Convenience
Tektronix calibration plans are convenient and easy to use. With a factory certifited calibration plan, your instrument will receive priority service, placing it ahead of the on-demand calibration queue and minimizing turnaround time. We offer calibration at our Tektronix or Keithley service centers as well as onsite calibration performed on your schedule at your facility. "Calibration due" notices help you keep track of your instrument’s calibration intervals, sparing you the administrative effort of tracking the intervals manually.
When you choose our factory certified calibration plans, you can rest easy knowing you won't miss a calibration and that your equipment is running at peak performance.
Performance
You count on your instruments to function according to their specified performance year after year. The best way to ensure top performance is to follow a consistent calibration schedule, adhering to the recommended calibration interval for each specific instrument. And there is no better source for calibration than the original equipment manufacturer, Tektronix, a pioneer in the test and measurement industry.
Compliance
Your instruments must be calibrated to regional and internationally accepted standards so that their results can be trusted. Tektronix personnel, facilities, and equipment are certified and/or accredited, where applicable, to the following standards:
- ISO/IEC 17025:2005
- ANSI/NCSL Z540.1-1994(R2002)
