As a UKAS accredited laboratory (4296) you can be sure that our staff are competent and fully-trained, our instruments are calibrated and properly maintained, and our work is carried out in the correct conditions.
UKAS is an internationally recognised accreditation body and UKAS accreditation ensures full metrological traceability of data. We calibrate all makes and models of pipettes and repeat dispensers, manual and electronic.
Use our MAIL-IN SERVICE with a quick turnaround, or we can come to you forON-SITE SERVICING.
All pipettes for servicing must be accompanied with a completed and signed UKAS Decontamination Declaration!
As Found calibrations provide a check of the current performance of your pipette, enabling you to validate previous work. No adjustment or servicing is performed. As Found is purely a statement of how the instrument is performing.
All levels include the following:
As-Found calibration carried out at manufacturer's, ISO8655 or your own specification (note your requirement on the Decontamination Declaration)
Calibration Date Sticker to show the next calibration due date (if defined on the Decontamination Declaration)
A Certificate of Calibration showing a pass or fail based on the target specification
To determine accuracy and precision, calibration is carried out at set volume points with a specified number of readings depending on the service level, as shown below:
1) IMPORTANT: By selecting 5 readings per volume it is with the understanding that it will NOT permit a conclusion on conformity with ISO8655. The minimum requirement for conformity is 10 readings.
If your pipette is not within the target specification, we can perform a Service and As Returned UKAS Calibration (if requested beforehand on the Decontamination Declaration).
Mail-in
Mail-in pretend.
With a Service & UKAS Calibration, adjustment and servicing is undertaken. The purpose is to confirm post-calibration accuracy. It does not determine if the pipette was providing correct measurements during its last period of use.
All levels include the following:
Pipette dismantled, cleaned internally, inspected, leak tested and, if necessary, worn parts replaced
Pipette externally cleaned
Calibration carried out at manufacturer's, ISO8655 or your own specification (note your requirement on the Decontamination Declaration)
If necessary, your pipette will be adjusted to comply and recalibrated to meet the required specifications
Certification of Calibration showing the results and any spare parts fitted
Calibration Date Sticker to show the next calibration due date (if defined on the Decontamination Declaration)

UKAS pre & post calibration.
Pre & Post Calibrations provide both a statement of how the instrument is performing "as-found", and then adjustment and servicing is undertaken to confirm "as-left" post-adjustment accuracy.
All levels include the following:
As-Found UKAS calibration carried out at manufacturer's, ISO8655 or your own specification (note your requirement on the Decontamination Declaration)
A Certificate of Calibration showing a pass or fail based on the target specifiction
Service. Pipette dismantled, cleaned internally, inspected, leak tested and, if necessary, worn parts replaced
Pipette externally cleaned (if stated on Decontamination Declaration and Purchase Order)
As-Left UKAS Calibration carried out at manufacturer's, ISO8655 or your own specification
If necessary, your pipette will be adjusted to comply and recalibrated to meet the required specifications
Certification of Calibration showing the results and any spare parts fitted
Calibration Date Sticker to show the next calibration due date (if defined on the Decontamination Declaration)
