Our calibration laboratory works on many makes and models of equipment, offering a swift turn around without compromising on accuracy. We can calibrate to UKAS standards and Traceable, offering something for everyone. Along with our convenient collection and return service you don't need to look any further for your calibration needs.
Options - UKAS or Traceable
SOUND LEVEL METER
Verification of sound level meters to BS EN 61672/3 or BS 7580 part 1 as appropriate. Includes a full calibration of the measurement microphone; this covers sensitivity at 250Hz, relative frequency response 100-20kHz and polarised self-capacitance. UKAS will be accredited verification with conformance statement.
- Additional Channels
- Frequency Filters
- Reverberation Time
Options - UKAS or Traceable
CALIBRATORS
Verification of sound calibrators to BS EN IEC 60942 in half inch configuration; this provides the sound pressure level, level stability, frequency stability and distortion.
- Additional level or frequency (separate certificate supplied for each level & frequency)
- Multi-level & multi-frequency calibrators - B & K 4226, GenRod 1986
Options - UKAS or Traceable
MEASUREMENT MICROPHONES
Calibration of standardised measurement microphones; includes three independent measurements of open-circuit sensitivity, three independent measurements of polarised capacitance & a relative frequency response within the range 100Hz-20Hz. Includes the update of TED's data within the set.
- Microphone sets - Includes update of TED's data
- Low-frequency calibration 2-100Hz
- Low level calibration
Verification of dodecahedron loudspeaker directivity in accordance with ISO 16283-1, Annex A.
DODECAHEDRON LOUDSPEAKER
Requires matched power amplifier.
Campbell Associates calibration laboratory have developed a verification procedure to comply with these requirements; it mounts the dodecahedron speaker on a rotating spigot in an anechoic chamber which is then rotated through 360° passed a measurement microphone. Measurements are made for each 1°rotation and the gliding arc calculated and compared with the specifications. The example shows the effect of faulty speakers, i.e. no output, damaged speaker, such as scraping coils or damaged cone, and finally the return to normal operation after repair.
For single axis accelerometers providing measurement of sensitivity 80Hz or 160Hz as appropriate & a relative frequency response test at fixed frequencies over a total range of 10Hz to 5Hz (depending on accelerometer specification)
ACCELEROMETERS
Options
- Standard, Low or Wide Range frequency
- Standard, Low or Wide Range Tri-axial

aIR QUALITY MONITORS
Conformance check by comparison
We have a fully maintained reference station at our offices. This is measuring Particulates, NOx and Ozone.
Replacement of sensors
Replace your old particle engines/ counters with new or calibrated service exchange sensors.
Calibration with reference gases
Option for calibration of NO2 using reference gas canisters of certified concentrations.
