The post Webinar Recording: How to Avoid the Most Common Mistakes in Field Calibration first appeared on the ISA Interchange blog site.
This ISA webinar on industrial calibration was presented by Hunter Vegas, ISA author and an engineering manager and lead project engineer with Avid Solutions, Inc., and Ned Espy and Roy Tomalino of Beamex.
Field process calibration isn’t just about getting the job done, it’s about getting the job done right. It’s cliché, but true. Instrument calibration requires the proper process, tools and parameters for each instrument application to ensure valid results. If one of the three are lacking, your results could have little validity. In this recorded ISA webinar, experts expose the most easy-to-make mistakes and how to avoid them, so you can be confident in your calibration results.
