Calibration
Would you like to have your thermometer calibrated to ensure that it indicates the correct temperature? We are happy to do this for you.
Calibrating temperature sensors or thermometers
It is not without reason that HACCP and Legionella prevention legislation and regulations require you to calibrate your temperature sensors and thermometers at least once a year. Eurofins Bureau de Wit can take care of this for you. Let us calibrate your temperature sensors and thermometers so that they always display the correct temperature for food and water.
What is calibration/verification?
During verification, we check the extent to which your measuring instrument deviates from the requirement. We always do this at your location. After this check, you can be sure that a thermometer or temperature sensor is displaying the correct temperature. For responsible management, it is crucial that the indicated value does not deviate too much from the actual temperature. This helps to prevent food poisoning or Legionella contamination.
After verification, you will receive a verification certificate from us. You can show this official document when you receive a visit from the NVWA or IL&T. This demonstrates that your HACCP thermometers or measuring equipment for Legionella prevention are measuring correctly.
Calibrating versus verifying a thermometer
There is a difference between calibrating and verifying thermometers.
Verification: we measure the deviation from the actual temperature and issue a certificate for this.
Calibration: goes one step further than verification and is only legally required in specific situations. During calibration, the measuring instrument is tested according to a prescribed protocol. This can often be done by the supplier of the thermometer. Calibration is mandatory for water meters and petrol pumps, for example.
Are you unsure whether your organisation needs to calibrate its thermometers or whether verification is sufficient? We will advise you on this.
Want to buy a calibrated thermometer?
Are your thermometers due for replacement or do you need extra thermometers? Then you can buy calibrated thermometers from us.
In addition to calibrated thermometers, we also offer various measuring products such as glycerol pots, pH strips, and other tools for reliable recording and monitoring.
