Calibration

Upon calibration, the relation between the value of a quantity indicated using a measurement standard and the value indicated by the instrument being calibrated is established under specified fixed conditions, i.e., calibration tells you how much deviation you can expect from the indication of your measuring instrument.

  1. First, choose the measuring instrument you would like to calibrate.
  2. Then, contact Metrosert’s customer service.
  3. We will inform you of the scope and cost of the service.
  4. Next, bring the instrument for calibration or invite our specialist to your location.
  5. Metrosert specialists will then calibrate the instrument.
  6. As a result, you will receive a calibration certificate along with information on how much your measuring instrument reading deviates from expected true value. You can then decide on the suitability of the instrument for use.
  7. Schedule your next calibration – the web based environment MÕIS for managing measuring instruments can assist you in this regard.
