How often should I calibrate my measuring device?

This question is frequently asked and not easy to answer. As a general guideline, we recommend a calibration cycle of one year.

Ultimately, the decision on recalibration lies with the customer. Important factors include how frequently the device is used and the environmental conditions. Frequent use increases the risk of measurement uncertainty and therefore requires shorter calibration intervals than devices used less often.

Regular calibration helps prevent production issues such as reduced product quality, faulty production, recalls, and audit problems.

Sourcetronic also offers fast and standard-compliant calibrations in its own professional calibration laboratory.
