Calibration - DeFelsko POSITECTOR DPM Full Manual

Calibration

Calibration is the controlled and documented process of
measuring traceable calibration standards and verifying that the
results are within the stated accuracy of the Gage. Calibrations
are typically performed by the Gage manufacturer or by a certified
calibration laboratory in a controlled environment using a
documented process.
The PosiTector DPM is shipped with a Certificate of Calibration
showing traceability to a national standard. For organizations with
re-certification requirements, the PosiTector DPM may be
returned at regular intervals for calibration. DeFelsko
recommends that our customers establish Gage 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 online at no charge
at www.defelsko.com.
