High-precision calibration with ifm electronic.
Essen, October 2012 - The accuracy of pressure and temperature sensors plays a decisive role for the product quality in the production process. This is why the requirements regarding product certification are permanently increased. More and more customers - in particular from the food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries - demand a calibration certificate for each purchased sensor. As of July 2012, the ifm calibration laboratory holds the important, internationally recognised DAkkS accreditation for pressure and temperature sensors to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025. As of now, ifm electronic offers the calibration of new sensors purchased ex works as well as periodic calibrations. The comparative measurement for the calibration of pressure sensors is performed with high-precision pressure compensators by using known mass pieces. The 11-point DAkkS calibration is carried out in the measuring range from -1...700 bar. Depending on the reference pressure, the minimum measurement uncertainty is between 20 µbar and 140 mbar. For temperature sensors, the comparative measurement is carried out in stirred, temperature-controlled liquid baths using high-precision reference temperature sensors. DAkkS calibration reports with a different number of measurement points in the range from -20...150 °C are offered. Hence, the regular monitoring of sensors, in particular at critical points in the processes, is reliably ensured.
