Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Why is my thermocouple drifting even after a few months of use?

A: This is often due to "Wire Inhomogeneity" or "Junction Oxidation" caused by the aggressive processing environments in Baddi. Regular NABL calibration at Vega helps identify this drift early, ensuring your process remains technically sound.

Q: Can Vega calibrate noble metal thermocouples (Type R, S)?

A: Yes. We specialize in the calibration of Type R, S, and B thermocouples using high-temperature comparison methods, essential for the engineering and utility sectors in Himachal.

Q:WWhat is the difference between simulation and comparison calibration for thermocouples?

A: Simulation only checks the indicator, while Comparison Calibration (which we perform) checks the actual sensor wire in a thermal source. For a Quality Manager, comparison calibration is the only way to ensure the integrity of the sensing element for audit compliance.

Q: How often should thermocouples be recalibrated in harsh environments?

A: Typically every 6–12 months. High heat and chemical exposure accelerate drift, and regular NABL calibration at Vega helps catch errors early and maintain compliance.
