How To Save Time & Money By Calibrating Flow Meters Onsite

By Scott, Product Line Director

If you have hundreds of mass flow controllers and meters or just a few in your lab, facility, or manufacturing process, how do you keep up with the demands of annual recalibration? Most flow meters and controllers need to be recalibrated yearly to meet stringent ISO quality standards. This requires technicians to remove the mass flow meters from the process, send the products back to the factory for calibration, wait 4-6 weeks for the products to return, and complete tedious paperwork. The task of managing this calibration process is not only very time-consuming, but costs facilities and labs thousands of dollars in downtime and maintenance costs.
