Pipette Calibration & Preventive Maintenance

Built Around
Your Lab’s SOP.

Standard and custom pipette calibration, preventive maintenance, adjustments, as-found testing and repair evaluation for laboratories throughout Houston and surrounding areas.

Simple by default.
Custom when needed.

Our standard calibration is designed for laboratories that need dependable performance verification without overcomplicating the service. We also support customer-specific testing based on internal SOPs and quality requirements.

Calibration can be evaluated against ISO 8655 requirements or applicable manufacturer tolerances.

High + Low Volume Testing

Our standard service uses two test volumes across the pipette's operating range.

10%Low test volume
100%High test volume
3Measurements per volume
  • Three measurements at each test volume
  • Performance verification against selected tolerance criteria
  • Adjustment performed as needed during service
  • Calibration certificate and service documentation

Add a Middle Volume

A middle test volume can be added upon request for laboratories that require a three-volume test plan or additional data.

Standard Calibration

Routine calibration and performance verification for laboratories needing a clear, efficient standard service.

  • 10% and 100% test volumes
  • 3 measurements per volume
  • Adjustment as needed
  • Calibration documentation

As-Found Data

Available upon request as an additional service when your SOP or quality process requires pre-adjustment results.

  • Captures performance before adjustment
  • Useful for audit or SOP requirements
  • Can be combined with standard or custom testing

Custom Calibration

Testing can be tailored to your SOP, test-volume requirements or other customer-specified criteria.

  • Custom test volumes
  • Additional data points
  • Customer-specific SOP requirements
  • ISO 8655 or manufacturer tolerances, as applicable

Service beyond the measurement.

Preventive maintenance is part of keeping a pipette reliable between calibration cycles. Service is performed as appropriate for the instrument and its condition.

Disassembly / OpeningInternal components are accessed as needed for inspection and service.
CleaningAccessible components are cleaned as appropriate.
LubricationApplicable moving components are lubricated when needed.
Seal & O-Ring InspectionWear components are inspected for condition and performance.
Tip Cone InspectionTip-cone condition and fit are checked.
Piston InspectionPiston condition and movement are reviewed as part of service.

What happens when a pipette needs more.

Included when needed

Adjustment

Adjustment is part of the calibration service when necessary to bring the pipette into the selected tolerance criteria, provided the instrument can be appropriately adjusted.

Separate service

Repair Evaluation

Repairs are handled separately from calibration and are subject to evaluation and the discretion of the service provider based on instrument condition, parts availability and repairability.
