With its high-quality air samplers, MBV AG has always stood for highest precision and efficiency in the determination of microbial contamination of air. However, even the best instrument must be calibrated against international standards from time to time to ensure perfect functioning. With its own calibration laboratory, MBV is now setting another important milestone in the company's successful history and expanding its range of services for its customers.

Since 1 July 2019, the MBV calibration laboratory for air flow measurements has been accredited by the Swiss Accreditation Service according to ISO 17025:2017. "We are proud to be able to offer the calibration of DA-100 (NT) digital anemometers as an in-house service with immediate effect", says Ronny Zingre, CEO of MBV AG.

But what does this mean for customers and users of air samplers? The DA-100 NT digital anemometer was specially developed for the calibration of the MAS-100® family of air samplers. It measures the volume flow with very high accuracy, displays the air volume or mass flow as well as pressure and temperature. The calibration of the air flow is crucial in order to collect the microbial contamination in the correct air volume and to prove this to auditors. "Ultimately, this increases safety not only for our customers, but for all of us," adds Ronny Zingre. "We all need medicines from time to time, so we can be confident that they have been manufactured and tested in environments that are monitored with our equipment". With our own laboratory at our headquarters in Stäfa, customers also benefit from faster return times for their calibrated devices and the combined expertise of MBV.

Air. Nothing else.

For over 30 years, MBV has been developing air samplers to determine the microbial contamination of air. The high-quality instruments are used worldwide for monitoring where microorganisms can negatively influence the quality of products - such as in the pharmaceutical, cosmetics and food industries, in scientific research or in the manufacture of medical devices. The global market leader researches, produces and maintains innovative products with ISO 9001:2015 certification. The core of its success is the MAS-100® air sampler, which was launched on the market in 1996 and has been continuously further developed ever since. The company has its headquarters in Stäfa and controls the production and assembly of all instruments via its sister company Femron in Feuerthalen.
