Paperless Calibration

The main aims of switching to a paperless calibration system are to create improvements in quality and reductions in cost. Paperless calibration is a more efficient method of recording and proving analysis of calibration data and almost totally removes the risk of manual errors occurring thus engendering a greater trust in the quality of the data and more accurate analysis of your historical trends. Paperless calibration systems are comprised of documenting calibrators and the corresponding calibration software. While the cost of setting up paperless calibration is higher than the traditional manual system, the long term benefits are significant in terms of cost, quality and efficiency.

Calibration in Hazardous Areas

In hazardous environments, such as oil rigs, chemical plants and gas pipelines, where safety in all things is of paramount importance, Beamex can provide your team with the right tools to ensure that all safety requirements are met while still performing with accuracy and efficiency. Beamex utilises intrinsic safety (IS) for these specially designed products which ensures that the electrical and thermal energy within the system is so low, ignition is not able to occur and cause explosions whether the environment contains gas, vapour, mist or combustible dust. Intrinsically safe is the sole technique allowed to be used in Zone 0 environments where explosive gas and air is present continuously or for extended periods of time.

Calibration & Configuration of Smart Instruments

Fieldbus transmitters use a completely digital signal, unlike conventional transmitters, but they still require calibration in order to maintain stability over time.
