Calibration services
Calibration services
To complement the production facilities at Brannan, a
comprehensive calibration service is available for a variety
of instruments such as digital max mins and weatherstations,
fridge or freezer thermometers and wall thermometers.
In addition, we are able to calibrate many other measuring
instruments, including pressure gauges and hydrometers.
This service is available, for an additional charge, at time of
product’s purchase or for customers own existing instruments.
Please contact our Sales Team to discuss the suitability of your
instrument for calibration.
What is a calibration and why calibrate?
•
•
•
A calibration is a procedure in which an instrument is tested to ensure it
conforms with a recognised standard and is used to verify the accuracy of an instrument.
By comparing an instrument of a known value against a second instrument (unit under test), the difference
can be calculated and suitable corrections determined.
Calibration points can be drawn on a graph and joined together to form a calibration curve. This allows the
user to estimate the corrections at points where a calibration value has not been measured.
Re-calibration service
We offer a re-calibration service for customers’ own instruments. The calibration frequency for a specific
thermometer is up to the individual customer however it should be based on factors such as:
-
The environment in which the instrument is used,
The frequency of use and
The level of confidence required in the readings taken from the customers’ process.
To complement our calibration services, we are able to supply packaging for use when sending your instrument
to us to help reduce the risk of breakage during transit.
