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 di昀昀erence
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 o昀昀er a re-calibration service for customers’ own instruments. The calibration frequency for a speci昀椀c
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.
The level of con昀椀dence required in the readings taken from the customers’ process.
