Examples of the many instruments that experts can calibrate include load cells, lab scales, data acquisition sensors, temperature sensors, laboratory chemical sensors, strain gauges, automotive sensors (light sensors, temperature sensors, mass airflow sensors, wheel speed sensors, fuel level sensors, airbag sensors, etc.), proximity sensors, optical gauges (fiber optic sensors, LED sensors, photon counters scintillators, photo switches, etc.), temperature gauges (thermometers, calorimeters, thermocouples, bimetal strips, pyrometers, flame detectors, etc.), navigational instruments, Geiger counters, and more.

On-Site Calibration: GCC Lab provides calibration services on customers&#; site (Field Calibration) where is often performed on equipment that is too large or sensitive to be shipped to us, or that can&#;t be taken out of the production line for few days at a time. With GCC Lab, you&#;ll enjoy the flexibility of our Site Calibration Services because we offer to meet your scheduling needs and minimize production shutdowns.

 Test & measurement instruments drift over time, but you can’t afford errors. You depend on accuracy and reliability. Whether you need to calibrate every year or every three months, you can count on KARMA LAB to get the job done in a timely fashion and provide exceptional customer service. We will never treat you like a number. Operate at peak efficiency by making KARMA LAB Controls & Instrumentation your one-stop shop for all your calibration needs.

Today, in addition to using IEC and ISO standards, the United States regularly updates its own national regulations for performance and calibration. These regulations are enforced by agencies like the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). This helps to create standards that are applicable for safety and efficiency across the country. All quality calibration service providers can show evidence that they and their equipment are accredited by organizations like NIST. We highly recommend that you only work with accredited suppliers.

During the Renaissance and Industrial Revolution, inventors created all sorts of measurement devices, such as Torricelli’s mercury barometer in . The creation of these devices eventually gave rise for the need to have a way to make sure they were accurate. During the Civil War, people first began using the word calibrate in reference to the caliber of a gun, or the measurements of its inside barrel, and bullet outside diameters. As a result, gun manufacturers began referring to calibration as the process of measuring gun barrels and bullets to make sure they were well-matched. Eventually, this term bled over into other accuracy and measurement applications.
