What calibration methods are used for the sensors
Each component in the ClipR, FlexR and TMV-sensor is validated during production to confirm conformity with its specifications. Calibration is an extra option and can be done at our factory or on-site.
Factory
➢ 10-50 finished sensors are placed on a copper pipe
➢ Temperature controlled hot water (60 °C) is circulating through the test rig
➢ A calibrated high accuracy thermometer ± 0.2 °C is used as reference measurement
➢ Sensors are activated sending their temperature to the portal
➢ Sensors outside the allowed tolerance ± 1.0 °C are discarded
➢ Calibration logs stating min and max deviation for each sensor are generated
On-site
We do not recommend on-site calibration with a clamp-on reference thermometer due to its inaccuracy. To perform a validated on-site calibration use we advise to use a Factorylab mobile testing rig. That allows for the same calibration procedure as described above.
