To ensure that your instruments continue to meet these demanding standards we offer full calibration services to the highest possible accreditation standard, ISO17025*. All of our calibration packages ensure you can have complete confidence in your data by incorporating a series of operational and performance qualification tests to meet the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) specifications in addition to the relevant industry standards.
The calibration will be performed in an Evident Repair Center (RRC) operating in compliance with a quality system e.g. ISO 9001 or ISO 17025 providing a follow-on calibration certificate to the original received at the point of purchase from Evident.
In line with our quality management systems, the calibrations are carried out by fully certified technicians, equipment and service management systems. The calibration test equipment is frequently calibrated. The environment in terms of temperature and humidity is constantly monitored and stated on the calibration certificate. The test procedures are in-line with factory or international standards to confirm compliance of the products to its original specifications.
The calibration certificate is stating a unique calibration certificate number, equipment, serial number, equipment description and calibration date.
As part of the calibration suitable software and firmware updates updates can be installed.
