Operation
The Tester Calibration Unit was
specifically designed for use in
calibration of Vermason brand
equipment. The following procedures
will not cover adjustment of the test
equipment. For detailed information
regarding adjustment of specific
Vermason brand testers, contact our
Customer Service Department at
0044 (0) 1462 672005.
Frequency of recalibration should be
based on the critical nature of those
ESD sensitive items handled and the
risk of failure for the ESD protective
equipment and materials. In general,
we recommend that calibration be
performed annually.
