Marine operations rely on accurate readings of pressure, temperature, and flow. Over time, gauges drift due to wear, vibration, and environmental conditions. Regular calibration ensures accuracy and prevents safety risks.

Typical Calibration Intervals

• Pressure gauges: Every 12 months.
• Temperature sensors: Every 6–12 months depending on use.
• Flow meters: Annually or after major overhauls.
• Gas detection equipment: Every 3–6 months, with daily bump tests.

Factors Affecting Calibration Frequency

• Exposure to extreme temperatures.
• High vibration or mechanical shock.
• Use in hazardous environments.

Why It Matters

Incorrect readings can lead to dangerous conditions, PSC detentions, and class remarks. Calibration keeps your vessel compliant and safe.
