Overview
Accuracy is the foundation of any quality-driven manufacturing process. At Optimeasure, we provide comprehensive calibration services to ensure your measurement instrumentation remains precise, reliable, and compliant with national standards. Whether you are operating a single manual gauge or a fully automated production line, our calibration protocols provide the documented evidence required to satisfy ISO 9001 audits, PSSR (Pressure Systems Safety Regulations), and stringent industry-specific regulatory bodies.
We understand that downtime is a critical factor in your operations. To support this, Optimeasure offers flexible service delivery: we can perform on-site calibration at your facility to keep your production moving, or you can utilize our specialized laboratory for high-precision mail-in services. Every calibration comes with a certificate of traceability, ensuring that your “Pass/Fail” decisions are backed by scientifically sound data.
We can calibrate any manufacturers pressure decay instrument.
Our Calibration Capabilities
On-Site or Lab-Based Calibration
For maximum convenience and minimal disruption, we can calibrate the following equipment at your premises or within our own dedicated facility:
- Pressure & Vacuum Gauges: Ensuring your dials and digital readouts are providing an accurate representation of system pressure.
- Air Leak Standards: Verifying the orifices and master leaks used to “zero” your pressure decay and flow testing systems.
- Flow Sensors: Precise calibration of sensors used in mass flow and dosing applications to ensure consistent volumes.
Specialist Tracer Gas Laboratory Services
Due to the extreme sensitivity and environmental controls required, we provide specialist calibration in our own facility for Tracer Gas Reference Leaks. This is a critical service for anyone adhering to ISO 20485, as it verifies the “known leak rate” your detector uses to calibrate itself. Our laboratory capabilities include:
- Sniff Test Applications: Calibration of both Capillary-style and Canister-style leaks used in manual and robotic sniffing stations (Helium, Hydrogen).
- Vacuum Applications: Precision calibration of reference leaks designed for use within vacuum chambers and high-sensitivity “Group A” leak detection systems.
Inficon / Sensistor: When “Small” Leaks are a Big Problem
The “Why”: If your product carries refrigerants, hydrogen, or high-pressure fuels, a “minor” leak isn’t just a failure—it’s a liability. Traditional air testing often lacks the sensitivity to detect the microscopic paths that these gases can find.
The “When”: Use Inficon/Sensistor technology when you need to detect leaks at a molecular level ($1 \times 10^{-7} \text{ mbar}\cdot\text{l/s}$). Whether you need a standalone sniffer for rework or a high-speed sensor integrated into an automated cell, these systems ensure your containment is absolute.
CTS Schreiner: Making “Waterproof” a Science, Not a Guess
The “Why”: Relying on a “dunk test” is messy, slow, and subjective. To hit IP66 or IP67 standards reliably, you need digital, repeatable data that proves your seals will hold under pressure.
The “When”: Choose CTS Schreiner when you need rapid, non-destructive air leak testing (pressure/vacuum decay) on the production floor. These instruments are built for high-duty cycles and provide the traceable “Pass/Fail” data required to satisfy your most demanding auditors and end-users.
O-Weld: The Future of Precision Brazing
The “Why”: Traditional oxy-acetylene setups are bulky, expensive, and introduce safety risks with stored gas cylinders. Inconsistent flame quality leads to weak joints—the primary cause of leaks in HVAC and electrical assemblies.
The “When”: Switch to O-Weld when you want to simplify your shop floor. By generating high-energy gas from water on-demand, you get a cleaner, more consistent flame that virtually eliminates “dry joints” and brazing defects, ensuring your product passes its leak test the first time.
Optimeasure Proprietary Solutions
OptiBurst: Compliance Without the Complexity
The “Why”: You shouldn’t have to pay for a £20k NDT system just to find out at what pressure a bag pops. Many medical and food packaging manufacturers are over-complicating their QC labs with multi-function machines that are difficult to calibrate and even harder to use.
The “When”: Use OptiBurst when you need a dedicated, no-nonsense tool for ASTM F1140 burst testing. It is the cost-effective “point-and-shoot” solution for testing the ultimate strength of flexible packaging, giving you the exact data you need without the unnecessary software bloat.
OptiVac: The Ultimate Visual “Reality Check”
The “Why”: Sometimes, even the most expensive sensor can be fooled by a “stretchy” pack or high background noise. You need a way to physically see where a seal is failing without destroying the product or creating a mess.
The “When”: Deploy OptiVac for immediate spot-checks on the production line. By using a controlled vacuum to force air out of submerged seals, it provides an undeniable visual stream of bubbles from any leak point. It is the most reliable way to verify seal integrity in food pouches and medical trays where visual confirmation is the gold standard for quality.
