Temperature & Humidity Calibration

RICI has developed temperature mapping procedures and calibration reports to adhere to ISO/IEC 17025 requirements. Implementation of the Calibration Services Technical Manual and Equipment Calibration Services Quality Manual ensures our continuing adherence to these international standards. With the direct comparison method, we are capable of producing highly accurate and consistent results across the entirety of our temperature calibration scope. Temperature measurement plays a crucial role in almost every industrial sector.

Calibration of the temperature measuring instruments used, e.g. data loggers, thermal imagers, immersion/penetration probes, thermocouples, etc., is therefore vital. At RICI, you can choose the right calibration points for your measuring instrument according to your individual quality requirements. We calibrate in a range from -196 to +1200 °C with the smallest measurement uncertainties.

Scope of Calibration

• Visual inspection and cleaning
• Technical inspection of equipment functions
• Calibration certificate with target/actual values and measurement uncertainties
• Calibration identification with calibration labelling
• Repair, replacement, and adjustment in consultation

Surface Temperature

In addition to the classic temperature measuring instruments, companies also use measuring devices to check the surface temperature. As an accredited calibration laboratory, RICI has the expertise for contact or non-contact calibration of surface temperature probes and sensors. In the field of contact surface measurement, we calibrate cross-band probes, mushroom cap sensors, or other sensors with special designs. The unique factor is the accredited calibration according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018. Non-contact surface temperature measurements are made during the calibration of thermal imagers and pyrometers. For this, we have several black bodies and are accredited in the range from -18 °C to 350 °C.

Humidity Calibration

The precise calibration of humidity measuring instruments requires superior metrological expertise. RICI’s accredited humidity laboratory is one of the best in Europe, with a measuring uncertainty of up to 0.2% RH in a measuring range from 5 to 95% RH (-18 to +90 °C). The calibrations are performed in different climatic chambers, such as the Thunder or Huminator, or in a humidity generator specially designed together with the PTB.
