Many first time clients or persons new to the needs of calibration have standard questions. Listed below are some of the most popular. If your question isn't listed below feel free to contact us, via email or phone. One of our representatives will gladly answer any questions you may have. 

Q. Why should I calibrate my equipment?
A. Calibrating your equipment is one of the most important things you can do as a manufacturer. Any measuring device for flow, pressure, humidity, etc. is there to tell you how much of whatever is being mixed/added/purged. An incorrect reading can cost you in time, accuracy, and most importantly, money. For more information as to why you should calibrate, click here

Q. How long does it take?
A. Our times average 5 business days or less 

Q. What does NIST Traceable mean?
A. NIST trace ability means that the standards we utilize to calibrate your equipment have their respective accuracy's traceable to the standards in use by The National Institute of Standards and Measurement in Washington DC. 

Q. How much does it cost?
A. Our prices are some of the lowest in the industry for a fully NIST traceable certificate, this is why we currently represent some 20+ calibration facilities and over 150 business clients in the US for Flow Calibration. Including calibration services for the U.S. Nuclear Industry where we got our start!  Contact us today for more information about our pricing. 

Q. Do you have expedite Service?
A. We sure do, contact us for more information. We offer 24 or 48 Hr. turnaround for a minor premium. 

Q. Why don't you calibrate with Oil's?
A. Oil calibration is messy, replete with odors, and not for the "faint of heart"  We used to offer oil calibrations, but we snapped out of it. 

Q. I have a piece of equipment that needs calibration but have no idea what it is, can you help me?
A. That's what we're here for! Take a look at our "what can we calibrate" page, if you don't see a rough visual image for what you have displayed, simply contact us and we'll answer your questions. Before you call or e-mail us let us know what the unit's application is, what medium is measures (gases/liquids/temperature/humidity) the flow rate, and any other information on the unit itself. We've worked with hundreds of familiar and some unfamiliar manufacturers, and we haven't been "stumped" yet. 

Q. What information do you need before we contact you for calibration?
A. The most important information we need is the Manufacturer, Model Number, and application. For instance, is the item used with water or air as its medium.
