Accreditations

by the German Accreditation authority (DAkkS):

Calibration Laboratory

As a result of the calibration, calibration certificates in accordance with DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 are issued for the accredited measurement quantities of acceleration and acoustics. In the hierarchy of metrological infrastructure in industrial metrology, accredited laboratories rank second — directly after the national institutes that set the reference standards for their respective countries. Calibration certificates from DAkkS-accredited laboratories are internationally recognized, for example by signatories to the agreements of the European co-operation for Accreditation (EA) and the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) regarding the mutual recognition of calibration certificates.

Known consignor

Approved by the Federal Aviation Authority: January 10, 2013; Approval Number: DE/KC/00712-01

As an officially recognized known consignor, SPEKTRA has acquired a status that entitles the company to ship so-called "secure" air cargo. Without this status, delays may occur when shipping air cargo because the goods must still be separately inspected, X-rayed and cleared before they can be loaded onto an aircraft.
