Temperature Calibration Services

We sure can! MWS provides calibration services for weighing and non-weighing equipment such as temperature, pressure, magnets, metal detectors, humidity, salt analysers, Milliamp and voltage loop measurement, pH and conductivity meters, and more!

Temperature calibration is all about making sure that your thermometer, probe, or temperature system is spot on by comparing it to a known reference. This process is crucial for industries that are heavily regulated, like food production, pharmaceuticals, and laboratories, where keeping an eye on temperature can make or break product quality, safety, and compliance. By regularly calibrating, you can trust that your readings are accurate, meet audit standards, and minimise the chances of losing products due to temperature mishaps.

MWS can calibrate a variety of sensors and instruments, including PT100 and PT1000 sensors, thermistors, and thermocouples like Type K, J, N, T, R, and S.

Our services extend to handheld thermometers, temperature transmitters, indicators, chart recorders, controllers, and HMI displays, plus complete systems that are set up on ovens, fridges, freezers, and other process equipment.

Temperature simulation is when we create a known electrical signal to mimic a specific probe. This helps us check that the chart recorder, controller, or HMI is set up correctly and showing accurate values.

On the other hand, full loop calibration takes a deeper dive, testing the entire measurement chain, from the physical probe all the way to the indicator or display. This ensures that every component of the system is working in harmony and that the temperature reading truly reflects what’s being measured.

For our probes and readouts, we calibrate temperatures from -25°C to 660°C using dry temperature blocks, which can also be adapted for liquid baths, perfect for hygiene probes.

When it comes to temperature mapping applications, our probes can handle a broader range from -40°C to 1200°C. This flexibility allows us to support everything from cold storage to high-temperature industrial processes.

Absolutely! We conduct temperature mapping for controlled environments like ovens, environmental chambers, fridges, and freezers.

Using nine calibrated probes strategically placed throughout the area, we monitor the temperature over a set period to evaluate gradients and stability. The results provide clear evidence that the environment meets your specified limits and operates consistently.

All our temperature calibrations are traceable to national standards and comply with the International Temperature Scale of 1990 (ITS-90).

For thermocouple calibration, we follow BS EN 60584-1:2013, ensuring that we adhere to recognised standards and documented procedures.

Absolutely! MWS is fully accredited to calibrate a wide range of weighing equipment, from precision balances up to industrial bench scales and weigh bridges, as well as a range of test, measurement and process equipment.

Thanks to our team of multiskilled engineers, we can often tackle both types of calibration during the same visit. This not only minimises disruption at your site but also streamlines your calibration program.

The frequency of calibration really depends on the specific application, how critical the process is, and any regulatory or quality system requirements you might have.

Many organisations opt for annual calibration as a baseline, but if you’re dealing with higher-risk or frequently used systems, you might need to check them more often. We can take a look at your process and recommend a suitable calibration interval based on practical risks and compliance needs.

We provide calibration certificates that are traceable to UKAS.

Our procedures are conducted within a UKAS ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited quality system, ensuring that all calibrations are performed using controlled methods and well-documented processes.
