Accredited calibration service for force sensors
11 September 2023
TO ENSURE the high measurement reliability and precision of force sensors, their regular control and calibration within defined intervals is required.

For this purpose, Inelta Sensorsysteme offers an accredited calibration service for force sensors through its subsidiary Vypro. The Vypro calibration laboratory is accredited according to European standard ISO/IEC 17025: 2017 by the Slovak accreditation body SNAS for the mechanical measurand force.
The calibration service includes both products of own manufacture and third-party products in the measurement range from 0.1kN to 200kN. Tensile and compressive force sensors, ring force sensors, but also bending and shear bars, tension measuring clips and special force sensors are tested.
After checking the calibration capability of the test specimen, it is compared to a standard using an EN ISO 376 conform PP force gauge to correct deviations from the standard. An internationally recognised certificate or factory calibration certificate is issued by Vypro as proof of calibration. Traceability of the sensor calibration is ensured via the serial number. Furthermore, Vypro performs application-specific calibrations and offers a repair service for DUTs as well as an express service upon request.
