Training on “Understand and Interpret a Calibration Certificate Batch 3”

Posted on by

Corporation and Partnership Development Group under the Policy and Strategy Department organised a training on “Understand and Interpret a Calibration Certificate Batch 3”, training by Acting Leader of Primary Electrical, Time and Frequency Standard Group Dr Monthol Homklintian to various participants from public and private sectors. The training needed the participants to realize the significance of the certificate. The participants had to describe metrological terms written on the certificate and know important elements of the certificate. Finally, the participant would be able to calibrate and use data in the certificate to assess the measuring uncertainty. Moreover, the participants were enabled to indicate the right method to use the calibration laboratory. It was an online training from Matra Dhamrong Building, NIMT on April 28, 2021.

Training on “Mathematical model for the uncertainty measurement and calibration’s assessment”

Posted on by

Corporation and Partnership Development Group under the Policy and Strategy Department organised a training on “Mathematical Model for Assessment in the Uncertainty of Measurement and Calibration” online. This training organised for the participants from various organisations of public and private sectors. It was lectured by NIMT two professional metrologists, Dr.Monthol Homklintian, an expert in primary electrical, time and frequency standards and Mrs.Natenapit Khunmthukthip, an expert in direct current, low frequency, high frequency and electromagnetic fields. The aims of the training were to gain knowledge about the guidelines for measurement modelling to design measurement models and to enable to assess the uncertainty of measurement and calibration. The seminar was held online from Matra Dhamrong Building, NIMT during April 22 –23, 2021.

NIMT sends an expert to ensure the measurement accuracy and calibration of high precise weighing for injection equipment COVID-19 vaccine AstraZeneca.

Posted on by

National Institute of Metrology (Thailand) (NIMT) sent a professional metrologist in primary mass standards and related quantities metrologist, Mr. Monchai Mitaree to ensure the measurement accuracy and calibration of high precise weighing for COVID-19 vaccine injecting equipment AstraZeneca at Vajira Hospital, Faculty of Medicine Vajira Hospital, Navamindradhiraj University on April 9, 2021.

In this regard, Associate Professor Anan Manomaipiboon, M.D., as acting president of the university met and talked with Mr.Monchai Mitaree about the significance of balance calibration which is able to examine the injecting equipment of COVID-19 vaccine AstraZeneca. It enhances confidence in the measurement result that builds a safety and effectiveness to the vaccine recipients.

Moreover, Mr.Monchai minutely described to the hospital staff members about the fundamental examination of the balance. Before using the balance, it must conduct internal calibration first. Consequently, he gave the calibration method to the staff. After that, he calibrated the balance as EURAMET calibration Guild No.18 to measure the errors of indications. NIMT and Navamindradhiraj University have signed the mutual cooperation in medical research, medical metrology innovation development and research, especially, metrology knowledge-based against the COVID-19 that two institutes are highly concerned about. They contribute and lead metrology and medical against the COVID-19 in Thailand.

The students can learn more and extend their knowledge beyond a textbook to become an intergraded scientist.

Online training for the students

Director of NIMT Mrs.Ajchara Charoensook was one of speakers who honorarily joined the metrology training project mentioned that the training was arranged as a new normal way to nationwide students. The project was conducted to every sector such as the universities, public and private organizations to develop and publicize the metrological knowledge. The knowledge will generally be recognized and easy to access.

Director of NIMT on the monitor screen.

The educational sector become a big target for metrology knowledge building and upskilling that will prepare people for the future of manufacturing and service sectors. NIMT initially agrees to expend cooperation with 22 universities scattering across the central and regional of Thailand by adding metrology to their curriculum.

Due to the outbreak of COID-19 is still high concerned, NIMT adjusted the courses to online on “Introduction to Metrology for Scientist” for Burapha University’s students during March 24 – 26, 2021. And another course on “Introduction to Calibration and Metrology measuring instrument for Chemical and Physical Scientist” for the students from Faculty of Sciences, Prince of Songkla University during March 29 – April 9, 2021.
