Indonesia has depended
on Tridinamika for the past 14 years
in terms of its test and measuring equipment servicing needs, including thermometer calibration.
Thermometer Calibration, Significance and Standards
Thermometer calibration is a procedure that ensures accurate results
provided by the temperature-measuring instrument. At the core of the process is
a comparison between a thermometer’s actual temperature and national and
international standards. The instrument is placed in a
normally temperature-stable environment, and the standard reading is compared
with the reading from the thermometer. The difference becomes the basis for the calibrator to make adjustments, so that both data are consistent
with each other. To ensure optimum performance, thermometers and all other test
and measurement equipment must be tested regularly (at least once a year). At Tridinamika, calibration is provided
with proper documentation in line with the ISO 9000 and ISO 17205 calibration
programs.
Relevance of Thermometer Calibration
Various industries rely
on precise data. When the instrument used is not properly calibrated, it can
give the wrong information, leading to the wrong actions taken. In a
restaurant, for example, certain foods have to be cooked at certain
temperatures. If the food thermometer’s readings are false, a chef could end up
serving under cooked or overcooked dishes. Accurate readings are more critical
in the medical care setting, where wrong data can compromise the health and
even the lives of patients. In Indonesia, different companies and organizations
in various industries rely on Tridinamika’s
expertise in thermometer calibration.
The company only employs skilled technical engineers and provides
expert-controlled environments, not to mention state-of-the-art technologies to
ensure quality calibration of thermometers and other test and measuring
equipment.
