The set standard deviation, repeatability and offset of absolute gravimeter A10-008 were assessed at the Walferdange Underground Laboratory for Geodynamics (WULG) in Luxembourg. Analysis of the data indicates that the instrument performed within the specifications of the manufacturer. For A10-008, the average set standard deviation was (1.6 ± 0.6) µGal (1Gal ≡ 1 cm s−2), the average repeatability was (2.9 ± 1.5) µGal, and the average offset compared to absolute gravimeter FG5-216 was (3.2 ± 3.5) µGal.
