Specific saturation magnetization σS is an important parameter of ferromagnetic materials. It is in principle independent of the structure and shape of the sample. There are two ways to calibrate devices for determining σS: the standard method, using a calibrated magnetic moment standard, or an alternative method, using a special moment coil. This paper presents a calibration method used at Czech Metrology Institute for calibration of Koerzimat 1.096 using a special moment coil. Special attention is given to a description of the special moment coils used for Koerzimat 1.096 calibration, and to analysis of sources of uncertainty. Calibration expanded uncertainty of 0.4 up to 0.6 % can be achieved using this method.
