Why calibrate flowmeters?
A flowmeter measures the rate that fluid or gas moves through it. Test and measurement professionals use them in a wide variety of applications where accurate flow measurements are critical, including (but not limited to) HVAC, energy and utilities, water management, aerospace, agriculture and the pharmaceutical industry. In applications like these, it’s important to calibrate the flowmeters that make the measurements. Regular calibrations assure...

MET/CONNECT Calibration Integration Software
MET/CONNECT, our new calibration management software API, allows you to use MET/CAL software without an asset management application. In other words, you no longer need MET/TEAM Test Equipment Asset Management Software to run MET/CAL if you already use a different asset manager or if an alternative solution better fits your requirements. We’re partnering with other calibration asset management software vendors so you can use MET/CAL as you want to,...

Customers and people at Fluke often ask me questions about calibration intervals:
How often should a unit be sent back for recalibration?
Are there any “rules” for this?
A few years ago, I wrote an application note on establishing calibration intervals on Fluke products, but there still seems to be some confusion on this issue.
What is a calibration interval?
A calibration interval is the period of time established for a test instrument to be returned for recalibration. We recalibrate...

Technician calibrating humidity sensors using the Fluke 5128A humidity generator / calibrator
Humidity sensors are a crucial component of quality control in a manufacturing environment. Often, they are found in “clean rooms” (not to be confused with operating rooms) where a tightly controlled environment — meaning controlled temperature, humidity, and air purity — is critical to product quality and reduction of environmental hazard risks.
Humidity sensors can pose some...

Technician using the Fluke 3130 calibrator to perform an equipment verification or intermediate check per ISO 17025
Intermediate Checks per ISO 17025 (aka “equipment verifications”) are an often-overlooked, but vitally important part of maintaining accurate measurements for manufacturers. This process can catch errors in your sensors and measurement devices before they become serious problems. An increasing number of companies are starting to catch on to the importance of performing...

The 8270A and 8370A Modular High-Pressure Controllers provide the widest pressure calibration workload coverage in an automated pressure controller. The 8270A and 8370A are often purchased to replace a traditional deadweight tester or pressure comparator, and they most often appeal to experts who want a flexible system with the capability for expansion and automation.
There are several questions frequently asked by calibration experts who are considering an upgrade. This overview will quickly...

Customers often request the most accurate piece of equipment available, but the most accurate product is not always the best solution for their needs. If you are planning to purchase a new pressure controller for production, there are several areas that you should consider before determining which piece of equipment is right for your use case.
When purchasing a pressure controller, it’s important to consider your accuracy and pressure needs, the product’s environment, expected uptime,...
