Whether in the food, pharmaceutical or medical industry, if your facility uses freezers to store perishable goods, you must calibrate their thermometers regularly to comply with regulations and standards.
Calibration ensures the thermometers accurately measure and display the freezers’ temperatures. It’s essential because freezer thermometer readings can lose accuracy over time due to normal wear and tear.
Organizations like the Food and Drug Administration and the International Organization for Standardization provide guidelines on calibration frequency to ensure your facility’s freezers maintain safe temperatures. Your equipment manufacturer should have also provided calibration frequency recommendations.
If it’s time to calibrate your company’s freezers, Garber Metrology can handle the process efficiently and accurately. We will make sure your company’s freezers are calibrated up to the industry’s standards, performing calibration on site or in our laboratory. We are ISO 9001 Registered by NQA and ISO/IEC 17025 and ANSI/NCSL Z540-1-1994 Accredited by ANAB.
Our professionally trained calibration technicians are equipped to calibrate every type of freezer thermometer, including digital, liquid in-glass and infrared.
While procedures vary depending on the thermometer, our process typically involves placing the temperature sensor into a controlled environment, such as a liquid bath or dry-block calibrator. These reference devices are calibrated to industry standards and provide a stable, uniform temperature to compare your thermometer’s reading to.
If your thermometer’s reading deviates from the standard, it needs an adjustment. Our technicians will adjust your thermometer so it correctly displays the freezer temperature.
No matter what type of calibration we perform, we’ll provide a calibration certificate traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
