Mesa Laboratories, Inc. Announces Renewed Commitment to Advancing Primary Standard Calibration Technology Through its DryCal Product Line Mesa Laboratories, Inc. announced a renewed commitment to advancing primary standard calibration technology through its DryCal product line, as occupational health and safety professionals confront rising regulatory scrutiny and a generational workforce transition that threatens the integrity of workplace exposure monitoring. Across industries from pharmaceutical manufacturing to construction, worker safety depends on the accuracy of air sampling pumps used to measure exposure to hazardous substances. Those pumps must be calibrated to strict standards set by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), which require calibrator accuracy of +-1%. Yet a growing share of the calibration market relies on secondary standard instruments that can degrade to +-4-20% error at low flow rates, the very conditions most critical to detecting harmful exposures. Mesa's DryCal technology uses a proprietary piston prover, a primary standard that measures gas flow directly from fundamental SI quantities of volume and time. Unlike secondary standards, which derive flow measurements directly from pressure drop, temperature, and gas viscosity assumptions, a primary standard maintains accuracy across its full operating range without depending on environmental conditions or gas-specific properties. If contamination enters the measurement cell, the DryCal's piston stops moving before it can produce an inaccurate reading, a fail-safe design that secondary instruments, which can drift silently when compromised, do not offer. The distinction between primary and secondary standards has taken on new urgency as OSHA has chosen to standardize its own field enforcement operations on Mesa's Defender series calibrators, purchasing more than 120 units in 2025 with additional orders planned for 2026. As part of its commitment to advancing calibration education across the profession, Mesa Labs is partnering with the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) to present a webinar, "Flow Calibration Essentials for the OHS Professional," featuring Parameshwar alongside Laurence R. Durio, M.S., CIH, a certified industrial hygienist with more than 50 years of experience, including prior service with OSHA enforcement. The session addresses the science behind primary standards, regulatory requirements, and best practices for avoiding sample inspections. A recording is available through the AIHA website. Mesa's Calibration Solutions division continues to invest in education, product innovation, and expanded service capabilities to support occupational health and safety professionals worldwide. The company's mission, Protecting the V vulnerable®?, is reflected in its commitment to ensuring that the instruments behind workplace exposure decisions meet the highest standards of accuracy and defensibility.
