The One Mark
Volumetric Flasks are precision-engineered laboratory glassware designed for
accurate liquid measurement. Crafted from high-quality, durable glass, these
flasks feature a single calibration mark for exact volume measurement. Ideal
for chemical analysis, titration, and preparation of standard solutions, they
ensure reliable and consistent results in any lab setting.
These flasks are available in various sizes, each
calibrated to a specific volume, making them versatile for a wide range of
laboratory applications. Their durable construction ensures long-lasting use,
while the clear, easy-to-read markings facilitate precise measurements. Whether
in academic, industrial, or research labs, One Mark Volumetric Flasks are a
trusted tool for achieving accuracy and repeatability in scientific work.
The
Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) certification is crucial for ensuring the
quality and reliability of laboratory glassware, particularly One Mark
Volumetric Flasks. These flasks, used for precise volume measurements in
chemical and clinical laboratories, must adhere to stringent standards. The
Indian Standard IS 915:2012 specifies the requirements for these flasks,
ensuring that they meet accuracy, material quality, and calibration benchmarks.
BIS certification under this standard guarantees that the glassware is safe,
durable, and meets the accuracy required for scientific applications, thus
maintaining the integrity of experimental results.
BIS Certification is essential for One Mark Volumetric Flasks to ensure they meet the stringent Indian standards for quality, accuracy, and safety. As mandated by the Quality Control Order (QCO) released by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry (Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade), obtaining a BIS license is required to use the ISI mark on these products. This certification guarantees that the flasks are properly calibrated and reliable for precise laboratory work. Failure to comply with these standards and selling One Mark Volumetric Flasks without the ISI label can result in severe penalties, including fines, imprisonment, or both. BIS Certification not only safeguards product quality but also protects manufacturers from legal consequences.
The
Indian Standard IS 915:2012 provides comprehensive guidelines for the
manufacturing and quality of Laboratory Glassware - One Mark Volumetric Flasks.
This standard ensures that the flasks are designed for precise and accurate
volumetric measurements, essential in various laboratory applications. Key
elements of IS 915:2012 include the use of high-quality, chemically resistant
glass, ensuring durability and safety in laboratory environments. The standard
mandates that each flask must have clear, permanent calibration markings for
exact volume measurement. Additionally, IS 915:2012 specifies the design and
construction requirements, including the shape, size, and finish of the flasks,
to ensure consistency and reliability. Compliance with this standard guarantees
that the volumetric flasks meet the necessary accuracy, safety, and performance
criteria, making them suitable for precise scientific work.
To
obtain BIS Certification (ISI Mark)
for graduated measuring cylinders, the product must undergo rigorous testing as
per IS 915:2012. The tests ensure that the cylinders meet the necessary
standards in terms of performance and safety. The key tests include:
●
Dimensional Checks: Ensures accurate
sizing of the flask.
●
Graduation Mark Inspection: Verifies
clear and precise calibration markings.
●
Material Quality Testing: Confirms the
durability and quality of the glass.
●
Thermal Shock Resistance: Tests the
flask's ability to withstand temperature changes.
●
Capacity Verification: Ensures precise
volume measurement.
●
Stability Testing: Assesses the flask's
ability to remain upright.
●
Verification of One-Mark Designation:
Confirms the accuracy of the calibration mark.
●
Chemical Resistance: Tests the flask's
resistance to chemical reactions.
●
Leakage Testing: Ensures the flask is
properly sealed and leak-proof.
Process of BIS Certification for One Mark Volumetric Flasks
Obtaining BIS certification for One Mark Volumetric Flasks involves several steps. The process is designed to ensure that all products meet the required standards before they reach consumers. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
