Certification Traceable to NIST

The InnoCal Metrology Laboratory provides Sensatronics customers with the documentation needed to meet the most stringent quality requirements for the control of inspection, measuring, and test equipment. Cole Parmer can certify new or existing instrument traceable standards.

Certification includes certificate of calibration with test data.

Certificates contain:

•    description and identification of the Sensatronics item certified

•    condition of the Sensatronics item

•    issue date

•    identification of calibration procedure

•    calibration date

•    as found/as left test data (where applicable)

•    signature of technician

•    statement of estimated uncertainty

•    list of equipment used to perform calibration (including their calibration dates)

With today's high quality standards such as ISO/QS9000, certification is becoming increasingly important. Traceability is not a timeless condition; it must be verified and maintained over the life of the calibration to insure the highest accuracy possible. When you have your calibration done by Innocal, we will send you an automatic reminder when it is time to recalibrate your instrument. The InnoCal Metrology Laboratory is accredited to ISO/IEC 17025 by the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA); certificate number 1746.01. This A2LA accreditation is your assurance that one of the foremost outside auditing agencies approves of our internal laboratory policies and procedures.
