Ensuring trustworthy measurements in the digital process industries.
In the realm of digital process industries, where precision and reliability are paramount, the importance of accurate measurements cannot be overstated. Every step of a process, whether in fuel stations or pharmaceutical laboratories, hinges on trustworthy data. This is where accreditation plays a crucial role, ensuring that organisations meet the highest standards of technical competence and reliability.
The scope of services offered by BCC (Bronkhorst Calibration Centre) is both diverse and comprehensive. Acting as both an in-house lab for Bronkhorst's internal needs and an external calibration hub for various industries, BCC leaves no stone unturned in its pursuit of excellence. Additionally, Bronkhorst extends its commitment to precision globally, with a state-of-the-art service facility located at its subsidiary, Bronkhorst India. This facility mirrors the standards of excellence upheld at BCC, providing top-notch calibration services to clients in the region.
Why calibration matters
Flow meters, integral to countless processes, undergo calibration as a final step in production. This meticulous process compares instrument parameters with fixed references under specific environmental conditions, ensuring accurate flow measurements. In industries like pharmaceuticals, (petro) chemical, food & beverage, and energy, where precision is non-negotiable, calibration serves as a cornerstone of risk management, providing assurance to process owners and regulators alike.
The role of accreditation
Bronkhorst's Calibration Centre serves a dual purpose: maintaining calibration standards for internal use and offering external ISO/IEC 17025 calibrations to customers and service stations worldwide. This accreditation, recognised internationally, signifies the highest level of calibration security available, making it indispensable for industries where accuracy is paramount.
Unparalleled precision
To uphold our commitment to precision, the BCC operates under stringent conditions. The environment is meticulously controlled, with temperature maintained at 21°C ± 2°C and humidity at 50 ± 20%. Strict protocols ensure minimal interference, with non-authorised personnel barred from entering the calibration centre.
The calibration process
Every calibration undergoes rigorous scrutiny. Before commencement, a leakage test ensures quality assurance. Standard calibrations are conducted across multiple measurement points to ascertain instrument accuracy. Upon successful calibration, instruments are labeled with calibration details for traceability, with all data meticulously documented and reviewed.
Training and safety
Our calibration operators are extensively trained to perform gas, pressure, and liquid calibrations to ISO/IEC17025 standards. Safety is paramount, with regular checks and close monitoring of all activities to mitigate risks associated with human error.
The intrigue of calibration work
What sets apart calibration work is its dynamic nature. Each day presents unique challenges and opportunities to contribute to our customers' success. Knowing that our precision plays a vital role in their processes adds an extra layer of satisfaction to our work.
Onsite calibrations
For clients requiring calibration services at their facilities, Bronkhorst India offers comprehensive onsite calibration solutions. Our expert technicians bring precision directly to your doorstep, ensuring minimal disruption to your operations while upholding the highest standards of accuracy and reliability. With our onsite calibration services, you can trust Bronkhorst to optimise your instruments' performance wherever you are.
