The right sensor with the right measuring instrument<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

Do you have several measuring instruments and several sensors that fit all of the instruments? Then it can quickly become difficult to keep track of which sensor belongs to which instrument – especially when you send them in for calibration.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A simple tip is to label each measuring instrument with its own letter or number and then label its associated sensor with the same designation. This makes it clear which ones belong together and reduces the risk of confusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is it important?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

During calibration, the sensor and instrument are calibrated together as a unit. Even if several sensors fit the same measuring instrument, small measurement deviations in both sensor and instrument can affect the measurement value. To ensure reliable measurements, it is therefore important that the measuring instruments are used together with the same sensors with which they have been calibrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simple labeling tips<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Mark instruments and sensors with the same letter, number or color<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Document which devices belong together in a simple list or logbook<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Store sensors together with their instrument if possible<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    This saves time, reduces the risk of mistakes and contributes to a smoother handling of future calibrations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
