Sometimes new instrument calibration service will be a part of legal compliance and at other times you will need to do changes in the instrument over time. In such cases, you will need to track calibration data from the time of the initial purchase.

Inaccurate equipment can result in the acceptance of incorrect results. A seemingly insignificant error may be magnified into something much larger down the line. Neglecting calibration can cause direct economic losses, production downtime, quality problems and product recalls. Employee and customer safety may become at risk. 

Getting a test equipment calibrated reduces costs and enhances efficiency in operations. It increases a company’s reputation for quality and safety, and will fulfil any regulatory or contractual obligations. 

We suggest that you maintain a calibration history from day one and re-calibrate once a year. This enables you to compare your measurement results over time. However it depends on the application and users requirements.  

Accredited Calibration involves approval from national and international bodies, such as the NATA, Traceable calibration is performed according to these same standards, and ensures that calibration results are correct, but an official governing body does not explicitly approve the results. However traceability of the master standard used will be provided.  

A calibration certificate consists of details such as what was calibrated, who performed the calibration, when and where the calibration was performed and how it was performed. The results shown on a calibration certificate are only valid at the time of calibration.

Yes, we can provide On-site calibration
service and our trained engineers can help reduce downtime. 

A detailed quality policy will be needed that fulfils the requirements of ISO 17025, including the ambient conditions of the physical premises, methodology, procedures, traceability, technical skills, and record documents.

Instrument calibration is a process that is done by using an existing value, known as a calibrator. The process involves using the instrument to create a measurement and comparing said measurement with the standard calibrator. The result establishes the relationship between the calibrators measurement technique and that of the instrument.

There are two primary objectives to instrument calibration. The first is to determine the accuracy of the instrument itself. The second is to determine the traceability of the measurement, allowing one to understand and check if the device requires repair. This is why calibration of measuring instruments is extremely important.

There are multiple types of calibration when it comes to instrument calibration services. These include:

· Pressure calibration

· Pipette calibration

· Flow calibration

· Electrical calibration

· Temperature calibration and

· Mechanical calibration

At Zenith Instruments, we provide each of these services for calibration in Australia.
