CALIBRATION SAVES LIVES – MAKE IT A PART OF YOUR MAINTENANCE ROUTINE
Any instrument that measures toxic or combustible gas, needs to be calibrated. These devices protect the safety of workers and anyone who could come in contact with these hazardous gas or material. It’s also the law. It helps to protect your organization against liability if there is an incident, injury, illness or death.
Performing regular calibration and maintenance just makes sense. Don’t take chances. Calibrate your equipment according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. The frequency for calibration and maintenance depends on the equipment and usage.
Make Paradigm your partner for calibration and maintenance. A quick call is all you need to arrange your calibration service. We’ll direct you to send it to the location closest to you. It takes less than a week for most calibration and maintenance jobs to be turned around. In that time, we will:
Inspect and clean all parts of the instrument
Update any firmware
Test all sensors and replace all filters
Provide a full evaluation and advise if any repairs are needed or if it’s time for a replacement
Quick Tip
Speed up your service time by fully charging the unit before sending it in for maintenance. Sending the unit covered in mud or other contaminants can also increase the time it takes for service.
Important Note
It’s a myth that gas detectors work better or faster when the filters are removed. These filters help to keep valuable pumps and mechanisms clean.
With our service, your equipment is returned to the manufacturer’s specifications. Following the manufacturer’s regular maintenance schedules protects safety and helps extend the life of the product. Without maintenance, most instruments will stop working earlier than they should.
- Oxygen sensors have a limited 2 year life expectancy and must be tested and replaced regularly
- Combustible gas, such as Methane, and Carbon Monoxide sensors can easily be poisoned by unassuming substances like cleaners and air fresheners, even when they are not in use
- Firmware is a critical component of your instrument and needs to be updated regularly, as it’s released


Sometimes maintenance is just not enough, and a repair is needed. Please note, if a repair is needed, service may take longer. We’ll give you an estimate for the time needed and the cost – ensuring to get your go-ahead before we make any repair. Paradigm HSE will evaluate and give an estimate for what it costs to repair your equipment – or advise you if replacement is the better option. We’ll let you know if parts are available and can arrange for rental at reasonable rates if your equipment is unavailable. Our repair services are available on all gas detection, industrial hygiene, water monitoring and environmental equipment – even if you bought it somewhere else. Call today for more information on how we can help with your maintenance, calibration and service needs.
