To ensure that all Fox flow meters meet specified performance parameters and provide accurate, repeatable measurements in the field, all calibrations are performed with NIST-traceable flow standards. Furthermore, all calibration equipment is subject to a meticulous metrology program that includes the selection, control and maintenance of measurement standards. Each meter is shipped from the factory with a Fox Calibration Certificate.
CAL-V™ tests the functionality of the sensor and its associated signal processing circuitry and can be done in the pipe and in normal processing conditions. Zero CAL-CHECK®, ensures the repeatability and cleanliness of the sensor. Read more in the
Fox has developed Calibration Validation, using the CAL-V™ and Zero CAL-CHECK® tests to help our customers avoid sending the meter back for annual or biennial re-calibrations. Using Calibration Validation allows our customers to validate the accuracy and functionality of the meter in the field with a push of a button.
