I am always happy when I talk to customers who have been using a 5720A or even a 5700A calibrator for years, and they tell me they really depend on it and are happy with its performance. But now when I see one of those older calibrators in a lab – especially if that lab is using it as their calibration standard that gives them their scope of accreditation – I have to recommend replacing those calibrators with a new 5730A. In this post I want to explain why I am recommending that and also why...

Anyone performing pressure calibrations can benefit from automation. Whether you are using an automated pressure controller such as the 8270A or PPC4, or a fully manual deadweight tester, there is a lot you can gain, from time savings and increased process consistency, to adding value to your data and certification deliverables. In these times, when calibration technicians may be stretched thin, calibration lab managers should especially consider the value of automation to supplement the...

There are three common methods for calibrating temperature sensors:
Calibrating just the electronics with a simulator
Calibrating both the electronics and the sensor in a dry-well
Calibrating both the electronics and the sensor in a dry-well with a reference thermometer
Here is a quick look at these methods and the pros and cons of each.
Calibrating just the electronics with a simulator
To calibrate the electronics of a temperature measurement/control system, a temperature simulator takes an...
