Find certified Fluke calibration service in Australia—what “certified” means, who’s authorised, NATA-accredited options, costs, and how to book. < Back Where to Find Certified Fluke Calibration Service in Australia Fluke instruments are trusted worldwide for their precision in electrical, temperature, pressure, and process measurement. But even the most reliable devices drift over time, leading to inaccurate readings, operational inefficiencies, and compliance risks. This is where Fluke calibration services come in. Calibration ensures that instruments perform within specified tolerances, providing traceable results aligned with international measurement standards. In industries like pharmaceuticals, biotech, food and beverage, manufacturing, and oil and gas, accurate measurements aren’t optional; they are critical to safety, compliance, and efficiency. With more than 60 years of experience, CISCAL provides NATA accredited, ISO/IEC 17025 certified calibration services across Australia. From multimeters to process calibrators, we ensure your Fluke instruments deliver the accuracy and reliability you need. What Certified Fluke Calibration Means There are Two Valid Paths in Australia: Fluke-authorized service ( brand route ). Fluke directs Australian customers to Trescal as its Authorized Repair and Calibration Service Agent. Use this when you need warranty work, proprietary adjustments, or access to brand-specific fixtures/procedures only available to the authorized partner. NATA-accredited ISO/IEC 17025 calibration ( compliance route ). Any NATA-accredited lab with the right scope can calibrate Fluke instruments with SI traceability and stated uncertainty—accepted by auditors and regulators across Australia. Search via NATA’s public Find organisation directory and filter by electrical/instrument categories. When to Choose Which? Warranty, brand-only adjustments, or Fluke repair? Choose authorized ( Trescal ). Routine, traceable calibration for audits ( ISO, GMP, HACCP, utilities ) ? A NATA-accredited lab is generally suitable. ( NMI underpins SI traceability nationally. ) The Role of NATA Accreditation in Fluke Calibration In Australia, calibration quality is guaranteed through NATA accreditation. Laboratories accredited by the National Association of Testing Authorities ( NATA ) must comply with ISO/IEC 17025 , the global standard for testing and calibration. What NATA Accreditation Ensures: Results are traceable to international standards.Certificates are legally recognized in audits and inspections. Processes are regularly assessed for competence and reliability. CISCAL has held NATA Accreditation No. 411 since 1963, making us one of the most trusted calibration service providers in the country. Fluke Instruments We Calibrate CISCAL’s wide scope of accreditation allows us to calibrate an extensive range of Fluke equipment, including: Multimeters ( handheld and bench models ) Clamp meters Electrical testers ( insulation, continuity, earth testers ) Process calibrators ( pressure, temperature, loop ) Oscilloscopes Power quality analyzers Temperature probes and sensors Pressure calibrators Whether for routine compliance or critical testing, CISCAL ensures your Fluke devices remain accurate and audit ready. How Often Should You Calibrate Fluke Instruments? Annually, it is typical for multimeters and clamp meters; shorten the interval for heavy use, harsh environments, critical measurements, or after repair/shock. ( Manufacturers commonly recommend 12-month cycles for general test gear.) If you’re in regulated environments ( GMP, utilities, high-risk electrical work ), use a risk-based interval e.g., 6 to 12 months guided by usage hours, drift history, and audit expectations. Checklist to Choose the Right Provider Accreditation & scope: For NATA labs, confirm ISO/IEC 17025 scope covers multimeters, clamp meters, insulation testers, oscilloscopes and the ranges you need; look for the NATA mark on certificates. Turnaround & logistics: Ask about typical lead times, on-site options, pickup/delivery, and expedite tiers. ( Some Australian labs advertise <1-week standard lead times. ) Capabilities: If you run broader fleets ( torque, temperature, pressure ), check out one-stop coverage. Data & certificates: R equire uncertainty, traceability, methods, and ( if you need it ) a statement of conformity to your tolerance. Asset management: Prefer a portal for certificates, due-date reminders, and fleet reporting. Geo fit: Confirm coverage for Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and your regional sites. Step-by-step: Looking a Certified Fluke Calibration A) If you need Fluke-authorized service (warranty/brand-specific): Go to Fluke Repair Services → choose Australia. Submit the webform / request an RMA; confirm warranty scope and pricing. Ship or drop-off to the listed service Centre; approve any repair/adjustment quote. Receive the tool back with service report and calibration documentation. B) If a NATA-accredited calibration suits (audit/compliance): Open NATA “Find organization” and filter by Calibration → Electrical / Indicating & recording instruments and your state. Shortlist labs by scope & uncertainty; confirm ranges match your instrument specs. Book on-site or send-in; include your required tolerances and any conformity statement needs. Receive a NATA-endorsed certificate with uncertainty and traceability stated. Industry/Regulatory Context (AU) NMI (Department of Industry) runs Australia’s measurement system, maintaining national standards and providing traceability to the SI—the basis for credible calibration certificates. Many Australian quality systems (ISO 9001, GMP, HACCP, utilities) expect traceable, uncertainty-stated results, which NATA-endorsed certificates provide. Also note the sector scale: Manufacturing employs ~5.9% of Australia’s workforce, underscoring broad demand for reliable test gear. CISCAL as a NATA-accredited Option for Fluke Instruments CISCAL provides NATA-accredited (Accreditation No. 411) calibration with multi-parameter scope, NSW/VIC/QLD coverage and national reach. Use us for routine, traceable calibration of Fluke instruments (multimeters, clamp meters, insulation testers, scopes, temperature/pressure/torque, and more). Note: For warranty or proprietary Fluke repairs/brand-authorised adjustments, use Trescal, as directed by Fluke. For ongoing audit-ready calibration and fleet management, CISCAL can service your Fluke tools and consolidate certificates in the CISCAL SMART Portal. Call 1300 225 542. Book Routine Fluke Calibration Pricing & Turnaround: What to Expect Lead times vary by provider, workload, and whether repair/adjustment is required. Many Australian labs quote standard turnaround under a week, with expedite options (same/next day) at premium rates; authorized repair queues can be longer if parts are needed. Always confirm scope, uncertainty, and whether on-site calibration is available to reduce downtime. FAQs Previous Next

Discover the most common errors in gas detector calibration and how they impact safety, and compliance in Australian industries. < Back Common Errors in Gas Detector Calibration Gas detector calibration is the process of adjusting a detector’s readings by comparing them to a more accurate, traceable reference gas so results are trustworthy for safety and compliance. In Australia, auditors expect ISO/IEC 17025 traceability on certificates from NATA-accredited providers. What is Gas Detector Calibration? Calibrating a gas detector sets its zero and span so it reads the right value when exposed to a known gas. In Australia that means using correct gas, flow and procedure, recording results, and keeping NATA-endorsed evidence that’s traceable to national standards. Many sites require a daily bump test and monthly quarterly calibrations, driven by risk and manufacturer instructions. Why Calibration Matters in Australia WHS laws place a duty on PCBUs to manage risks. Approved Codes of Practice ( confined spaces; hazardous chemicals ) outline practical testing steps and sampling methods; following them is an accepted way to meet the Regulations. Confined-space mis-testing can be fatal. Safe Work Australia’s 2025 release confirms 188 traumatic injury fatalities in 2024 regulators scrutinise plant safety records and evidence of control. The Most Common Calibration Errors Below are the failure modes we see across labs, plants and field teams in Australia and how to fix them. 1) Skipping bump tests before use Symptom: Detector “works on paper” but doesn’t alarm to gas on shift. Cause: No functional challenge before entry. Fix: Enforce a pre-use bump test ( or before each shift ). Use docking stations to automate tests, logs and certificates. 2) Using expired or incorrect calibration gas Symptom: Readings drift after “successful” calibration. Cause: Expired cylinders; wrong balance gas ( air vs N₂ ) or wrong concentration. Reactive mixes ( e.g., H₂S, Cl₂ ) can change over time. Fix: Track expiry and lot; match gas matrix and set-point to the sensor spec; store cylinders correctly. 3) Wrong flow rate or regulator type Symptom: Slow or unstable response; calibration won’t settle. Cause: Using a fixed-flow regulator on a pumped instrument ( or vice-versa ), or using the wrong flow. Fix: For pumped instruments use a demand-flow regulator; for diffusion instruments, a fixed-flow set to the manufacturer-specified rate. Verify flow with a calibrator. 4) Calibrating in unsuitable environments Symptom: Results vary between benches or between days. Cause: Wind, heat, humidity; silicone/solvent vapours; nearby sources of contaminants. Fix: Calibrate in a clean, ventilated spot; allow temperature stabilisation; keep silicones, solvents and aerosols away, these can poison catalytic LEL sensors. 5) Poor zero/span procedure Symptom: Zero offsets; overshoot; inconsistent span. Cause: No warm-up; skipping fresh-air zero; not waiting for stable readings. Fix: Standardise the SOP: warm-up, fresh-air zero, span at the correct flow until stable, document acceptance ranges. Docking systems help make steps repeatable. 6) Confusing %LEL with ppm Symptom: Wrong alarm set-points on multi-gas units; flammables checked in ppm charts, toxics in %LEL by mistake. Cause: Unit mix-ups %LEL is for flammability, ppm is typical for toxic gases. Fix: Put the units on the work instruction, and validate alarms after calibration. 7) Ignoring cross-sensitivity & sensor poisoning Symptom: CO alarms in battery rooms; PID VOC readings in solvent-rich air are “too high.” Cause: Non-target gases affect the sensor ( e.g., H₂ interferes with CO ); silicones/lead/sulphur can poison pellistors. Fix: Check the maker’s cross-sens tables; choose filtered or H₂-compensated sensors; verify with the correct target gas. 8) Not updating intervals after sensor replacement or harsh exposure Symptom: Fresh sensor drifts early; over-range exposure followed by quiet failures. Cause: Intervals remain “ business as usual ” after a change-out, shock, poisoning or over-range event. Fix: Shorten intervals temporarily and re-establish stability; record the trigger in the asset system. 9) Inadequate record-keeping & traceability Symptom: Audit failures; “ no evidence ” of calibration, gas lot, or uncertainty. Cause: Paper logbooks only; no NATA-endorsed reports; missing gas details. Fix: Keep certificates with as-found/as-left, uncertainty, reference IDs and NATA traceability; use docking stations/portals for automated logs. 10) Relying on non-accredited providers Symptom: Certificates rejected by clients or regulators. Cause: Results not issued under ISO/IEC 17025; no evidence of SI traceability. Fix: Use a NATA-accredited lab to check the scope and the endorsement. 11) No confined-space pre-entry test plan Symptom: Atmosphere tested only at head height or after entry. Cause: No plan for remote sampling, top-middle-bottom stratification, and continuous monitoring. Fix: Follow the Model Code of Practice Confined Spaces and your jurisdiction’s code. Consequences of Calibration Errors Safety: False negatives or false positives in confined spaces expose workers to toxic or flammable atmospheres. The Confined Spaces Code sets expectations for testing and monitoring methods. Compliance: Poor practice can trigger improvement notices or stop-work orders; inspectors expect traceable, competent calibrations and pre-entry testing. a Operations: Downtime and rework add cost. National WHS statistics underline the scale of harm and the scrutiny on plant-related risks. Australian Standards, Codes & Frequency Guidance AS/NZS 60079.29.2 : selection, installation, use and maintenance of flammable-gas and oxygen detectors ( your go-to maintenance reference ). AS/NZS 60079.29.1 : performance requirements for flammable-gas detectors ( equipment performance ). Model Code of Practice confined Spaces : test from outside, sample different levels, and keep monitoring while occupied ( updated Nov 2024 ). Managing risks of hazardous chemicals : approved code that explains how codes support WHS duties. Frequency: standards and codes set methods and duties, not fixed intervals. Intervals are risk-based and guided by manufacturer instructions and use conditions . How to get Calibration Right ( Step-by-step ) Check environment & gas : Choose a clean area; confirm cylinder concentration, balance gas, lot & expiry; consider temperature. Inspect the instrument : Battery, filters, sample lines, pump ( if fitted ). Fresh-air zero & warm-up : Stabilise, then zero in clean air. Bump test : Challenge all sensors; confirm alarms/response time before calibration. Apply span gas correctly : Use the right regulator type/flow; wait for a stable span at each point. Save results : Store as-found/as-left, uncertainty, gas lot/expiry, and technician ID on a NATA-endorsed certificate ( or in your dock ). Verify : Run a post-cal bump or check. Set next due date : Base it on risk, use and any recent events ( over-range, shock, replacement ). Get your gas calibration done right!

Learn when and how to perform laser calibration. Ensure compliance, precision, and safety for Australian industries and labs. < Back Laser Calibration: When and How to Do It Use a risk-based interval typical practice: 6 to 12 months for regulated work; shorter if critical, high-use, or harsh environments. A fixed number isn’t mandated by ISO/IEC 17025, intervals must be justified and records kept. What triggers a calibration? On installation/commissioning, after any impact/repair, after major software/firmware changes, when drift is detected, and at your defined interval. Audit-ready results in Australia: Use labs with NATA-endorsed certificates showing SI traceability via Australia’s National Measurement Institute ( NMI ), with measurement uncertainty reported. Learn about more in CISCAL services What is Laser Calibration? Laser calibration is a comparison of your instrument’s readings against a more accurate, traceable reference to quantify error and report expanded uncertainty ( 95% confidence ). In Australia, NATA requires metrological traceability to SI units, typically through NMI, and ISO/IEC 17025 sets the competence framework labs are assessed against. Common Categories: Dimensional: Laser interferometry for machine tools/CMM axes; generates compensation tables to correct positioning errors. Radiometric: Laser power/energy meters verified against NMI-traceable standards ; checks responsivity and linearity. Spectral: Wavelength checks of lasers/wavelength meters against stabilised references or transfer standards; uncertainty stated in nanometres per the lab’s scope. Beam diagnostics: Beam profile/divergence/M² checks to ensure process or research performance matches spec. Construction lasers ( levels ): Practical level/line checks and, if out, full lab calibration. Compliance in Australia NATA & ISO/IEC 17025: NATA accredits labs to ISO/IEC 17025, providing independent assurance that methods, uncertainty, and traceability are sound. NATA-endorsed certificates are widely recognised, including via ILAC. Traceability & uncertainty: NATA’s Metrological Traceability Policy explains how results must be linked to national standards ( commonly NMI ) and how uncertainty is established and reported. Laser safety labelling/classification: Follow ARPANSA guidance and AS/NZS IEC 60825 series ( equipment classification, user guidance ). Workplace controls ( construction ): Safe Work Australia states Class 3B and 4 lasers must not be used for construction work. Use Class 1/1M/1C/2/2M/3R only. Sector drivers: TGA adopts PIC/S GMP for medicines ( calibrated, traceable instruments and records ); FSANZ requires at least one thermometer accurate to ±1 °C in food businesses ( handy for instrument verification in HACCP ). When to Calibrate: By Risk & Use Case Set intervals with evidence. Consider safety/quality risk, usage hours, environment ( heat, vibration ), historical drift, firmware changes, and audit expectations. Document the rationale in your SOP. Application Typical triggers Suggested interval (guide only) Standard/driver Machine tools / CMM axes Commissioning, after crash or ball-screw work; tolerance changes 6–12 months for production; shorter if tight tolerances ISO/IEC 17025 conformity; OEM specs; NATA traceability; laser interferometer methods per vendor guidance. Laser power/energy meters Before validation/R&D campaigns; after sensor replacement/impact 6–12 months; verify at operating wavelengths and expected ranges NATA traceability via NMI optical services; lab scopes list ranges/uncertainties. Wavelength meters/spectrometers Before critical experiments; after firmware/hardware change ≈12 months for regulated labs; risk-based in research NMI optical standards; NATA-endorsed certificates show SI traceability and uncertainty. Construction laser levels After drops/shock; if site check fails Site check monthly; lab calibration as per contract/spec Field check per RedBack method; if out, book NATA calibration. How to Calibrate: Procedures and Checklists A. Laser Interferometry (Machine Positioning) What you’re doing: Using a laser interferometer ( or tracker with interferometry ) to measure linear errors, backlash, straightness, squareness, pitch/yaw/roll and then generating axis compensation tables in the controller. Set-up essentials ( checklist ): Stable environment ( temp, air flow ); warm-up machine and optics. Align optical path; use a retroreflector/SMR or plane mirror targets. Log environmentals ( air temp/pressure/humidity ) for refractive index compensation. Verify laser reference status and traceability; check beam quality. Run-through ( summary ): Baseline sweep on each axis ( up/down ) for linear error and reversal. Cross-tests for straightness and squareness. Rotary/axis tests if applicable. Upload compensation tables; re-run for as-left verification; issue uncertainty-backed report. Many Australian shops use systems like Renishaw XL-80 or API trackers; both depend on interferometry with traceable wavelength standards. B. Laser power/energy meters Aim: Compare DUT readings to a NATA-traceable reference at relevant wavelengths and power/energy levels; check linearity and responsivity; report expanded uncertainty ( k≈2 ). Use NMI-traceable standards or transfer artefacts. Steps ( bench ): Inspect sensor head; confirm damage/contamination-free. Stabilise source; set wavelength compensation. Apply points across the working range ( up/down ); hold steady; record as-found. If allowed, adjust cal factors; repeat for as-left; capture ambient conditions and drift notes. Include traceability and uncertainty budget on the certificate. C. Wavelength ( Lasers/Wavelength Meters ) Aim: Validate wavelength accuracy against stabilised references ( e.g., iodine-stabilised He-Ne or frequency-comb-derived transfer standards ) or accredited transfer standards; verify across your working range; report uncertainty in nm. Use a lab with appropriate scope. Steps: Warm-up the DUT; set to nominal lines ( e.g., 632.8 nm ). Compare to reference; note offsets; repeat across range. Report as-found/as-left, stability, and uncertainty with full traceability chain. D. Field Check for Construction Laser Levels ( Quick Site Method ) Use when you need a fast go/no-go on site. 5-step check ( horizontal line ): Set the laser ~10 m from a wall; mark the beam. Rotate 90°; mark again; repeat for 180° and 270°. All marks should align within the maker’s tolerance. If out, don’t “tweak” in the field, book a NATA calibration. After knocks/drops, re-check before use. Laser calibration with CISCAL Documentation Auditors Expect Have these items on every certificate/SOP checklist: NATA-endorsed certificate and scope reference ( ranges and CMCs ). SI traceability statement ( chain to NMI or another NMI via ILAC ). Method ( interferometry, radiometry, spectral ), as-found/as-left data, and environmental conditions. Expanded uncertainty ( coverage factor ) and the decision rule used. Technician and reviewer sign-off; due date/next interval; digital record retention. Safety & legal obligations in AU Laser safety classes: Follow AS/NZS IEC 60825 classification and ARPANSA guidance. Label devices with class, power, wavelength, use signs, and implement controls per class. Construction work: Do not use Class 3B or 4 lasers for construction tasks; they present significant eye/skin hazards and require strict controls. Training: Consider Laser Safety Officer/Supervisor training and consult your state/territory regulator for local requirements. Sector Call-outs Pharma/biotech: The TGA adopts PIC/S GMP; keep periodicity risk-based and show it in your validation/CAPA trail. Reference NATA-endorsed calibration in your VMP/SOPs. Food & beverage: FSANZ requires at least one probe thermometer accurate to ±1 °C; if you use IR “laser” thermometers for checks, validate against a probe and document. Research & engineering labs: Mixed dimensional/spectral/power work—ensure the lab’s scope actually covers your range and uncertainty needs. NMI optical and length services are the national reference. Choosing a Provider Quick checklist: NATA-accredited for the optical/laser scope you need ( check the lab’s Scope of Accreditation ). Traceability to NMI stated on certificates. Fit-for-purpose uncertainty at your wavelength/power/range. On-site vs lab capability ( e.g., on-site interferometry; lab-grade radiometry ). Turnaround & logistics that suit validation windows. Digital certificates/asset portal for audits. Common Drift Causes & Troubleshooting Heat and air turbulence shifting interferometer paths, control HVAC, allow warm-up. Vibration and transport shock, use isolation mounts; re-check after moves/impacts. Optics contamination, clean lenses/windows per OEM. Fibre connector wear, inspect ferrules; replace worn leads. Detector ageing ( power meters ), trend responsivity over time; adjust intervals if drift grows. Firmware changes, treated as a calibration trigger with as-found/as-left records. Glossary Traceability: An unbroken chain of comparisons to standards, with stated uncertainties, up to SI units ( usually via NMI in Australia ). Expanded uncertainty ( 95% CL ): Reported uncertainty multiplied by a coverage factor, often k≈2, giving ~95% confidence. Responsivity: Ratio of detector output to incident optical power ( e.g., V/W ). Linearity: How constant responsibility is across the operating range Beam profile: Intensity distribution across the beam cross-section. Compensation table: Controller file that corrects axis errors at positions. MPE: Maximum Permissible Exposure, safety concept defined in the laser standards/guides.

Learn expert tips for accurate pressure gauge calibration. Ensure compliance, reliability, and safety in Australian industries. < Back Pressure Gauge Calibration Tips for Accuracy Pressure gauge calibration means checking a gauge against a more accurate, traceable reference so you can quantify (and if allowed, adjust) error for safe, compliant operation in Australia. In practice you compare readings with a deadweight tester (piston gauge) or a pressure comparator + digital reference, with results traceable to national standards via NATA-recognised chains to the National Measurement Institute (NMI). Fast how-to: Isolate the gauge, connect to a reference, apply pressure at defined points up/down, record “as-found”, adjust if permitted, re-test “as-left”, report with uncertainty and traceability. Stay compliant and precise with CISCAL’s NATA-accredited pressure gauge calibration services. We cover NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, TAS and NT with fast turnaround and digital certificates. Book your service today. What is Pressure Gauge Calibration? Calibration is a comparison : your pressure gauge ( Bourdon tube gauge, differential, diaphragm, digital gauge or pressure transducer ) is checked against a reference whose performance is known and traceable to national standards. In Australia, traceability requirements are set out by NATA and rely on chains linking to NMI reference standards , typically documented on your certificate. Labs demonstrating competence do so under ISO/IEC 17025. Why it matters: Better calibration means safer plant, fewer deviations, cleaner audits, and less downtime. NMI’s service scope spans high vacuum to 500 MPa with uncertainties as low as 0.0010%, that sets a realistic ceiling for what’s achievable in Australia. Ensure accuracy and compliance, get your pressure gauges calibrated by CISCAL Australian Standards & Regulatory Context ISO/IEC 17025 & NATA accreditation: Organisations choose NATA-accredited labs so results are recognised and defensible in audits. NATA explains how ISO/IEC 17025 underpins reliable calibration and reporting across industries. Metrological traceability in Australia: NATA’s policy explains how labs must establish and maintain traceability ( usually back to NMI ) and document the chain. WHS angle ( NSW example ): The WHS Regulation ( NSW ) requires pressure equipment to be regularly inspected by a competent person; approved Codes of Practice are a recognised pathway to achieving compliance. AS 1349 ( Bourdon tube pressure & vacuum gauges ): Sets requirements and accuracy classes often called up in utility and water specs ( e.g., Sydney Water ). AS/NZS 3788 ( In-service inspection) : If your gauges sit on pressure vessels/receivers, align your inspection regime with AS/NZS 3788 guidance and your regulator’s expectations (see SafeWork SA). When Should Gauges Be Calibrated? Use a risk-based interval : set periods that reflect criticality, process conditions ( vibration, clean steam/CIP/SIP, temperature cycles ), required accuracy, historical gauge drift, and audit expectations. NATA doesn’t set one fixed interval for all gear; instead, it provides guidance to help facilities justify intervals ( ISO/IEC 17025 expects you to control and verify the equipment you rely on ). Illustrative Examples ( Not Prescriptive ): Critical pharma CIP/SIP line ( Class 0.6 gauge, hot cycles ): 6 to 12 months. Benign utility air header ( Class 1.6 gauge, stable temp ): 12 to 24 months. Portable test gauge used as a reference: Match interval to required uncertainty and usage rate; shorten if drift trends up. WHS law expects a plant to be maintained and tested per manufacturer instructions by a competent person, calibrated gauges are part of that control. Equipment & Reference Standards Reference options: Deadweight tester / piston gauge: Lowest uncertainty; needs local gravity and environmental corrections. Pressure comparator + digital reference gauge: Fast and portable; ideal for onsite rounds. Liquid column/manometer or high-stability reference gauges: Used where appropriate (e.g., low pressures), provided they’re traceable. Guidance documents discuss using manometers and pressure balances as references. Accuracy ratio: Aim for ≥4:1 ( reference uncertainty ≤¼ of the DUT tolerance ). The MSA Test Method 2 makes this explicit for mechanical gauges. Traceability note: Certificates from your reference instruments should show traceability to NMI ( or an equivalent national metrology institute ) and current calibration dates. NMI’s pressure labs cover vacuum to 500 MPa with 0.0010% capability, useful context when selecting references. Setup essentials: Clean fittings, appropriate media ( gas vs oil/water ), leak-free connections, match orientation to service, and allow stabilisation at each point. Calibration Methods (How-To) Method 1: Deadweight Tester (bench, lowest uncertainty) Use when: You need the tightest uncertainty ( e.g., master test gauges, critical ranges ). Principle: Pressure = mass × gravity / effective area of the piston-cylinder; you float the piston and compare. Correct for local gravity, temperature, and other influence factors. Steps ( bench ): Visual & safety checks : Condition, rating, cleanliness; verify media compatibility. Warm-up/stabilise : Control temperature; level the DWT. Mount vertically as in service : Keep the gauge’s dial vertical; ensure proper head height. Select points : At least 0, 25, 50, 75, 100% FS, up and down; add more for Class ≤0.3 gauges. Apply masses & float the piston : Use the screw press to reach the float; hold steady; log the DWT value. Record: “as-found” errors, repeatability and hysteresis; adjust if allowed; repeat “as-left”. Corrections & uncertainty : Apply local gravity and any environmental/head corrections; include them in the uncertainty budget. Tip: Suppliers request your local gravity so weights can be adjusted; if not specified, instruments may be set for standard gravity. Method 2: Pressure Comparator + Digital Reference Use when: You need speed and portability ( onsite rounds, multiple ranges ). Principle: DUT and reference are in parallel on a comparator; apply pressure with a hand pump/controller; read the reference as the true value. Steps: Connect DUT and reference gauge to the comparator; match DUT orientation to service. For hydraulic comparators, prime to remove bubbles; for gas, use fine adjust. Step through 0, 25, 50, 75, 100% FS ( up and down ); stabilize at each point. Log corrections ( DUT minus reference ), temperatures and any head height differences. If permitted, adjust, then rerun for as-left data. Acceptance Criteria, Accuracy Classes & Decision Rules Tie acceptance to the accuracy class on the dial ( AS 1349 conventions ; typical classes include 0.1, 0.25, 0.6, 1.0, 1.6, 2.5, 4 ). For labs, apply a decision rule consistent with ISO/IEC 17025/ILAC practice, MSA Test Method 2 describes a pragmatic rule for mechanical gauges: a gauge complies if both the correction and the uncertainty are each within the tolerance at all points ( unless your contract specifies another rule ). Where gauges are used for compliance testing, make sure your decision rule is documented and agreed with users/auditors. Errors, Drift & Uncertainty Common contributors: Zero shift & span error ( pointer slippage, movement wear ). Hysteresis & elastic fatigue ( Bourdon tube, diaphragm ). Temperature & media effects ( oil-filled vs dry; gas vs liquid ). Head height and local gravity ( especially for deadweight methods ). Resolution/readability, repeatability, and leaks. Fluke and DKD guidance list environmental and correction factors ( like local gravity ) as significant influence quantities in the uncertainty budget. Trend your as-found data to refine intervals. Training resources: NMI runs pressure measurement and uncertainty courses that help teams manage error sources and reporting. Documentation: What Your Certificate Must Include Use this checklist to reduce queries during audits: Unique ID, make/model/serial, range/units, accuracy class ( if marked ). Method used ( deadweight tester or comparator ), test points ( up/down ). As-found/as-left results and corrections; any adjustments made. Environmental conditions ( temperature, media ), head height/gravity notes ( if relevant ). Measurement uncertainty ( coverage factor ), and the decision rule applied. Reference standards used ( IDs, calibration dates ). Traceability statement to national standards ( NMI ). NATA accreditation no. and scope ( if applicable ). Safety & Compliance Notes Isolate/depressurise before removing any gauge. Confirm relief and isolation valves function before re-pressurising. Air receivers and pressure vessels need in-service inspection by a competent person; align with AS/NZS 3788 and your state regulator’s guidance. For compressed air systems, see Safe Work Australia’s information sheet; air receivers can explode if neglected. Why this matters: Safe Work Australia’s latest report shows 188 worker fatalities in 2024 ( 1.3 per 100,000 ). Keeping gauges accurate is one small, visible part of a larger plant safety system. Industry-Specific Considerations Pharma/biotech: GMP requires audit trails and clear decision rules; validate ranges for CIP/SIP lines and maintain NATA-traceable evidence.

Learn safe high voltage testing methods, Aussie standards, and step-by-step controls to prevent shocks and downtime. < Back Guide to Safe High Voltage Testing Methods High voltage testing checks whether cables, switchgear, transformers, motors and lab equipment can safely withstand service voltages and surges. The biggest risk is electric shock. Do three things every time: plan the test, isolate and prove de-energised, and use the right method, PPE and earthing/discharge controls. Learn More Safe HV Testing in Australia Applying controlled stress ( AC/DC/VLF/surge ) to prove dielectric with stand, detect insulation resistance ( IR ) issues, and find defects ( e.g., partial discharge or tan delta loss ). Used in utilities, manufacturing, mining, pharma, and research labs during commissioning, maintenance, and after repairs. Top Three Controls Plan: written test plan, risk assessment, drawings. Isolate & Prove De-energised: lockout/tagout, test for dead, set approach distances. Use the right method & PPE: method per standard/OEM, barricades, observers, earthing, discharge rods. What is High Voltage Testing? High voltage ( HV ) testing uses elevated test voltages to check whether insulation systems can withstand normal and abnormal stresses ( steady-state, switching surge ) without breakdown. It covers cables, switchgear, motors, transformers, lab HV supplies and more. The IEC/AS-NZS 60060 family is the technical backbone for HV test techniques. Methods at a Glance Method What it checks Typical voltage & dwell Best for Notes Dielectric Withstand (Hipot) Pass/fail withstand of insulation to elevated AC/DC kV level; dwell typically minutes per standard/OEM Commissioning, after repair Always discharge and earth the DUT before disconnecting. Insulation Resistance (IR) DC resistance (MΩ/GΩ); trends over time e.g., 500 V–5 kV; 1-min value, PI/DAR ratios Baseline health checks Good for routine checks without high stress; PI = 10-min/1-min. VLF AC AC withstand at very-low frequency e.g., 0.1–0.01 Hz; minutes MV polymeric cables Lower stress than 50/60 Hz; combine with diagnostics. Tan δ (dissipation factor) Dielectric loss/aging Paired with VLF; trending MV cables Rising tan δ = aging/moisture; use limits/criteria. Partial Discharge (PD) Defect activity (pC); inception/extinction Online/offline Cables, terminations, motors Calibrate PD circuit to IEC 60270 before testing. Surge/Impulse Turn-to-turn integrity Fast impulses; waveform compare Motors/windings Detects faults that IR/hipot may miss. When to use each: Commissioning ( withstand plus diagnostics ), maintenance (I R trend, VLF+tan δ/PD ), post-repair ( targeted hipot/surge ). Australian Standards & Legal Duties ( Know the Rules ) AS/NZS 60060 ( IEC 60060 series ): sets definitions, measuring systems and on-site test requirements for HV test techniques. Recent IEC updates ( e.g., IEC 60060 -1:2025 ) clarify scope for AC, DC and impulse testing above 1 kV. Use these standards to select test voltages, durations, and measuring systems. WHS duties & Codes of Practice: The Model Code of Practice, Managing electrical risks is an approved code under the WHS Act. Following an approved code will assist with compliance; an equivalent or higher method is acceptable. States publish their own approved versions ( e.g., NSW 2019, QLD 2021/varied 2025 ). Victoria ( Blue Book ): If operating in Victoria, use The Blue Book 2022 for work on/near HV apparatus, approach distances, permits, roles, sanctioning and more. It’s referenced under Victorian regulations and sets minimum safety requirements. 3-step “Prove Competence” Engage a competent person ( typically a licensed/registered electrician or inspector with HV competency ). Use a documented procedure aligned to the Code/standard. Keep records plans, permits, isolation tests, results, and calibration traceability. Quick Reference Links SafeWork NSW: Managing electrical risks ( Code of Practice ). WorkSafe Victoria: Electrical safety guidance. WorkSafe QLD: Managing electrical risks ( Code of Practice ). Energy Safe Victoria: Blue Book 2022. Core Methods & How to Run Them Safely Dielectric Withstand ( Hipot ) Purpose: Prove withstand capability under elevated AC or DC voltage; go/no-go. Typical setup: kV output, defined ramp/dwell; leakage monitored. Always discharge with a rated rod and earth before removing leads. Safe sequence 7 steps Confirm isolation, LOTO, permits and approach distances ( Vic sites: Blue Book ). Bond the test set earth first; attach the return/guard as per OEM. Post barricades/signage; nominate a dedicated observer. Ramp to the specified test voltage; hold for the dwell ( often minutes per OEM/standard ). Record voltage, time, leakage current, ambient conditions. ( Use the test plan template below. ) Lower to zero and allow the internal discharge cycle to complete. Apply the discharge rod to the DUT until confirmed de-energised; earth/short the DUT. AC vs DC: DC can over-stress aged polymeric cables; VLF AC with diagnostics is preferred for service-aged MV cables. Insulation Resistance ( IR ) What you get: A 1-minute IR value ( MΩ/GΩ ) and optional PI ( 10-min/1-min ) or DAR ratios. Great for baseline and trending. When IR beats Hipot: Routine checks where you don’t want to apply high stress; first look after maintenance; quick pre-commissioning screen before withstand tests. VLF AC for Cables When to use: Commissioning/maintenance of modern polymeric MV cables; safer on capacitive loads than 50/60 Hz. Post-test, discharge and earth the circuit and maintain signage until proven safe. Tan Delta ( Dielectric Loss ) What it shows: Changes in dielectric loss indicate ageing or moisture trees. Pair with VLF to plan repair/replacement windows. hvinc.com Partial Discharge ( PD ) Why run it: Finds defects ( voids, sharp edges, bad joints ) before failure. Combine with VLF and tan δ for a fuller picture. Calibrate the PD measuring system to IEC 60270 before testing and document PD inception/extinction voltages. Surge/Impulse (For Motors & Windings) Use case: Detect turn-to-turn and phase-to-phase weaknesses early, faults that IR/hipot may miss. Compare waveforms between phases; a left-shift or amplitude change flags a winding issue. Safety Controls & Site Setup ( Zero-harm Checklist ) Plan the test: Write a test plan with drawings, switching schedule, permits, required competencies and emergency steps. Isolate, LOTO, test for dead: De-energise; lockout/tagout; prove dead; define approach distances (Blue Book for Vic). Barricade & signage: Set exclusion zones; assign a dedicated observer with radio. PPE & insulated tools: Arc-rated clothing, dielectric gloves/boots, hot sticks per site risk assessment. Earthing/grounding: Earth the DUT and adjacent equipment; keep ground sticks and discharge rods rated for the job. Post-test discharge: Lower voltage to zero, wait internal discharge, then apply discharge rod; for DC tests, hold grounds for at least 4× test duration on long cables. Incident reporting: Notifiable electric shock events must be reported promptly (e.g., SA guidance notes enforcement). SafeWork SA highlighted 331 notifiable shocks in one period and under-reporting penalties apply. Who should perform HV testing? A competent person should perform and interpret electrical tests, usually a licensed/registered electrician or a licensed electrical inspector with HV competency. Calibration Matters: Keep HV instruments calibrated by ISO/IEC 17025 labs and maintain uncertainty statements with your results. Many enterprises set 6-monthly cycles for critical HV gear. Evidence & Why it Matters ( Stats ) Electrical fatalities: 11 in AU/NZ for 2023–24 ( 10 in Australia ), 0.34 deaths per million. Most network-related deaths involved overhead conductors. All-cause WHS fatalities: 188 worker deaths in 2024; 1.3 per 100,000 workers. Shock notifications & enforcement ( SA ): Hundreds of shock injuries were reported, with regulators warning on under-reporting and issuing more enforcement notices. Choosing Test Equipment ( Buyer’s Quick Tips ) Match method to asset: IR for trend baselines; VLF for MV cables; tan δ/PD for diagnostics; surge for motors; hipot for withstand. Confirm standard alignment: Check equipment and procedures align to AS/NZS 60060/IEC guidance for test voltages, dwell times and measurement. Safety by design: Look for integrated discharge features and proper earthing points; ensure suitability for capacitive loads ( VLF ). Insist on calibration certificates: Use ISO/IEC 17025 labs and retain uncertainty with results for audits and decisions.

Verify wine tartaric & calcium stability fast with Steroglass EasyCheck—compact, precise, and traceable for winery labs. Tartaric Stability With Steroglass EasyCheck Why Tartaric Stability Matters in Modern Winemaking Tartrate crystals are the most common physical instability seen in bottled wines and are often read by consumers as a quality slip. Preventing precipitation of potassium bitartrate and calcium tartrate protects appearance and complaint risk at shelf. AWRI defines “ cold stability ” as resistance to KHT crystallisation at low temperature, noting that calcium tartrate is less temperature-sensitive and harder to control—so CaT calls for different checks than classic cold treatment alone. Meet Steroglass EasyCheck EasyCheck is an ultra-compact, bench analyser that needs only mains power and its built-in Peltier cooling to run tests. It automates a standardised, repeatable protocol and stores results for traceability or remote review via app/LIMS. Use it for routine QC, pre-bottling checks, trial verification and commercial lab throughput. How EasyCheck Works Conductivity-based Stability Testing When KHT crystals form, potassium ions leave solution and the sample’s conductivity drops. That’s why the accepted “mini-contact/UC Davis” style tests track the change in µS/cm during a cold, seeded run—less drop means greater stability. . Steroglass Test Flow EasyCheck favours KHT precipitation by adding excess potassium bitartrate (labelled “THK” in the brochure) and monitors conductivity through controlled temperature phases. Because it uses Peltier cells rather than a water/air bath, it ramps faster and holds tighter isotherms, shortening test time while improving repeatability. What You See in The Results EasyCheck gives you a graph (isotherm) and four named indicators that make the pass/fail call easier to defend in audits: TS (saturation temperature) TSS (stabilised TS) TCC (critical temperature of crystallisation ) SSS (stable supersaturation zone) The instrument also stores runs and supports remote/app or LIMS review for traceability. How to read the curve: during a seeded, temperature-controlled run the instrument tracks conductivity. A flat or <3–5% drop over the method window suggests the wine is already cold-stable; larger sustained drops signal ongoing KHT precipitation and a likely fail. Australian references commonly treat ≤5% change as a practical pass guide (some labs use ≤3% for reds). Set your in-house rule and keep it consistent across vintages. What each number means for decisions TS / TSS : show how close the wine sits to tartrate saturation at the test conditions; lower TSS generally means a wider buffer against KHT fallout in the supply chain. Use this to justify shorter or skipped cold holds on already stable lots. TCC : the temperature at which crystals kick off. If your bottling, transport or retail exposure gets near that temperature, treat or adjust logistics. SSS : a “safe zone” where the wine remains supersaturated without dropping crystals—useful when planning shipping through colder regions. Borderline or unexpected results: AWRI notes there’s no single universal definition of “cold stability”, and some producers verify marginal wines with a 72-hour brine test at −4 °C. If your conductivity drop hovers around the limit, run a confirmatory check before large-scale treatment. Calcium angle: EasyCheck also includes a calcium stability mode. Because CaT behaves differently to KHT and is less temperature-sensitive, treat its output as a separate risk screen rather than assuming a KHT pass covers CaT. What to save to LIMS: export the isotherm image, TS/TSS/TCC/SSS values, method settings (seed amount, temperature steps), operator ID and batch/lot—this builds a repeatable pre-bottling release record and speeds up audits or complaint reviews. Key Specs Conductivity: ±2 µS/cm sensitivity; 0–4000 µS/cm range Temperature: 0.01 °C resolution; ±0.1 °C accuracy; −30 to +50 °C Analysis chamber: 25 mL, magnetic stirring Footprint / weight: 21 × 20 × 43 cm; ~8 kg Thermal system : 4-cell Peltier; tighter isotherm vs bath systems (±0.05 °C vs ±0.5 °C) Data/remote: result saving and remote/app connectivity; LIMS/PC compatibility Built-in computer: ARM quad-core 1.4 GHz Advantages for Australian Wineries Run only the cold treatment you need, based on measured stability, and avoid energy-heavy, multi-week brine soaks for wines that are already stable. Recent reviews outline how data-led approaches can trim energy/additives while maintaining quality. How to Read/Act on an EasyCheck Run Before You Start Filter to bottling spec, degas if needed, and equilibrate temperature to the method. Follow AWRI’s guidance on comparative stability tests to avoid false positives from haze or colloids. During The Run Watch for conductivity stabilising at the controlled setpoint. Capture TS/TSS/TCC/SSS, confirm the isotherm looks clean (no instrument drift), and save the run to your batch record. After The Run If the conductivity drop is ≥5%, treat. Options include CMC, potassium polyaspartate (KPA), ion exchange, electrodialysis , or targeted cold time; CaT risk may call for specific additives. Base your choice on wine style, label claims and cost-to-treat. Pricing, Setup & What’s in the Box Pricing is POA(Price on Application) via distributors. Typical inclusions: Instrument Analysis chamber with stirrer Software Starter accessories Common consumables include KHT seeds and calibration/verification solutions for conductivity. Why Buy Through CISCAL Get local supply, validation, and service with a single partner—plus compliance-ready documentation and NATA-traceable support through CISCAL Accreditation No. 411. National coverage with NSW head office and sites in VIC and QLD; service reach across all states and nearby regions. Getting the Most Value From Your CISCAL Services Use EasyCheck to move from guesswork to measured stability. Start by writing your own “go/no-go” rule (e.g., ≤5% conductivity drop under your mini-contact settings). Log TS/TCC and isotherms to your LIMS, and review them at pre-bottling sign-off. For CaT, schedule periodic checks on wines with higher calcium or higher pH, and trial CMC or KPA before full-scale treatment. FAQs Previous Next < Back

Improve kiln temperature control using Keller PK-11 Series pyrometers and CISCAL’s support for setup and NATA-accredited calibration. Optimising Kiln Temperature with Keller PK-11 Series Kiln temperature is simply the temperature inside the kiln along its length and over time. When that kiln temperature drifts or swings around, product quality, fuel bills and even refractory life all take a hit. Across cement, lime, brick, tile and ceramics plants in NSW, VIC, QLD, WA and other states, stable kiln temperature control is now a major lever for cost and quality. This guide explains how infrared pyrometers measure kiln temperature, why the Keller PK-11 Series fits industrial kilns, and how CISCAL supports supply, setup and NATA-accredited calibration. Common Kiln Temperature Problems Many sites across Australia see the same kiln temperature issues: Uneven temperature zones – One side of the tunnel kiln is hotter, or the burning zone in a rotary kiln is narrow and unstable. Hot spots and cold spots – Refractory hot spots on a rotary shell, or cold channels through a load of bricks or tiles. Relying only on thermocouples – A few fixed thermocouples can miss what is happening on the product surface or in the load, especially in long tunnel kilns. Impact on scrap, rework and downtime – When kiln temperature is not monitored properly, scrap rates rise, more product needs refiring and unplanned shutdowns become more common. Infrared pyrometers give a direct view of the actual surface temperature of product or refractory, filling in the gaps between thermocouples. How Infrared Pyrometers Measure Kiln Temperature Non-contact temperature basics An infrared pyrometer is an infrared thermometer that measures temperature from the thermal radiation a surface emits, without touching it. In simple terms: Every hot surface gives off infrared radiation. The pyrometer’s lens focuses that radiation on a detector. Electronics convert the signal into a kiln temperature reading. Because no probe or thermocouple is in the hot zone, non-contact kiln temperature measurement: Works where access is limited or the load is moving Avoids wear on probes in abrasive or high-velocity gas streams Responds very quickly to changes in kiln temperature Typical Kiln Applications Infrared pyrometers are used on many kiln types: Tunnel kiln temperature – Measure load or refractory temperatures at pre-heat, firing and cooling zones. Rotary kiln temperature – Monitor clinker, lime or refractory temperatures through kiln viewing ports. Shuttle / batch kilns – Check soak temperature at set points in the chamber. Common mounting points include: Firing zone ports on rotary cement kilns and lime kilns Side or roof ports in tunnel kilns above the main firing and soak zones Observation ports in cooling zones to control cooling rate Introducing the Keller PK-11 Series for Kilns The Keller CellaTemp PK 11 BF 2 is a compact infrared pyrometer well suited to kiln temperature monitoring in harsh industrial environments. It combines non-contact measurement with simple setup and integration into PLC or SCADA systems. Core Features of CellaTemp PK 11 BF 2 Key features relevant to tunnel kiln temperature, rotary kiln temperature and batch kilns include: Measuring range: 0–1000 °C (ideal for ceramics, cement kiln temperature and lime kiln temperature on product or refractory) Spectral range: 8–14 μm, optimised for non-metal surfaces Fast response: t90 ≤ 60 ms, so control loops see changes quickly Stainless steel body with IP65 protection , suitable for dusty kiln areas Analogue 0/4–20 mA output + IO-Link , for easy connection to PLCs and SCADA Clear LED display and keypad on the sensor , so parameters can be adjusted onsite These features allow maintenance and process teams in NSW, VIC, QLD, WA and other regions to mount PK 11 units close to the kiln, wire them into existing IO and read kiln temperature locally at the same time. Smart Functions for Process Stability Beyond basic temperature output, the CellaTemp PK 11 includes smart functions that support stable kiln temperature control: Two PNP switching outputs – Can be set as alarms or limits, for example over-temperature on a tunnel kiln roof or low temperature in a pre-heat zone. Emissivity and transmission factor adjustment – Lets you tune readings for different products (e.g. dark bricks vs lighter tiles) and any protective window between the pyrometer and kiln. “Vitality” indicators and diagnostics – The vitality function monitors internal status and can flag when the device may need maintenance or checking, helping with preventive maintenance. Choosing Between Keller PK 11-K001, K002, K003 and K004 The PK-11 measuring systems combine the PK 11 BF 2 sensor with different optics and mounting hardware. All have a 0–1000 °C measuring range and 8–14 μm spectral range . Quick Comparison Table Model Measuring range Target size Focus distance Mounting set Key feature PK 11-K001 0–1000 °C 11 mm 0.3 m PK 01-027 + cable VK 02/L AF 1 Small spot for close-range kiln ports PK 11-K002 0–1000 °C 33 mm 0.9 m PK 01-007 + cable VK 02/L AF 1 Standard spot for longer viewing ports PK 11-K003 0–1000 °C 33 mm 0.9 m PK 01-024 + cable VK 02/L AF 1 Bayonet lock for quick removal PK 11-K004 0–1000 °C 33 mm 0.9 m PK 11-006 + cable VK 02/L AF 1 Bayonet lock + kiln-suited mounting combination Each mounting set includes an air-purged fitting with flow-optimised air to keep the lens clear with minimal air consumption. Matching PK-11 Variants to Kiln Layouts Close-range ports or pilot kilns → PK 11-K001 Good where the pyrometer can be mounted close to the product, such as small shuttle kilns, pilot kilns or inspection doors with limited space. Standard tunnel or rotary kiln viewing ports → PK 11-K002 Suits many cement kiln and lime kiln applications where there is a longer standoff distance and a standard port size. Dusty, high-maintenance points → PK 11-K003 or PK 11-K004 The bayonet lock makes it easy to remove the measure head for cleaning protective windows or lenses without disturbing brackets. PK 11-K004 adds a kiln-optimised mounting combination for heavy-duty use. Practical Tips for Reliable Kiln Temperature Readings Spot Size, Distance and Aiming For accurate kiln temperature monitoring: Make sure the measuring spot is fully filled by product or refractory; do not let the spot “see” frame edges or steelwork. Select PK 11 optics so that spot size suits the kiln window or product size (e.g. 11 mm at 0.3 m vs 33 mm at 0.9 m). Align the pyrometer so it looks at a stable part of the load, not just at holes or conveyors. Dealing With Dust, Scale and Flames In cement and lime kilns, dust and scale are a daily reality: Use air-purged mounts supplied with PK 11 measuring systems to keep dust off the lens. Where possible, avoid looking directly at flames; aim at the product bed or refractory opposite the burner. Use bayonet-lock mounts (K003, K004) to remove the sensor quickly, clean protective windows and refit without re-aiming. Integrating Keller PK-11 With Your Control System The Keller PK 11 Series is designed for easy integration: 0/4–20 mA analogue output can feed directly into PID loops in your PLC or standalone controllers for kiln temperature control. IO-Link supports parameter changes, diagnostics and remote monitoring from control rooms or SCADA. Switching outputs can be used for over-temperature alarms, burner interlocks or cooling air control. Steps to set up a Keller PK-11 on a kiln inspection port Confirm the required measuring point (e.g. firing zone roof port on a tunnel kiln). Choose the PK 11-Kxxx system that matches distance and port size. Install the mounting set on the port, including air purge and any protective window. Screw in the PK 11 BF 2 sensor and roughly aim at the target area. Wire the 0/4–20 mA output to the chosen PLC or controller channel and connect IO-Link if used. Set emissivity and measuring range via the keypad or IO-Link. Check readings against existing thermocouples or reference data and fine-tune aiming as needed. Explore CISCAL’s Temperature Services Calibration and Compliance for Kiln Temperature in Australia Why calibration of kiln pyrometers matters? Infrared pyrometers used for kiln temperature control sit inside quality systems and energy audits.

Discover how the Panran ZRJ thermal instrument verification system supports compliant temperature calibration for Australian labs and industry. Panran ZRJ Series Thermal Instrument Verification System in Australia How confident are you that every temperature reading in your plant or lab is actually right? For food, pharmaceutical, aerospace and research organisations in Australia, a few degrees of error can mean unsafe product, failed validation runs, AMS 2750 exceptions or extra scrutiny during NATA surveillance. Temperature probes, thermocouples and RTDs drift over time, and manual spot checks with single-channel calibrators often cannot keep up with busy, temperature-controlled processes. A thermal instrument verification system brings this work into a controlled, automated setup: temperature sources, reference standards, a multi-channel scanner and software that handles procedures, calculations and reports. What is a Thermal Instrument Verification System? A thermal instrument verification system is a complete, automated calibration bench that usually includes: One or more thermocouple calibration furnaces, heat pipe baths or dry-wells High-accuracy reference thermocouples and RTDs A multi-channel temperature scanner with low-noise switching and reference junction compensation Software that manages test points, applies corrections, performs calibration uncertainty analysis and generates certificates In simple terms: Verification means checking an instrument against a known standard to see if it meets a tolerance. Calibration adds the link to traceability, documents the relationship, and often applies corrections and issues a formal report. Typical instruments covered include: Standard and working thermocouples (noble and base metal) Industrial RTDs and precision resistance thermometers Temperature transmitters (4–20 mA, 0–10 mA, 1–5 V) Handheld and fixed thermometers Temperature data loggers and monitoring probes High-volume sites such as food plants, pharmaceutical manufacturers, aerospace suppliers and temperature calibration laboratories move from manual, single-channel calibrators to automated systems because: One-at-a-time field calibrators are slow and labour intensive Results can vary from one operator to another Managing temperature traceability and reports by hand is painful Larger batches and tighter tolerances demand a structured automated calibration system rather than ad hoc checks Why Temperature Verification Matters for Australian Industries Food Safety and HACCP For Australian food businesses, safe temperatures are clear: potentially hazardous food should be kept at 5 °C or colder, or 60 °C or hotter to limit bacterial growth. The range between 5 °C and 60 °C is known as the temperature danger zone , where food-poisoning bacteria can multiply quickly. If cooking, chilling or hot-holding probes are out of calibration, food may sit in this danger zone longer than expected. That can lead to food safety incidents and non-conformance with the Food Standards Code 3.2.2 / 3.2.2A and HACCP plans. Healthcare, Vaccines and the Cold Chain For vaccines and many temperature-sensitive medicines, Australian guidance such as Strive for 5 states that vaccines should be stored within +2 °C to +8 °C, aiming for about +5 °C as the midpoint. Monitoring systems rely on calibrated probes, loggers and fridge thermometers. If those instruments drift, staff can believe storage is compliant when temperatures have actually moved out of range. Compliance, Accreditation and Uncertainty Organisations seeking or maintaining NATA accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025 must show that temperature work: Uses fit-for-purpose reference standards Follows documented procedures Includes sound uncertainty evaluation and traceable records NATA’s Temperature Metrology annex highlights issues such as sensor placement, stability assessment and uncertainty budgeting for temperature calibration. Business and Operational Risk Poorly controlled temperature instruments can result in: Product recalls and rework Wasted batches of high-value goods Downtime for investigations and requalification Regulatory non-compliance Damage to brand and customer trust As volumes and compliance pressure grow, a thermal instrument verification system such as the Panran ZRJ Series helps organisations move from sporadic field checks to a structured, high-throughput programme that supports temperature-controlled process compliance. Overview of the Panran ZRJ Series Thermal Instrument Verification System The Panran ZRJ Series is a new-generation, intelligent temperature calibration system designed to replace or upgrade traditional, manually intensive setups. At a high level, it combines: An integrated core control unit with a precision thermometer, low-thermal multi-channel scanner, terminal block and constant temperature chamber Flexible multi-channel scanning, supporting multiple furnaces and many thermocouples and RTDs in parallel Compatibility with common temperature sources: thermocouple verification furnaces, heat pipe baths, zero-point dry-wells and other metrology blocks Software that manages calibration procedures, automates data capture, runs calibration uncertainty analysis and produces complete reports For Australian labs and plants, key outcomes include: Higher throughput and efficient batch thermocouple calibration Reduced labour and less operator variation Lower and better-understood measurement uncertainty Strong temperature traceability and reports for audits and customers Product Functions of the Panran ZRJ Series The ZRJ Series supports automatic verification and calibration of a wide range of industrial temperature sensors for metrology institutes, calibration laboratories and industrial users.

Transmitter loops: Electrical outputs tied back to temperature. Expansion thermometers and loggers: For legacy instruments and monitoring equipment. The system also supports: Mixed and grouped verification, with up to 10 groups and around 100 pieces per batch, depending on configuration Integrated database management for record search and recovery Open interfaces to push verification data into LIMS, ERP or plant historians Auxiliary tests such as repeatability, comparison and temperature-field studies of furnaces and baths CISCAL adapts these functions to the instrument mix and workload at each Australian site. Key Hardware Features of the ZRJ Series Feature What it is Why it matters for your site Integrated core control unit Scanner, precision thermometer, terminal block and constant temperature chamber in one enclosure Fewer cables and junctions, easier setup and more stable reference conditions Low-thermal composite scan switch Tellurium-copper mechanical switch with low-potential relays Very low parasitic EMF and contact resistance, which lowers measurement uncertainty Multi-channel design Many thermocouple and RTD channels per system, with optional extra scanners Enables and RTD work with high throughput Standard temperature control of furnaces Dual-channel temperature control plus voltage compensation for reference sensors Shorter settling times and more stable temperature fields in calibration furnaces and baths Flexible temperature sources Works with thermocouple furnaces, heat pipe baths, zero-point dry-wells and similar equipment Lets you reuse existing temperature sources or extend ranges as needed Built-in reference junction compensation Managed reference junctions inside a controlled chamber Improves accuracy of thermocouple measurements across many channels Industrial communication interfaces Serial and field-bus style ports for furnaces, meters and host systems Easier integration with existing temperature sources and site networks Safety and fault monitoring Over-temperature protection, comms checks and wiring diagnostics Reduces risk of furnace damage, wiring errors and lost calibration runs Integrated Core Control Unit and Scanner The ZRJ core unit combines a precision thermometer, multi-channel temperature scanner, terminal block and constant temperature chamber in one enclosure. This: Cuts down on external wiring and connection points Reduces thermal EMF and electrical noise pickup Provides a controlled environment for reference junctions and sensitive circuits The result is a smaller footprint on the bench and more stable reference conditions over time. Composite Scan Switch and Multi-channel Design A composite scan switch, based on tellurium-copper mechanical contacts and low-potential relays, gives: Very low parasitic thermal EMF between channels Low contact resistance with good long-term stability Strong channel-to-channel consistency, even with many thermocouples connected Combined with robust reference junction compensation, this supports low-uncertainty measurements at scale. Standard Temperature Control and Furnaces The ZRJ Series can control thermocouple furnaces, heat pipe baths and dry-wells using enhanced standard temperature control: Dual-channel control for stability and fast response Voltage compensation for reference sensors Algorithms tuned for quick settling at setpoints This gives stable conditions for both thermocouple and RTD calibration. M etrology Parameters and Referenced Standards The ZRJ Series is built so that its metrology parameters are equal to, or better than, typical requirements for verifying standard thermocouples and Class A RTDs. Parameter ZRJ Series typical spec Common requirement (guide) What this means in plain language Parasitic potential between channels ≤ 0.2 μV ≤ 0.4 μV Lower thermal EMF when switching between thermocouple channels Channel difference (voltage / resistance) ≤ 0.5 μV / ≤ 1.0 mΩ ≤ 1.0 μV / ≤ 2.0 mΩ Better channel-to-channel consistency for thermocouples and RTDs Measurement repeatability ≤ 1.0 μV / ≤ 3.0 mΩ ≤ 1.5 μV / ≤ 12.0 mΩ More repeatable readings, which improves uncertainty budgets Constant temperature – TC calibration ≤ 0.5 °C change in 6 min; ≤ 0.1 °C/min Similar limits used in many procedures Stable enough for thermocouple calibration in furnaces and blocks Constant temperature – RTD calibration ≤ 0.01 °C in 10 min; ≤ 0.01 °C/min ≤ 0.04 °C; ≤ 0.02 °C/min Very stable baths/wells for high-accuracy RTD work Processed result verification ≤ 0.1 μV / ≤ 0.1 mΩ ≤ 0.5 μV / ≤ 0.4 mΩ Data handling and corrections add very little extra error Standards and regulations referenced JJG / JJF / GB/T series, enterprise Q/0900 TPR001-2020, AMS 2750 National and industry standards Aligns well with ISO/IEC 17025 temperature metrology and NATA expectations In practice, this means: Lower parasitic EMF and better repeatability reduce the contribution of the scanner to your uncertainty budget. Strong constant temperature performance supports higher-accuracy work for both thermocouples and RTDs. Processed result checks help ensure that software and algorithms do not introduce significant extra error. Standards and Regulations The ZRJ Series is implemented against an enterprise standard similar to Q/0900 TPR001-2020 “ZRJ Intelligent Thermal Instrument Verification System”, and supports methods aligned with: Thermocouple standards: JJG 75-2022, JJG 668-1997, JJG 141-2013, JJF 1637-2017 and others RTDs, thermometers and automatic systems: JJF 1098-2003, JJG 130-2011, JJG 229-2010 Tungsten–rhenium thermocouples, thermocouple wires, transmitters: JJF 1176, JJF 1183 and relevant GB/T documents Temperature uniformity and pyrometry: JJF 1184 and AMS 2750 pyrometry requirements For Australian users, this sits well with ISO/IEC 17025 and NATA’s Calibration – Annex, Temperature Metrology guidance. Software Platform, Uncertainty Analysis and Reporting Professional Uncertainty Analysis The ZRJ software platform includes professional tools for calibration uncertainty analysis. It can: Calculate standard uncertainty, effective degrees of freedom and expanded uncertainty Build detailed uncertainty component tables (sensor, reference, furnace stability, resolution, repeatability, environment and more) Attach results directly to calibration records and certificates For ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories, this supports the requirement to understand and document measurement uncertainty in a consistent way. Smart Constant-temperature Assessment and Data Tools The software monitors constant-temperature performance using statistics based on measurement repeatability. This is helpful when: Verifying thick thermocouples with slow response Running large batches in one furnace or bath The platform can review: Deviation from setpoint Repeatability across channels and runs Furnace or bath fluctuation over time Signs of interference, wiring faults or unstable supply This gives a clearer view of when conditions are acceptable for data capture, and when they are not. Certificate Generation, Digital Signatures and Cloud Tools The ZRJ software supports: Automatic generation of calibration and verification records in flexible templates Export of raw data and processed results to Word, Excel and PDF Digital signatures and document control for secure, traceable records With a Smart Metrology app (where deployed), users can also access: Remote start/stop and live monitoring Cloud-based storage of calibration results Built-in ITS-90 and unit conversion tools Optional camera support to capture calibration setups Typical Applications in Australian Industries 1. Pharmaceutical Manufacturing and Laboratories Use cases include: Autoclaves and sterilisers Incubators and stability chambers Vaccine storage and cold rooms Environmental monitoring in cleanrooms These applications need traceable calibrations that support TGA, GMP and ISO/IEC 17025 expectations. The ZRJ Series can act as the central temperature calibration laboratory for these assets. 2. Food and Beverage Production and HACCP In food and beverage plants, temperature instruments monitor: Cooking, pasteurisation and baking Chilling, freezing and blast chilling Hot-holding, bain-maries and display units Refrigerated storage and distribution hubs Australian guidance stresses keeping high-risk food at 5 °C or colder, or 60 °C or hotter , avoiding the 5–60 °C danger zone where bacteria grow quickly. Authorities such as the NSW Food Authority note that food thermometers should be calibrated at least every six months, depending on use. ZRJ batch capabilities make it far easier to meet this schedule for large fleets of probes and thermometers. 3. Manufacturing, Engineering and Heavy Industry In heavy industry, engineering and aerospace, thermocouples and RTDs underpin: Heat treatment furnaces Metallurgical processes High-temperature reactors and kilns Many of these operate under AMS 2750 pyrometry requirements, which demand clear evidence of sensor performance, furnace uniformity and calibration intervals. ZRJ systems help collect and manage this evidence. 4. Calibration and Testing Laboratories Independent calibration and testing laboratories benefit from: High-throughput verification of standard and working thermocouples, RTDs and transmitters Low measurement uncertainty that aligns with other NATA accredited temperature calibration providers in Australia Flexible certificate templates and robust record keeping ready for audits Batch and grouped verification features support both routine production work and demanding research clients. How the Panran ZRJ Series Fits into a NATA-Ready Calibration Strategy A typical CISCAL deployment in Australia might include: One or more ZRJ core units with extended scanners Thermocouple furnaces, baths and dry-wells covering the relevant ranges Reference thermometers and probes maintained under NATA accredited temperature calibration Workstations running ZRJ software, linked to LIMS, ERP or QA systems This setup is designed to line up with ISO/IEC 17025 temperature metrology guidance and NATA criteria, supporting: Consistent, documented methods for thermocouple and RTD verification Automated uncertainty analysis with clear statements on certificates Standardised report templates and records that help audits run more smoothly ZRJ Series Models and Channel Configurations Model Furnaces / baths Typical TC channels Typical RTD channels Main use case in Australia ZRJ-03 1 ~6–10 ~6–10 Labs and enterprises building standard thermocouples and RTD references ZRJ-03A/B 1 ~6–10 ~6–10 Variants of ZRJ-03 for different accuracy or channel configs ZRJ-03C 1 24 – High counts of micro thermocouples in defence, aerospace and R&D ZRJ-04 2 20 10 Mixed thermocouple and RTD verification in busy plants and labs ZRJ-05-N 2–10 (N furnaces) N × 10 N × 5 Very high volume sites, probe makers and large calibration labs ZRJ-06 1–2 (configurable) 10 10 Parallel TC and RTD work in medium-sized labs and industrial QA Model summaries ZRJ-03 / 03A / 03B – Single-furnace systems One furnace with roughly 6–10 thermocouple channels and 6–10 RTD channels.

Automatic titrator Flash2 from Steroglass: compact lab system for precise chemical, food, water and wine analysis. Find details at CISCAL Resources. Steroglass Flash2: One Platform for Multisector Automated Titration Why Automated Titration Matters for Australian Labs Australian laboratories in wine, food and beverage, water and environmental testing, and chemical production are under steady pressure. Export markets expect tight process control, domestic regulators expect traceable data, and many labs are trying to do more work with the same or fewer people. Manual titration still works, but it is slow, operator-dependent and difficult to standardise between shifts, sites and seasons. Reading burettes, judging endpoints by eye and handwriting results into logbooks all add variation and admin load. When labs run hundreds of wine, dairy or water samples per week, that variation can turn into repeat work, release delays and stressful audits. The Steroglass Flash2 automatic titrator is designed as a compact, multisector platform that automates these routine titrations, improves reproducibility and creates digital records that stand up in NATA, ISO/IEC 17025 and food safety audits. What is Steroglass Flash2 Automatic Titrator? The Steroglass Flash2 is a fifth-generation automatic titration system that replaces manual glass burettes and colour-change endpoints with an automated, sensor-based process. It is built to perform routine titrations across oenological, food, environmental and chemical matrices on a single platform. Flash2 is a compact benchtop titrator with a 7-inch high-brightness touchscreen. The interface guides users step-by-step through method selection, sample information, titration, result review and data export. This is a shift from “remember the method and write it down” to “follow the on-screen recipe”, which suits mixed-experience teams and seasonal lab staff. The system can be configured with one or two precision burettes and up to three peristaltic pumps for auxiliary reagents. An AS Plus autosampler (14, 18 or 30 positions, depending on beaker size) can be added for batch workflows, so the same automatic titrator can handle both single urgent samples and production runs. Flash2 is designed as a true multisector titrator. On one instrument, laboratories can run wine analysis pH, titratable acidity and free/total SO₂; dairy acidity and chlorides; acidity and peroxides in edible oils; vitamin C in juices and sauces; alkalinity and hardness in water; and acid–base and redox titrations for chemical and galvanic baths. Key Features and Specifications of Steroglass Flash2 Compact, Multisector Platform Flash2 measures approximately 25.5 × 20.5 × 44 cm and weighs around 10 kg, so it fits comfortably on a standard lab bench next to a balance or pH meter. In shared laboratories, contract facilities and winery labs that already host a mix of instruments, this footprint helps avoid yet another trolley or crowded corner. The compact housing still supports up to two burettes and multiple peristaltic pumps, giving enough flexibility to run acid–base, redox and complexometric titrations across food, water, wine and chemical samples on a single system. Instead of buying different titrators for wine, dairy and process water, Australian labs can standardise on one automatic titration system with methods configured for each matrix. Automation and Throughput Flash2 automates all main titration steps: dosing titrant via precision burettes, dispensing auxiliary reagents with peristaltic pumps, stirring, monitoring electrode responses and detecting endpoints. The instrument records the titration curve in real time, calculates results and stores them in an internal database. According to Steroglass , automated sampling, degassing and auto-levelling systems mean Flash2 can cut analysis and sample preparation time by up to 90% compared with manual methods. When combined with the autosampler (14, 18 or 30 positions), labs can load a batch, start the run and focus on other work while the titrator processes each sample in sequence. For high-throughput contract labs and busy winery labs during vintage, this batch style reduces manual pipetting and burette reading. Fewer manual steps mean fewer transcription errors, fewer repeats and faster release decisions for production. Data Handling, GLP Compliance and Connectivity Flash2 is designed with GLP-style operation in mind. The instrument can store up to 30 user-editable methods and around 300 sets of results, calibrations and titrant data, along with titration curves. User accounts support an administrator plus up to eight secondary users, providing basic access control for regulated environments. Results can be exported via USB as CSV files, printed or transferred to a PC using Flash2Data software. From there, data can be integrated into LIMS or QA databases to support NATA-accredited operations and GMP or ISO/IEC 17025 requirements. This replaces handwritten logbooks and spreadsheets with traceable electronic records, helping laboratories reduce transcription errors and prepare for audits with less manual collation. How Steroglass Flash2 Supports Key Australian Industries Flash2 is built as a multisector titrator, so the same instrument can sit in a winery lab, a regional dairy plant, a council water lab or a chemical works. Below are examples of how the platform fits into typical Australian workflows. Wine and Oenology In winery labs, Flash2 automates routine wine analysis pH, titratable acidity and free/total SO₂ across harvest, fermentation, maturation and bottling. These parameters drive taste, mouthfeel and preservation, and they are central to decisions on acid additions, sulphur dosing and blending. With wine exports worth around $1.9 billion and about 60% of production shipped overseas, consistent titration data helps maintain brand and country reputation in crowded export markets. Automated titration also supports larger wineries and groups that operate multiple sites, as the same methods can run on identical instruments in different regions. A mid-sized Australian winery, for example, could use Flash2 with an autosampler to run morning and afternoon batches during vintage: musts and ferments in the morning, and barrel or tank samples in the afternoon. The instrument handles dosing and endpoint detection while staff focus on interpreting trends and advising winemakers. Food and Beverage Manufacturing Flash2 supports a wide range of food and beverage quality control tests. In dairy, titrations for acidity and chlorides help check milk freshness, monitor processing and control salt levels in cheese and other products. In juices, sauces and preserves, acidity and vitamin C titrations protect shelf life, taste and label claims. Edible oils can be checked for acidity and peroxide values to monitor oxidation and storage stability. These capabilities line up with the scale of Australian food and beverage manufacturing, where around 87% of firms are SMEs and the sector generated about $31.8 billion GVA in 2022–23, with almost $36 billion in exports. With 14.8 million tonnes of food and non-alcoholic beverages sold in 2022–23, even small efficiency gains in routine QA can free staff to work on process improvement and incident investigation rather than repeating manual titrations. Water and Environmental Testing Water and environmental labs must show that drinking water, process water and wastewater meet guideline values for pH, alkalinity, hardness and related parameters. Flash2 methods can cover titrimetric alkalinity and hardness testing alongside pH and conductivity, supporting compliance with Australian drinking water and environmental guidelines while providing traceable digital records. For regional councils or industrial sites that run modest sample numbers, the compact footprint means Flash2 can share a bench with other water quality instruments rather than needing a dedicated titration bench. Chemical and Galvanic Industries In chemical manufacturing and galvanic or electroplating plants, Flash2 can handle acid–base titrations, TAN/TBN measurements and titrations for hydrogen peroxide, active chlorine, alkali and other bath components. Keeping bath composition within tight ranges helps maintain coating quality, avoid corrosion and reduce rework. Automated titration is especially helpful where baths are aggressive or hot. Flash2’s automation reduces direct contact with reagents, supporting safer operation and more consistent process monitoring. Manual vs Automated Titration – Benefits of Steroglass Flash2 How does Steroglass Flash2 improve accuracy and reproducibility? Manual titration relies on the operator’s judgement to detect endpoints, read burettes and record values. Even experienced analysts can differ slightly in how they see a colour change or handle a busy bench. Those small differences add up across batches, shifts and sites. Flash2 standardises dosing and endpoint detection by using precision burettes, electrodes and automated algorithms rather than subjective colour changes. Distributors describe the system as providing fast, accurate and repeatable titrations across food, wine, pharmaceutical and chemical matrices, which helps multi-site organisations align methods and acceptance criteria. How does Steroglass Flash2 save time and reduce risk? Steroglass reports that Flash2 can reduce analysis and sample preparation time by up to 90% compared with manual titration, thanks to automated sampling, degassing and levelling systems. This reduction in manual workload lowers overtime pressure during peak periods such as vintage or seasonal production and helps keep turnaround targets realistic without constant “all hands on deck” titration sessions. Less manual handling of strong acids, bases and oxidants improves safety, and more efficient reagent use with no single-use plastic burettes or tips reduces waste. With fewer manual steps, the risk of sample swaps, transcription errors or missed logbook entries also drops, supporting cleaner audit trails. Choosing and Deploying Flash2 in Your Lab Assessing Samples, Methods and Configuration Before selecting a configuration, it helps to map out how your laboratory currently uses titration: List all routine titrations (wine, dairy, sauces, oils, water, chemical baths and others). Estimate weekly and seasonal sample volumes for each test. Identify which tests run singly and which run in batches. Note reporting requirements, such as certificates for customers, release reports for production or records for auditors. Labs with a small menu of tests and moderate sample numbers may be well served by a single-burette Flash2 with one or two pumps. Sites with high throughput or more complex methods (for example, where two titrants are needed) often benefit from a dual-burette setup. Next, assess whether an autosampler is justified. As a rough guide, if staff are regularly queuing more than 10–15 samples per run or working extended hours during peak periods, an autosampler with 14, 18 or 30 positions can significantly reduce manual handling time. A simple checklist for internal discussions could include: Sample types and matrices (wine, dairy, sauces, oils, water, chemical baths) Required parameters (pH, TA, SO₂, chlorides, alkalinity, hardness, TAN/TBN and others) Typical and peak sample volumes per week Desired turnaround times Data and reporting needs (LIMS, ERP, certificates, audit reports) Calibration, Maintenance and Compliance in Australia An automatic titrator is only as reliable as its sensors, balances and volumetric systems. Routine calibration of pH electrodes, temperature probes, balances and volumetric hardware is key to maintaining traceable measurements. For many labs, combining Flash2 installation with a broader calibration review (including reference buffers, thermometers and balances) makes sense, so the full measurement chain is documented when the system goes live.

See how electronic equipment calibration services boost safety, quality and compliance in Australia—NATA traceability, lower downtime, smarter audits. < Back Benefits of Electronic Equipment Calibration Services How reliable is your equipment when every measurement counts? In industries like pharmaceuticals, food production, biotech, and advanced manufacturing, even the smallest error can disrupt operations, compromise safety, or risk non-compliance. That’s why electronic equipment calibration is more than routine; it’s a legal, financial, and operational necessity. Calibration aligns an instrument’s readings with recognized standards, ensuring accuracy and traceability. In Australia, compliance with ISO/IEC 17025 and NATA accreditation is mandatory for many sectors. Without it, businesses face regulatory fines, safety hazards, and wasted resources. Professional calibration services not only safeguard compliance but also extend equipment life and reduce costly downtime. What is an Electronic Equipment Calibration? Calibration compares an instrument with a higher- standard reference and adjusts/quantifies error so results stay within tolerance under a traceability chain that leads to NMI and the SI units. In practice, your device is checked against a reference standard whose value is metrologically traceable ( an unbroken sequence of calibrations with stated uncertainties ) to the International System of Units ( SI ) maintained in Australia by the National Measurement Institute ( NMI ). Good certificates report uncertainty of measurement because ISO/IEC 17025 requires technically valid results with stated uncertainty and traceability. Why Calibration Services are Critical for Australian Industries Calibration services are not optional; they’re integral to compliance and operational reliability across multiple sectors. Pharmaceuticals & Biotech: The TGA mandates strict compliance with GMP . Equipment such as incubators, balances, and humidity controls must be calibrated for accuracy and audit readiness. Food & Beverage: Under Regulation 13 of trade measurement laws, weighing equipment and storage tanks require calibration to ensure fair trade and product consistency. Manufacturing & Engineering: ISO standards demand calibration to ensure measurement of traceability, minimize errors, and guarantee quality. Research & Universities: Data integrity relies on precision instruments. Poor calibration can invalidate entire studies, wasting resources and damaging reputation. Risks of inaccurate calibration include: Costly downtime when faulty equipment disrupts production. Safety hazards from malfunctioning machinery. Regulatory fines and reputational damage from failed audits. Key Business Benefits Compliance & trust: NATA accreditation shows a lab’s technical competence to ISO/IEC 17025 and delivers international recognition ( via ILAC ) that reduces duplicate testing and speeds of acceptance with customers and regulators. Quality & consistency: Regular calibration reduces drift and improves process capability, supporting ISO 9001 quality programs. Operational efficiency: Accurate instruments for lower scrap and rework, stabilize recipes and setpoints, and feed preventive maintenance with real numbers. Commercial confidence: Reliable measurements shorten investigations and disputes; your buyers trust your COAs and production data because they’re traceable. Safety & Regulatory Alignment in Australia Electrical Safety & Plant: WHS guidance expects electrical equipment to be inspected, tested and maintained; jurisdictions reference AS/NZS 3760 for in-service inspection and testing intervals. Calibrated test equipment supports correct decisions about repair/replace/isolate. Food safety ( HACCP ): Australian food businesses must have a probe thermometer accurate to ±1 °C; keeping it calibrated underpins every CCP temperature check. Major Hazard Facilities ( example ): Performance standards often specify calibration/verification windows. Guidance shows PSV pop test acceptance such as ±2 to 3% of set pressure as a performance standard in safety cases calibration is how you prove it. Documentation That Speeds up Audits What a calibration certificate should include ( ISO/IEC 17025 best practice ): Instrument and asset ID, model/serial Method/standard used, measurement points and results (as-found / as-left ) Measurement uncertainty and decision rule ( if conformity is stated ) Traceability statement ( references/standards ) to SI via NMI/NMI-traceable references Environmental conditions, date/technician, next due date NATA’s Metrological Traceability Policy: sets how traceability must be demonstrated; auditors will look for it. Store certificates in a searchable system with expiry reminders ( e.g., a portal ) so audits take minutes, not days. Financial Impact Cutting Downtime and Rework A drifting multimeter, logger or torque wrench can create false alarms ( unplanned stops ) or false passes ( latent defects ). Both are expensive. Hourly cost of downtime × average hours per event × events you prevent annual savings per year. Add scrap cost avoided + service callouts avoided for a fuller picture. Well-planned calibration intervals + on-site service windows = fewer line breaks and faster return to run. Which Instruments Benefit Most from Calibration? Electrical & Electronics: digital multimeters, oscilloscopes, power supplies, PAT testers ( for AS/NZS 3760 work ), insulation testers. Temperature & humidity: probe thermometers (±1 °C requirement in food ), RTDs/thermistors, data loggers, ovens, autoclaves ( many QA programs cite AS 2853 for temperature-controlled enclosures) . Mass & weighing: balances/scales ( production and QC ). Torque / pressure / flow / dimensional: torque wrenches, pressure gauges, flowmeters, calipers/micrometers. Lab/environmental: sound level meters, light/UV meters, CO₂, pH and conductivity instruments. Book Electrical Calibration (NATA) How Often Should You Calibrate? There’s no one-size-fits-all interval. Set periods by manufacturer for recommendation, risk, usage hours, environment, drift history and regulatory needs. Food sites: often 6 to 12 months for thermometers/loggers used at CCPs ( justify in HACCP plan ). Electrical test gear: align with AS/NZS 3760 inspection/testing schedules and your risk assessment. High risk assets ( PSVs, safety loops ): as per performance standards in your safety case ( e.g., PSV pop-test tolerance and proof test frequency ). Risk-based table (example): Risk & usage Typical interval Trigger to shorten Critical to safety/compliance; harsh use 6 months Drift found, process deviations Important to quality; normal use 12 months After repair/shock, out-of-tolerance Low risk; infrequent use 18–24 months Before audits/validation runs Document the rationale; review after each cycle using drift data. NATA-accredited vs. Traceable Calibration: What’s the Difference? NATA-accredited calibration: Performed within a published Scope after independent assessment to ISO/IEC 17025; certificates carry the NATA endorsement and are widely accepted ( ILAC ). Choose this where regulators, customers or contracts expect assessed competence. Traceable ( non-accredited ) calibration: Results include a traceability statement to SI, but the provider’s competence for that activity isn’t independently accredited. Acceptability depends on your risk and customer/regulatory expectations. Choosing a Calibration Partner ( Checklist ) Scope coverage: electrical, temperature, torque, mass, pressure/flow Accreditation: link to NATA Scope; check ranges/CMC (uncertainty) you need Turnaround & logistics: on-site vs pickup, off-shift options, loaners Certificate quality: uncertainty, as-found/as-left, decision rules Systems: asset portal with reminders and search Geography: coverage in NSW/VIC/QLD and beyond Support: advice on intervals, tolerances and risk FAQs Previous Next

Torque calibration ensures safe, accurate torque application. Avoid equipment failure and meet industry standards with consistent results. TORQUE BOOK NOW What is Torque Calibration? Torque Calibration is the process of verifying and adjusting the accuracy of torque tools—such as torque wrenches, screwdrivers, testers, and sensors—to ensure they apply the correct amount of rotational force. Why is Torque Calibration Important? Torque Calibration is critical for product safety, mechanical reliability, and compliance with industry standards. Improper torque can lead to equipment failure, safety hazards, or warranty issues, especially in regulated sectors. - Ensures accuracy of torque tools and equipment - Meets quality standards (e.g., ISO 6789, ISO/IEC 17025) - Improves product safety and reliability - Reduces risk of over-tightening or under-tightening - Supports traceable, consistent production and assembly processes What Equipment Needs Torque Calibration? Torque Calibration is needed across a wide variety of instruments, such as: - Manual and Digital Torque Wrenches - Torque Screwdrivers - Torque Transducers and Sensors - Hydraulic and Pneumatic Torque Tools - Torque Testers and Analysers Who Needs Torque Calibration? Torque calibration is essential for any industry that uses torque tools to tighten bolts, fasteners, or rotating components. This includes: - Automotive and motorsport industries (engine assembly, wheel fitting) - Aerospace and defence (critical safety fastenings) - Manufacturing and engineering (assembly line torque tools) - Construction and infrastructure projects (steelwork and mechanical installations) - Energy and utilities (wind, oil, gas, and nuclear industries) - Medical device manufacturing (precision torque for implants and equipment) - Calibration and test laboratories (traceable torque verification) If your work involves torque wrenches, torque screwdrivers, pneumatic or hydraulic torque tools, or torque sensors, regular calibration is vital to ensure safety, compliance, and quality assurance. How Often Should It Be Calibrated? Torque calibration frequency depends on tool usage, regulatory standards, and application risk level: - Every 6 to 12 months (standard for most industrial and trade applications) - More frequently for high-precision or critical applications (e.g. aerospace, medical) - After tool drops, damage, or suspected faults - Before key projects or audits - As required by ISO 6789, ISO 17025, or internal quality systems Regular calibration helps prevent over-torquing or under-torquing—both of which can lead to serious safety issues or mechanical failures.
