A new calibration laboratory for diagnostic equipment

Testoon, distributor of measuring, testing and control devices, opens its new calibration laboratory for diagnostic equipment: Testoon Lab, for electrical, gas, distance devices (Codiag+, Leica Disto, Fluke 1663, Sefram, MW9660, etc.)

Testoon Lab offers three calibration and verification services for diagnosticians:

• Carbon monoxide measuring apparatus;
• Controllers of multifunctional electrical installations;
• Laser rangefinders.

This involves setting up test benches and defining procedures to ultimately judge whether the device is properly tuned or not in relation to set objectives. This integrated laboratory is thus able to generate a calibration certificate or a verification report.

Three first test benches are proposed for the start-up of the laboratory: an electric bench, aimed at testing all the configurations of the electrical safety measuring devices; a gas verification bench, consisting of probes and chambers into which a standard gas, carbon monoxide, is introduced; as well as a bench dedicated to the verification of laser rangefinders. Each of these calibrators is connected by a higher-level laboratory through a standard chain.

In case of non-conformity, Testoon offers, as the case may be, the adjustment of the equipment by the laboratory or by the manufacturer, the repair or replacement of the device.

Advantages over a conventional laboratory

With this new service offering, diagnosticians have access to a service designed for them and certifying the accuracy of their measurements. By avoiding the use of multiple subcontracting, Testoon guarantees shorter lead times than laboratories. Testoon also offers to adjust certain non-compliant devices or repair and exchange solutions in case of failure.

"As professionals using measuring and diagnostic devices, real estate diagnosticians must regularly check and maintain their equipment to ensure the accuracy of their diagnosis. Testoon now offers a metrology service adapted to this need, with costs and deadlines compatible with this activity," said Jean-Michel Catherin, President of Testoon.
