Course overview
Want to know more about what you can expect from your calibration classes? Here’s a short overview of the key areas in the calibration course.
1. Calibration basics
However much you already know – or think you know – about calibration, it’s always good to go over the basics. In this section you will learn all about the fundamental concepts of calibration, the reasons to calibrate, why calibration is important, and the critical issue of traceability. We’ll also explore how frequently instruments should be calibrated to maintain accuracy. Once you finish this section of the course you’ll have a solid foundation of the essentials of calibration.

2. Temperature units and sensors
In the second section of the course we’ll dive into the world of temperature measurement, gaining insight into different temperature units and temperature unit conversions. You’ll also learn more about Pt100 sensors and thermocouples and how and where they’re used. Once you’ve covered this section of the calibration training you’ll be ready to combine your knowledge of calibration and temperature to find out about calibrating temperature sensors and sanitary sensors.

5. Calibration uncertainty
Calibration uncertainty is an essential factor to understand when performing industrial temperature calibration. In this section of the course you’ll learn to navigate calibration uncertainty and evaluate it effectively. You’ll also discover how to manage uncertainty in temperature calibration. Finally, we’ll explore the concept of temperature dry block uncertainty, a crucial aspect of temperature calibration.
