Measurements & Instrumentation
The African Metrology Laboratory (LAME) offers a complete range of services dedicated to measurement, instrumentation and regulation, to ensure the reliability, compliance and performance of your industrial installations.
Thanks to a team of experts and certified equipment, we intervene on site for the calibration, verification, commissioning as well as the maintenance of measurement and control systems.
Instrumentation & Regulation
We support manufacturers in the management and optimization of their control and instrumentation loops:
- Simulation and testing of measurement loops to ensure the correct functioning of sensors and actuators.
- Synchronization tests of the measurement loops: Pressure (PT), Temperature (TT), Level (LT), Flow (FT), Differential Pressure (PDT).
- Installation, removal and preventive maintenance of sensors, automatic valves, pressure switches, thermostats, etc.
- Creation of new control loops, or modification of existing loops.
- Functional maintenance of measuring instruments to avoid deviations and guarantee continuous performance.

On-site calibration
Our teams work directly on your installations to calibrate and verify your measuring equipment, using procedures that comply with international standards.
Our services include:
- Calibration of metal needle pressure gauges
- Calibration and verification of transmitters: ▸ Relative pressure (PT) ▸ Differential pressure (PDT) ▸ Temperature (TT) ▸ Flow (FT) ▸ Level (LT)
- Resumption of calibration of transmitters to ensure their accuracy.
- Checking pressure switches and thermostats to ensure they are working properly.
- Safety valve control, essential to prevent incidents in the event of overpressure.
Safety valves
- Test as found
- Test adjustment and calibration
- Pop test
- Bubble test
- Test as left
On-site testing – Commissioning
We intervene in the commissioning phases to validate the proper functioning of your instrumentation and regulation systems:
- Pre-start compliance tests.
- Verification of the consistency and wiring of the measurement loops.
- Control of output signals and functional integrity of instruments.
