Imagine a world without thermometers. We wouldn’t be able to accurately diagnose fevers or know if our food and drink was safe to eat until after we’d consumed it. Thermometers are used in a wide variety of settings to monitor and control temperature in many different industries, including automotive, HVAC and building management, scientific research and laboratories, and healthcare.

Yet, the only way to be confident your temperature measurements are correct is to use a calibrated thermometer. From calibrating digital thermometers to resistance thermometers, thermocouple thermometers, and even laboratory oven thermometers, AML Instruments are proud to offer an impressive range of thermometer calibration services, with the capability to provide UKAS accredited calibration services for many thermometers and other temperature measuring equipment.

Read on to learn why calibration of a thermometer is so important and how we can help with your temperature calibrations, both on-site and off-site.

Types of thermometers we can calibrate

AML Instruments are accredited to provide on-site UKAS calibrations for many types of thermometer(s), as well as off-site calibrations at our UKAS accredited temperature calibration laboratory. Below is a snapshot of some of the types of thermometers we calibrate from big brands like Brannan, Comark, and Testo.

Dial thermometers (calibrated thermometer with UKAS certificate)

Digital thermometers (calibrated thermometer with UKAS certificate)

Reference thermometers (calibrated thermometer with UKAS certificate)

Resistance thermometers (calibrated thermometer with UKAS certificate)

Liquid in glass thermometers

Probe thermometers (UKAS calibration)

Infrared thermometers

K-Type thermocouples (UKAS calibration)

Dual sensor thermometers (UKAS calibration)

Temperature data loggers.

NB: We cover a wider range of temperature calibrations that are traceable to National Standards. Our UKAS temperature scope will be expanded over time to include a larger range of temperature calibrations.

How AML Instruments can help with calibrating your thermometers

AML Instruments are accredited to calibrate many types of thermometers to UKAS standard. Whether we come to you, or you send your device(s) to our in-house laboratory in Lincolnshire, we’ll ensure your time without temperature measurement is minimal.

We’re happy to travel

With engineers positioned all over the UK, it’s no hardship for us to visit your facility and calibrate your thermometers. We’ll arrange a date and time beforehand that suits you. Before you know it, you’ll be back taking the temperature measurements you’ve come to rely on for your operations.

Send your thermometers to us

The cheapest option is to send your thermometers to us by courier or through the post. We will send your calibrated thermometers back to you within five working days via UPS complete with a traceable calibration certificate.

Need your thermometers back quicker?

Don’t forget our 24/48 hour express service. Before you post your thermometer(s) to us, let us know in advance if you need them back sooner and we’ll ramp up the heat to return them within a day or two.

Thermometer calibration while you wait

If you’re located close to our premises in Lincolnshire or working in the area, there’s always the option to give us a call to see if we can book you in for a “calibrate while you wait” service. This is just as it says on the tin — you wait (you’re more than welcome to a cuppa) and we calibrate your thermometer.

What you receive after your thermometers have been calibrated

Based on your certificate formats, you’ll receive a full calibration certificate with the following details:

Calibration method description.

Temperature points tested.

Errors and uncertainty values.

Pass/fail classification.

Traceability information and reference equipment used.

Environmental conditions.
