Calibration Adjustment

PosiTector 6000 probes allow the user to make adjustments to the
XX factory calibration (Zero X , 1-Point X and 2-Point X ).
Calibration adjustments (pg 23) made by the user are stored
within the PosiTector SmartLink.

Certification

All probes include a Certificate of Calibration. For organizations
with re-certification requirements, instruments may be returned at
regular intervals for calibration. DeFelsko recommends that
customers establish calibration intervals based upon their own
experience and work environment. Based on our product
knowledge, data and customer feedback; a one year calibration
interval from either the date of calibration, date of purchase, or
date of receipt is a typical starting point. Written calibration
procedures are available from DeFelsko Corporation at no charge

Calibration, Verification & Adjustment
Calibration, Verification & Adjustment
The PosiTector 6000 non-destructively measures the thickness of
coatings on metals. Three steps ensure best accuracy...
1 Calibration - typically done by the manufacturer. All probes
include a Certificate of Calibration.
2 Verification - typically done by the user on known reference
standards such as plastic shims or coated thickness
standards.
3 Adjustment - to a known thickness
Calibration
Calibration is the high-level, controlled and documented process of
measuring traceable calibration standards over the full operating
range of the probe, and verifying that the results are within the
stated accuracy of the probe. Calibrations are performed by the
manufacturer, their authorized agent, or by an accredited
calibration laboratory in a controlled environment using a
documented process.
