All of our calibrations are NIST traceable, ensuring that our services adhere to the rigorous standards that help to verify an instrument’s accuracy.
Why is it Important to Calibrate Laboratory Equipment?
While many manufacturers calibrate their equipment before shipping, over time an instrument’s accuracy can shift altering the quality, efficacy, and safety of products and materials. Third-party calibration labs such as ATS help companies confirm their equipment’s accuracy, minimizing measurement uncertainty.
When Should You Calibrate Lab Equipment?
The frequency at which one should calibrate their lab equipment varies heavily with the type of equipment and its frequency of use. In general, experts recommend that businesses calibrate their regularly used equipment quarterly or semiannually. Equipment that is seldom used can be calibrated as infrequently as once a year to verify its accuracy. We recommend that our clients consider conducting additional calibrations if the equipment will be relied upon for a major project. Please remember that the following factors may require that your equipment receive more frequent calibrations:
- Extended periods of repeated use
- Environmental conditions such as humidity, temperature, and vibrations
- Signs of damage on the device
