Calibration and Maintenance of Measuring Equipment

How can you ensure the accuracy, quality and reliability of measuring and control equipment?

Measurement uncertainties are managed through timely and traceable calibration and maintenance of measuring equipment and instruments. A complex field governed by national, international and industry-specific standards, expert help is required to ensure the quality and validity of calibration services.

Ensure Accuracy

Calibration ensures that your equipment performs within approved tolerances and delivers on safety and quality. Incorrect measurements compromise not only your reputation, but also safety and quality. The calibration of measuring and control equipment by an accredited supplier means that measurements are verified and traceable, thereby fulfilling quality system requirements as given, for example, in the ISO 9000 standards.

Define and Meet Criteria

In a market where traceability and evidence of calibration is vital, expert support in defining the performance criteria and uncertainties of your equipment and measurements offers assurance of accuracy. It is also important to develop and build up a program to manage the calibration and maintenance of your measuring equipment.

The Service

Whether delivering services on-site, or in the laboratory, we have the skills, equipment and experience to conduct calibration and maintenance on the widest variety of measuring and control equipment. For example, those used to complete:

General measurement techniques
Data and electrical network measurements
RF/microwave measurements
Optical fibers
Energy, environmental and mechanical measurements

Optical Fiber Instruments Expertise

Our optical fiber fusion splicers and fiber cleavers maintenance expertise is built on long-term development and co-operation with equipment manufacturers and users. All maintenance is carried out in accordance with manufacturers’ methods and instructions, supported by inspection and repair methods developed by in-house. The strict requirements for cleanliness and precision are carefully taken into account.

Electric Power Analyzers

Our ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation covers electrical power at 50 Hz for power analyzers, as well as power sources. Should you need calibration for higher frequencies, our traceability goes up to 10 kHz.

Accreditations

Today, when most industries work to strict standards and regulations, it is important to work with appropriately qualified partners. SGS Fimko's calibration laboratory is a calibration laboratory K001 accredited by the FINAS accreditation service, accreditation requirement SFS-EN ISO / IEC 17025. You can check our valid accreditation scope from the FINAS website. ISO/IEC 17025 accredited, our methods and personnel are assessed regularly by the accreditation body. Accredited calibrations are recognized in quality system audits throughout the world.

Our cost-effective and precise calibrations and equipment maintenance services, supported by online data management services are available standalone, or in combination, to meet customer specific requirements.

Both accredited and non-accredited calibrations can be conducted on-site, enabling the quick return of equipment to service.
