent salt-fog corrosion during sea freight?

A: Meters are vacuum-sealed in anti-static moisture-barrier bags with desiccant before seaworthy crating.

Q: Can the local electronic display be rotated if installed in a vertical pipeline?

A: The display enclosure can be adjusted in 90-degree increments for optimal viewing orientation.
