Overview
In regulated laboratory environments, precision and accuracy are critical. ISO 8655:2022 sets the requirements for piston-operated volumetric apparatus (POVA) such as pipettes, burettes, dispensers, and syringes. The standard defines calibration and testing methods to ensure reliable, repeatable liquid handling. This compendium gives laboratories and calibration facilities practical guidance on ISO 8655 compliance, explains the differences from ISO 17025, and outlines gravimetric and photometric calibration procedures. It also showcases Sartorius solutions like Picus® 2 electronic pipettes, Cubis® II balances, Speedcal Mobile for multi-channel pipette calibration, and Arium® Advance EDI water systems for consistent, traceable results.
Download this practical guide to strengthen compliance and simplify workflows.
