Sound like a long list? We pride ourselves on the comprehensive range of products we supply. These are just some of the applications and products we specialise in, and if you cannot find what you’re looking for, don’t hesitate to contact us-it’s likely we can't find the product for you.
What's more, Chell Instruments is also able to offer a highly competitive commercial calibration facility with a UKAS accredited calibration lab. This is a viable, cost-effective alternative for customers who may have seen National Standards Laboratories such as NPL and NIST as the only facilities for the calibration of their pneumatic pressure balances. We can calibrate and repair all Principal and own products using a first-class, BS/EN/ISO/IEC 17025 accredited calibration laboratory with some of the lowest uncertainties currently available. Our lab provides a comprehensive service for Vacuum, pneumatic Pressure and Gas Flow measuring and controlling. Chell's calibration standards have some of the lowest uncertainties in their fields, which gives our customers great confidence in their "bought-in" uncertainties. Because of this, the aggregation of our uncertainties with your in-house uncertainties provides you and your customers with products that are high-performing. Regulations for reduced operational uncertainties in industries such as aerospace and pharmaceutical can therefore be met by periodically using our calibration service. In addition, Chell can now arrange travel to your site to carry out a fast and efficient calibration of your instrument with minimal disruption.
Our services do not stop there: In addition to our calibration facility, we also offer a complete repair service for most instruments which deal with gas pressure and flow. We pride ourselves on offering a service for all the equipment that we supply, as well as equipment supplied by most other manufacturers within our field. Instruments can be serviced before UKAS calibration, or if this is not necessary, a test and verification may be carried out.
Chell Instruments has also acquired Vacuum Fabrications, enabling Chell to provide complete vacuum solutions from fabrication, right through to fully instrumented and calibrated vacuum systems. With years of experience dealing with high and ultra-high vacuums, Vacuum Fabrications can provide the highest quality design, machining, welding and cleaning service. Quality, accuracy and an excellent finish are the hallmarks of a typical Vacuum Fabrications job. Efficient manufacturing methods mean that we can do this at very competitive cost. We also set aside time each day for urgent, fast turn-around of small fittings and special components-your drawings can be returned as a desperately needed component in 24 to 48 hours.
We supply portable, battery powered leak rate monitors (LRM), manually operated systems built specifically for leak testing (SLM100), systems built to quantify diffusive characteristics of different membrane materials (DCS100), and systems to control the applied leakage rate and measure the resultant pressure required to obtain the expected leak rate (ILITS). Test pressure and leak rate measurement abilities can be tailored to suit different fuel cell types, membrane materials and stack sizes. Additionally, variations including remote interfacing options are available to automate the testing process.
We are proud to specialise in equipment that measures and controls pressure in the motor sport and automotive industries, including on-vehicle systems such as CANdaq and wind tunnel systems which are manufactured by Chell. We have taken on a number of exciting, specialised projects for aerodynamic measurements and wind tunnel support.
For a number of years, Chell has supplied instrumentation for the power generation industry. We have developed most of our products as a result of customer enquiry, so if you cannot find what you need on our website, please contact us and we’ll see if we can develop an entirely new product to suit your needs. Some of the products we have supplied to the power generation industry include Air Ingress Monitors, Leak Rate Monitors, Absolute Pressure Transmitters, Impulse Line Integrity Test Systems, Custom Gas Panels, Calibration & Test Systems and Vacuum Dryers for high purity containment vessels.
We supply a huge range of gas turbine test products, including pressure fittings, tubing and hoses, pressure scanners, pressure scanner data acquisition systems, primary and transfer pressure standards, pressure displays and controllers, and multi-hole probes.
We have supplied instrumentation for wind tunnels throughout the UK, Europe and beyond. For multi-point pressure scanning, ESP Pressure scanners, CANdaq/QUADdaq miniature data acquisition systems & pressure scanner acquisition systems, I-Daq Analogue scanners, and many more, look no further than Chell. Our website contains a list of what else we can offer, but if you cannot find what you’re looking for, please contact us to speak with one of our specialists and we’ll see what we can do for you.

We also provide orbital welding services for the manufacture of UHP gas handling pipework, gas panels and manifolds.
Our Vacuum Fabrications division has been working very closely with the HSE for more than six years in order to gain certification for the design and construction of Pi marked vessels. Our UHV and UHP vessels are fabricated in-house to BS EN 13322-2 and all welders are qualified to BSEN 287-1 using procedures that meet ISO 15614-1 and ASME IX. We are pleased to commission new designs on request. These will require full approval by the Lloyds Register, a process that requires extensive testing (destructive and non-destructive). Please contact the team at Chell Instruments for further information.
