AFTER-SALES SERVICE

SF₆ GAS ANALYZER CALIBRATION SERVICE

Gas analyzers are essential to the safety and success of many industries, from manufacturing and field use to research facilities. These instruments analyze the concentration and quality of compounds within a gas or gas mixture. DILO’s gas analyzer calibration services help maintain the accuracy, reliability, and performance of this critical equipment.

To function optimally, analyzers require periodic calibration. In SF₆ gas handling, frequent calibration ensures accurate readings and supports zero emissions. In addition to manufacturing innovative SF₆ gas analyzers, DILO provides professional calibration services performed by certified technicians to ensure long-lasting equipment performance. This level of support is especially important for businesses that depend on precise SF₆ gas calibration in demanding applications

Analyzers should be calibrated at least every two years based on average use. If a “lifetime of sensors expired” warning appears, the analyzer should be sent in for calibration immediately. Regular preventative maintenance extends the life of the unit, while improper calibration may result in exposure to arc byproducts, equipment damage, or inaccurate readings. A consistent gas analyzer calibration schedule helps reduce these risks and supports dependable performance over time.

Recommended: calibrate at least every 2 years

Or immediately if a "lifetime of sensors expired" warning appears.

HOW IT WORKS

Calibration Process

When an analyzer is sent to DILO’s Analyzer Calibration Laboratory, a certified technician performs a detailed gas analyzer calibration procedure and service process that may include:

  1. Initial inspection and functional testing of the unit and accessories
  2. Leak testing of the complete unit
  3. Review of service history
  4. Software updates when applicable
  5. Estimates and lead times for additional repairs or upgrades
  6. Customer approval prior to repair work
  7. Safe neutralization and disposal of components exposed to arc byproducts
  8. Sensor and module calibration or exchange
  9. Third-party calibration certificate
  10. Replacement of missing manuals when available

Technicians also evaluate real-world performance, adjust units that are out of tolerance, and identify issues such as contamination or worn components.

DILO ADVANTAGE
