Dear Matt, It’s a good idea to have a calibration factor rather than adjustment as it allows a calibration history to be built up, that shows long term drift of the meter & sensor. This enables you to get a good estimate of the uncertainty of measurement if you’re doing a Guide to Uncertainty in Measurement compliant budget.

Regards

Simon

These people will certify if the equipment is within calibration but they will not adjust it to improve it if it is out of calibration.

Dear  list

We recently acquired the Ophir range of laser power measurement devices.

Could anyone let me know if there are independent calibration services out there.

 

We were advised our meters would be away for 5 weeks!

We also have had faults reported on our heads, which is surprising as these haven’t had heavy use

 

Any comments on /off list

 

Thanks

Matt
