The Importance and Benefits of Regular Calibrations
Once you begin to use your precision Dickson instrumentation, regular calibrations are necessary to ensure accurate readings.
The following Calibration Services are available:
•N150 - NIST Traceable Calibration
•N350 - NIST Traceable Calibration
Why should I recalibrate my instrumentation?
Over time dirt, dust and normal handling can throw your precision instrumentation out of calibration. Regu- lar calibrations ensure that you receive the most accurate readings possible.
How often should I recalibrate my instrumentation?
Depending on the environment your instrument is used in and how often it is handled you will want to recalibrate your instrument every 6 to 12 months. Instruments in environments where there are extreme tem- peratures, wide temperature ranges, humidity or pressure variations, high condensation, dirt, dust and other debris will require calibration at least every 6 months. Instruments that are frequently moved or in locations with heavy machinery that cause vibrations should also be calibrated at least every 6 months.
Why should I return my instrument to Dickson for calibration?
Dickson calibrates your instrument at the factory using proprietary production/calibration software that guarantees proper calibration.

Order Form with your unit for calibration with freight prepaid to Dickson.
Calibration
Periodically check accuracy with a test gauge. If pen adjustment is required, use the adjusting screw located inside the door on the upper left corner of the dial plate. Check two points on the scale when adjusting the pen to make sure recorder calibration is maintained.
Note: When no signal (no pressure) is being applied to the recorder, the pen may not rest exactly on the zero chart line. It is possible for the allowable 2% of scale error to occur at zero, while upscale readings are increasingly more accurate.
