What is the difference between calibration vs bench check?
An inspection/verification from a third-party, non-Barfield authorized repair station, is not considered recertification of the Test Equipment. It determines, at best, if the Test Equipment’s performance meets Barfield’s published specifications. It is important to clarify that Recertification does NOT result in any adjustments to the measurement system.
The process of Calibration requires the Unit Under Test (UUT) be compared to Certified Traceable Standards. Adjustments are made to the UUT during calibration in order to align the UUT to the exact values of the Standards so that the errors at all required test points are zeroed out.
A true Calibration results in the equipment operating at its optimum accuracy and performance levels, which ensures the instrument will maintain its performance specification for another year until the next annual calibration recertification is due.
In summary, the recertification (calibration) is normally required to be performed every year; “inspection-verification” is NOT recertification.
