About Moisture Probe
Calibration and Recalibration
Moisture Probe Calibration
Each aluminum oxide sensor is individually
calibrated in one of our advanced moisture
calibration facilities. Our facilities use ow,
temperature and pressure measurement devices,
traceable to national standards, to generate
precisely known moisture concentration calibration
gases that are passed by each probe during the
calibration process.
All data is taken and stored by a dedicated
computer system. Calibrations are repeated
numerous times to determine the stability of each
individual moisture probe. Only those probes that
meet GE’s demanding specications for accuracy
and stability are shipped to our customers.
Moisture Probe Recalibration Service
GE provides moisture probe recalibration as a
service to our customers. Recalibration involves
cleaning contaminants from the probes and putting
moisture probes through our standard calibration
procedure described above.
The updated calibration data is collected and
dated. The moisture probe is then returned to you
with a new calibration data sheet. In addition to
providing updated calibration data, we also review
the calibration history of the moisture probe for
GE moisture probe calibration system
unusual changes. We regularly contact customers
with feedback to ensure proper installation and to
recommend adjustments in the calibration cycle.
Typically, GE recommends recalibration on a sixto twelve-month cycle.
