NABL Accredited RTD PT-100 Calibration Services in Dammam: Precision Thermal Validation

Comprehensive Service Offerings

To maintain technical excellence in the Middle East, we employ methodologies that account for the unique stress factors of the region:Thermal Comparison Calibration

• Comparison Calibration (Thermal): We compare your RTD PT-100 sensors against our master SPRT (Standard Platinum Resistance Thermometer) in a stabilized medium. This captures the true physical response of the sensor, which is critical for the high-pressure reactors found in Jubail.

• Fixed Point Calibration: For the most sensitive research applications in KFUPM (Dhahran), we offer calibration at the Triple Point of Water (0.01°C), providing the absolute peak of measurement certainty.

• Electrical Simulation: Using high-precision process calibrators to simulate RTD signals. This is essential for verifying the loop accuracy of transmitters and distributed control systems (DCS) in Dammam's automation-heavy plants.

• On-Site (In-Situ) Calibration: Our mobile calibration teams are authorized to enter major industrial zones, providing on-site validation for sensors that cannot be removed from production lines, such as those in large-scale storage tanks in Ras Tanura.

Types of NABL Temperature Calibration Services

Our service portfolio is designed to cover the entire lifecycle of your temperature sensors. We offer :

At Vega, we recognize that the harsh coastal environment of the Arabian Gulf—characterized by high humidity, extreme ambient heat, and saline air—can accelerate the degradation of thermal sensors. Our Dammam facility is specifically equipped to counteract these factors. We utilize ultra-high stability liquid baths and precision dry-block furnaces to characterize RTD PT-100 sensors (including 2, 3, and 4-wire configurations) across a wide range from -80°C to +600°C.Every calibration performed for our clients in the Dammam 1st and 2nd Industrial Cities is backed by an NABL-accredited certificate. These documents provide a comprehensive Uncertainty of Measurement (MU), ensuring your facility adheres to both SASO (Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization) and international metrological benchmarks.

Industry Segments We Serve

Textiles & Apparel

In the massive garment clusters of Tiruppur and the spinning mills of Coimbatore, temperature control in dyeing and finishing is critical. If an RTD PT-100 drifts in a high-pressure dyeing machine, it can lead to shade variations and fabric damage. Our calibration ensures consistent color reproducibility and energy efficiency.

Pumps, Valves & General Engineering

Coimbatore supplies nearly half of India’s motors and pumps. The precision engineering shops in Ganapathy and Singanallur use RTD PT-100 sensors to monitor bearing temperatures during endurance testing. Vega provides the rugged calibration support needed to ensure these components meet international performance standards.

Automotive & Aerospace Components

For the automotive parts manufacturers in Pollachi and Malumichampatti, adhering to IATF 16949 is mandatory. We calibrate the RTD PT-100 sensors used in heat treatment furnaces and environmental test chambers, providing the rigorous documentation needed to pass Tier-1 and Tier-2 automotive audits.

Food Processing & Agri-Tech

The food processing units near Mettupalayam and the poultry hubs of Palladam rely on temperature-sensitive processes. From pasteurization to cold storage, our NABL-certified RTD PT-100 calibration mitigates the risk of spoilage and ensures compliance with FSSAI safety norms.

Industrial Use Cases

Refinery Distillation Columns

In refinery distillation columns, RTDs are strategically installed at multiple trays and critical points to continuously monitor temperature gradients that govern separation efficiency. Even a minor deviation can affect vapor–liquid equilibrium, leading to off-spec products or reduced yield. Our precision calibration ensures measurement accuracy within ±0.1 °C, enabling operators to maintain optimal reflux ratios and cut points. This level of accuracy directly supports consistent fractionation of crude oil into LPG, naphtha, kerosene, diesel, and heavier fractions. Properly calibrated RTDs also reduce energy losses, prevent column flooding or weeping, and help refineries meet stringent quality and regulatory requirements.

Lube Oil Blending Plants

In Dammam’s specialized lube oil blending facilities, RTDs play a critical role in controlling blending and heating temperatures during formulation. Lubricant performance depends heavily on maintaining precise temperatures to ensure proper dissolution and dispersion of additives such as viscosity index improvers, antioxidants, and detergents. Our accurate RTD calibration ensures temperature control remains stable throughout the blending process, preventing thermal degradation or premature breakdown of sensitive additives. This results in consistent viscosity, improved oxidation stability, and longer service life of finished lubricants. Reliable temperature measurement also minimizes batch rejections, improves repeatability, and ensures compliance with international lubricant quality standards.

Cold Storage & Logistics

Cold storage and logistics facilities near King Fahd International Airport rely on ultra-low-temperature freezers, often operating down to –80 °C, for the storage of pharmaceuticals, vaccines, and biologics. In the harsh desert climate, even brief temperature excursions can compromise product efficacy and patient safety. We calibrate RTDs used in deep-freezers and monitoring systems to ensure accurate, traceable temperature readings across the entire storage range. Our calibration supports regulatory compliance with GDP and pharmaceutical guidelines, reduces the risk of spoilage, and provides confidence that life-saving drugs remain stable and effective throughout storage and transport.

Metal & Mining

In the aluminum smelters and steel foundries of the Eastern Province, high-temperature RTDs are essential for precise furnace and heat-treatment control. These sensors monitor critical process temperatures that directly influence grain structure, mechanical strength, and overall alloy quality. Our calibration services ensure RTDs maintain accuracy and stability under extreme thermal conditions, enabling consistent melting, casting, and annealing operations. Accurate temperature control prevents defects such as cracking, warping, or improper alloy formation, thereby safeguarding structural integrity. Properly calibrated RTDs also improve energy efficiency, reduce rework and scrap, and help metal producers meet demanding industrial and safety standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: How does the coastal environment of Dammam affect the drift of an RTD PT-100?

A:The combination of high humidity and salinity can lead to insulation resistance (IR) degradation in the sensor's sheath. We recommend a 6-month calibration cycle for sensors located in coastal areas like Khobar or Jubail to detect moisture ingress before it causes a "short" in the sensor signal.

Q: Can Vega provide the "Uncertainty Budget" required for our Saudi Aramco inspection?

A: Yes. As part of our ISO/IEC 17025:2017 compliance, every certificate includes a detailed uncertainty budget. This is a technical requirement for high-risk industries to ensure that the measurement risk is quantified and acceptable for the process.

Q: Do you offer on-site calibration for the large dyeing units ?

A: Absolutely. Our mobile teams are fully equipped to perform on-site NABL calibration for RTD PT-100 sensors across the industrial belts.

Q: Is Vega's NABL certification recognized by the Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA)?

A: Yes. Through the ILAC MRA (International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation Mutual Recognition Arrangement), NABL-accredited certificates are internationally recognized, including by the SFDA and SASO within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
