The Time and Frequency laboratory was the first LABELO facility to receive Cgcre accreditation, in 1991. It caters to the entire country and is qualified to calibrate frequency meters, timers, oscilloscopes, tachometers, delay timers, self-timers, and centrifuges, among others

The laboratory is highly automated, thereby optimizing the workload and providing agility and prices that are more compatible with the reality of the market. Its high level of automation provides excellent competitiveness (time and price), enabling it to cater to the entire country with a range of services that covers almost all the needs of Brazilian industry.

Another unique feature is the development of the SISLOC system – Optical Mark Recognition of Timers, meaning the lab has the world’s lowest measurement uncertainty for timers. This system is the result of a doctoral thesis by a member of LABELO staff, professor João Bernardes da Rocha Filho, whose patent has been granted by the INPI. The period required to calibrate timers is another unique LABELO feature and can be completed in only 5 working days.

Founded in 1991, it was the first LABELO lab to receive Cgcre accreditation and has been in operation for more than 20 years. It was in this laboratory that the calibration process was developed for Doppler radar speed cameras used by Federal and State Highway Patrol departments all over the country.

For several years, LABELO was the only site in the country where calibration of this equipment was possible with RBC accreditation. Subsequently, as a result of regulations compiled by the INMETRO Directorate of Legal Metrology, these calibrations were taken up by INMETRO itself and became known as Metrology Verification.

The laboratory has the capability to calibrate the following electrical quantities, which can also be done on client premises:

Delay timers
Function Generators
Frequency Meters
