Error Limits
Error limits related to the nominal capacity (= maximum volume) indicated on
the instrument, obtained when instrument and distilled water are equilibrated
at ambient temperature (20 °C/68 °F). Testing takes place according DIN EN
ISO 8655-6 with a completely filled instrument and with uniform and smooth
dispensing up to the nominal or partial volume.

The maximum error limit for a single measurement can be calculated EL = A + 2 CV.
The maximum EL for 25 ml size is ±30 µl and for 50 ml size ±50 µl.
This proves that the error limits for Class A burettes per DIN EN ISO 385
are met.
Note:
Comparison of error limits:

The maximum resolution of the display
in the 25 ml instrument: 0.001 ml, and above a 20 ml titration volume is 0.01 ml;
in the 50 ml instrument: 0.002 ml, and above a 20 ml titration volume is 0.01 ml.
