Calibration Syringes Calibration
Calibrationhouse provides expert calibration for calibration syringes, ensuring precise volume measurement accuracy for respiratory testing, medical compliance, and patient safety.
What is calibration syringe calibration?
Calibration syringe calibration ensures these devices accurately hold and deliver a fixed volume of air, allowing biomedical engineers to verify the performance of spirometers used in respiratory diagnostics. Calibration involves checking the syringe’s volume accuracy against a higher-precision reference standard, ensuring reliable results for lung function testing.
Why is calibration important for calibration syringes?
Calibration syringes are essential in spirometry testing, where they help verify the accuracy of lung function measurements. Regular calibration is necessary to:
- Ensure spirometers provide accurate volume readings for respiratory diagnostics
- Maintain compliance with ERS (European Respiratory Society) test standards
- Prevent misdiagnosis or incorrect treatment of respiratory conditions
- Ensure patient safety in hospitals, clinics, and medical research
Failing to calibrate these syringes can lead to inaccurate spirometry readings, potentially impacting the diagnosis and treatment of conditions such as asthma, COPD, cystic fibrosis, and pulmonary fibrosis.
Does Calibrationhouse offer on-site calibration for calibration syringes?
Calibration of 3-litre calibration syringes is primarily conducted at our Durham-based laboratory due to the precise nature of volume measurement. However, on-site calibration is available upon request for certain customers in the UK.
What expertise does Calibrationhouse have in calibrating calibration syringes?
Calibrationhouse has extensive experience in flow measurement calibration, working closely with NHS EBME departments and private healthcare providers. Our expertise includes:
- 3-litre calibration syringe verification
- Annual volume accuracy checks
- Flow measurement calibration for ventilator testers, including the Rigel Ventest 800 Series
With years of experience in medical calibration, Calibrationhouse ensures precise testing for all makes and models of calibration syringes.
How often should a calibration syringe be calibrated?
The European Respiratory Society (ERS) recommends daily volume accuracy checks for spirometers using 3-litre calibration syringes. However, the syringe itself must be calibrated at least once per year to verify it still holds the correct volume of air.
To assist customers, Calibrationhouse provides automatic reminders for yearly syringe calibration services.
Does Calibrationhouse provide UKAS accredited calibration for calibration syringes?
Yes, Calibrationhouse offers UKAS-accredited calibration, ensuring traceability to national and international standards. Our calibration services meet stringent industry requirements, supporting compliance with ERS and medical safety standards.
Calibration services are available at our Durham laboratory, with fast turnaround times to keep critical respiratory testing equipment in service.
