The uncertainty (k=2) measurement of individual values is I = ± 0,1 %
The expanded uncertainty indicated is based on a standard uncertainty multiplied by a coverage factor k=2, which for a normal distribution provides a level of confidence of about 95%)
It has done 200 cycles of freeze-thaw, above 150 cycles required standard UNE-EN 539-2:2013.
