Calibration of Measuring Instruments
A correctly calibrated measuring instrument plays a key role in maintaining efficiency, quality, and safety in any operation. We offer professional calibration of measuring instruments, both on-site at the customer’s location and at our own facilities. Our service ensures that instruments meet current requirements and standards – for a safer everyday life.
What is calibration and why is it important?
In practice, calibration means comparing a measuring instrument with a traceable reference standard to ensure that the instrument’s readings are accurate. It is a fundamental process for detecting and reducing measurement uncertainty – something that helps you avoid incorrect measurement values, which could lead to costly mistakes or safety risks.
How often a measuring instrument should be calibrated depends on several factors, including how often it is used, the environment in which it operates, and the requirements set by manufacturers, authorities, or internal quality procedures. For instruments such as pressure gauges, voltage testers, and multimeters, checks are recommended at least once a year. In more demanding environments, shorter intervals may be necessary.
DEKRA is accredited by
SWEDAC
in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025, which means that parts of our methods meet international requirements. After calibration, you will receive a calibration certificate that documents measurement uncertainty and traceability – an important element for audits and quality controls. For non-accredited methods, a certificate of traceability is provided.
How does our service work?
On-site calibration
For instruments that are bulky, permanently installed, or where downtime must be minimized, we send our experts to your site. The process is carried out quickly, efficiently, and safely – without unnecessary disruption to your production.
Calibration in our workshop
For instruments that can easily be shipped, we offer calibration at our workshop in Hedemora. We handle the entire process – from reception to issuing the calibration certificate – and return your instruments together with documentation.
Our measuring instrument calibration services
We have experience with a wide range of measuring instruments commonly used in technical and industrial environments. Below are some of the most common types we handle, and why precise adjustment is crucial.
Multimeters and voltage testers are essential tools for electrical measurements in troubleshooting, installation, and maintenance. Since they are used in environments where precision and safety are critical, regular calibration is necessary to ensure reliable readings.
We check instruments such as FLUKE according to the manufacturer’s specifications to ensure that each measuring function meets the applicable requirements. The calibration is documented with a certificate clearly showing the results – providing reassurance both in daily work and during audits.
We also offer calibration services for a wide range of equipment and other measuring instruments
