We calibrate all makes and models of temperature sensors in our fully equipped in-house calibration laboratory UKAS certificated and fully traceable to national standards. SDL’s experienced technical team ensure the highest levels of service and accuracy, working closely with clients to offer a cost-effective service with a quick turnaround.
We calibrate a huge range of standard and bespoke temperature measuring devices for clients across the transport, chemical, pharmaceutical, manufacturing and energy sectors.
Our laboratory calibration equipment is tested and fully traceable to UK national standards and NIST and we use established documentation procedures in the calibration process. We issue fully traceable calibration certificates, and if required printouts of the interpolated results, tailored to the type of calibration required, all of which document our procedures, the equipment used and the uncertainty of each measurement.
SDL’s in-house laboratory is UKAS accredited to ISO/IEC17025:2017 (UKAS Lab No. 0171) for the measurement of resistance thermometers and electronic thermometers within the temperature range of -85°C to 650°C. UKAS (The United Kingdom Accreditation Service) is the national accreditation body for UK organisations that provide calibration, testing, certification and inspection services.
As one of the UK's oldest established labs, we are well respected in the industry and undertake calibration and trouble-shooting for other laboratories.
We also provide Fixed Point Calibrations with the lowest possible measurement uncertainties, down to ±0.6mK. These include:
Our highly experienced technicians can advise you on the best approaches for the most demanding of applications.
Typically, most customers will go for a 12-month calibration period.
A customer may have a criteria or specification that their equipment must meet. This is acceptable as long as there is a decision rule agreement in place between the lab and the customer prior to work beginning.
