Annual calibration

The SITRANS Verificator must undergo annual calibration for continued use. Annual calibration
assures the quality of the measurements undertaken by the SITRANS Verificator, establishes
metrological traceability and fulfills the requirements of ISO 9001.
The due date for calibration can be seen in the mobile IQ app, when connected to the
Verificator test unit, and on the printed or stored verification certificate. While using the app
with a connected Verificator test unit, 3 months before expiration a prompt will appear. It will
appear again 1 month before expiration and every time the app connects to the Verificator
test unit with an expired calibration afterwards.
A Verificator with an expired calibration will still be able to perform verifications, but the
certificate will include a "not calibrated" watermark.
Re-calibration of the SITRANS Verificator is offered at our Measurement Instrumentation
factory. Contact your local Siemens representative for support: Technical support (Page 48).
Follow the guidelines described under Return procedure (Page 40).

Ordering licenses

Licensing model
To use the SITRANS Verificator for full or partial verifications, you need an active license installed.
The Verificator licenses are tied to the device, which means they are stored on the Verificator and
cannot be transferred to another device.
Each license is valid for one year, with an additional two months included to account for
shipping times during the yearly recalibration. Therefore, the license expires 420 days after
activation. You can activate a maximum of two licenses on a Verificator.
A license enables the Verificator to run a specified number of verifications, as defined in the
license package.
