Experience key to finding a trusted calibration laboratory

Running process operations requires constant vigilance when it comes to monitoring and measuring with accurate, well maintained test instruments. When seeking out an instrument calibration laboratory that can fulfill operational requirements, it helps to find one with a breadth and depth of services.

For example, the company should offer a wide range of in-house and on-site calibration services including temperature, humidity, dew point, pressure, flow, gas, particles, and analytical concerns. Utilizing its on-site calibration services means you can minimize interruptions to your business, reduce instrument downtime, and mitigate the need for spares.

Any good lab understands that having accurate instruments are critical for your business. Whether you’re purchasing a brand-new product, require service to your existing instruments or need on-site support, its team will ensure your instruments are functioning at optimum capacity.

Premium calibration services accredited to ISO/IEC 17025 by the American Association of Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA), one of the most stringent accreditation authorities accepted worldwide, provides the assurance that the lab is going to do the right job protecting your operational assets.

Fully trained metrologists in the lab that use only state-of-the-art equipment from proven leaders in the industry such as Fluke Calibration, Thunder Scientific, and Fluke Electronics are another benchmark. By utilizing leading-edge technology, the lab ensures your instruments will operate at peak efficiency and provide the results you expect every time.

Instrument error can occur due to a variety of factors such as drift, the environment, electrical supply, and process changes. Trustworthy metrologists ensure that your instruments are providing accurate measurements and achieve the highest level of quality standards.
