The laboratory is at 2221 Forster Street, Room G-44A, Harrisburg, PA 17125. It provides traceable calibrations of artifacts relating to mass, volume, length, time, and force.
Those services are available to the weights and measures community, private industry, service companies, municipal governments, and other state government agencies.
The force line is push-pull gauges by tension up to 30 lbf. The same list includes mass standards, weight carts from 6000 lb to 3000 lb, Class IIII scales up to 40 000 lb, steel tapes up to 200 ft, and stopwatches up to 24 hour.
A pressure gauge is not named. The page says a public fee schedule establishes fees, and that local, state, and federal government agencies are exempt from fee payments.
