Every industrial measurement device needs regular calibration to ensure it continues to work efficiently and deliver accurate results in the long term – and to keep your operations compliant. Whatever parameter you are measuring and wherever your device is located, professional calibrations performed by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) will help you get more for your money.
Everything worth measuring is worth measuring right
Professional calibration is the backbone of any industry where highly accurate measurement devices are a critical part of ensuring the safety, efficiency, and quality of processes. When your instruments are properly calibrated and adjusted, you can be confident in the results they produce because you are ensuring accuracy and minimizing measurement uncertainty.
With mission-critical instruments, it makes sense to choose a calibration partner with the capabilities and expertise to provide you with a holistic service that goes beyond simply calibrating your devices and handing them back to you.
A holistic service gives you the best return on investment
Vaisala instruments are renowned for their long-term stability and accuracy. To keep them in perfect working order, we offer a range of calibration and maintenance services so they stay accurate throughout their lifetime.
“As the OEM, we know our instruments inside out, so it makes sense to trust us to look after them so that you get the best return on your investment,” says Ilkka Kotamäki, Senior Technical Manager, Vaisala.
Whether you need accredited or standard calibration, with Vaisala you’ll always get fast, professional service. What’s more, we go beyond simply calibrating your instruments. Our technicians will perform functional testing and take care of any adjustments to make sure your instrument continues to serve you long into the future. We also handle processes like firmware updates, which a third-party vendor wouldn’t be capable of performing.
And for every single calibration, you will always receive a calibration certificate. This document is critical for traceability, compliance, and quality assurance purposes.
Standard or accredited calibration?
Vaisala offers both ISO/IEC 17025 accredited calibrations and ISO 9001 standard calibrations. Regulatory compliance is essential for many Vaisala customers, particularly those in industries like pharmaceuticals and life sciences. Vaisala’s accredited calibrations are performed according to ISO/IEC17025, guaranteeing certified compliance.
What calibrations does Vaisala offer?
Our calibration capabilities cover every important parameter used in industrial measurements, including:
- Humidity
- Dew point
- Carbon dioxide
- Hydrogen peroxide
- Pressure
- Temperature
Regular professional calibration is particularly important in applications that use hydrogen peroxide, such as bio-decontamination, because of the harsh environments that sensors are exposed to. Vaisala’s calibration services can increase the safety of your operations and ensure accurate long-term stability even in the harshest process conditions.
As part of the calibration service for hydrogen peroxide instruments, Vaisala technicians always change the sensor and filter and perform both as-found and as-left calibrations according to ISO 9001 standards. Your device’s firmware will also be updated if needed. In essence, you will receive a like-new product that will provide continuous measurement accuracy and stability as well as improve process quality.
Avoid costly process downtime with field services
On-site services help you to maximize reliability and profitability by minimizing the costly downtime caused by having to send your devices away for calibration. Vaisala Field Services professionals can visit your site to swap probes and perform calibrations, reducing process downtime to a matter of seconds. On-site calibration is a significant benefit for applications such as data centers and semiconductor manufacturing sites, where downtime is simply not an option.
We carry out both single and multi-point field calibrations, measuring critical parameters such as dew point, temperature, and pressure using Vaisala’s own reference instruments and Insight software.
This is particularly beneficial if you use a continuous monitoring system (CMS) in a GxP-regulated environment. For customers using the Vaisala ViewLinc CMS, Vaisala Field Services can perform on-site calibration as part of our Lifecycle Services offering. With field calibrations Vaisala technicians can verify on site that the instruments are operating properly and providing reliable measurements.
