Calibration Reminders for Plant Sensors

Comparison against a reference instrument is scheduled per sensor. A reminder goes out when a sensor is due for verification or replacement, and the due list is open to maintenance.

Why a sensor needs a calendar

A sensor can drift while still reporting, so its readings look normal on the screen. Device health alerts catch a probe that goes silent, but they do not catch a slow drift. A scheduled comparison against a reference instrument does. The calendar keeps that check from being forgotten.

How the reminders work

Schedule per sensor

Each sensor is given a verification date or interval. The interval is agreed with your maintenance team and not fixed by the software.

Reminder when due

The maintenance in-charge is reminded as the date comes near. The reminder goes to the person named for it.

The due list

Sensors due for verification or replacement are listed in one place, so the month’s work can be planned.

Reference instrument

Which instrument each sensor is compared against is agreed with your team and written into the schedule.

Starting from a parallel run

Before a dashboard is built, the new sensor runs beside your own gauge for several shifts and the two are compared. That first comparison sets the baseline. If the two disagree, the sensor is moved or changed. Later checks follow the schedule agreed at that stage.

What stays with the client

  • Who carries out the comparison and with which reference instrument
  • How often each type of sensor is verified
  • Whether a certificate is needed for a customer or auditor
  • When a sensor is replaced and who buys it
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does the software calibrate the sensors?

No. It schedules the comparison and reminds the person responsible. The comparison itself is carried out by your team or the vendor.

Who receives the reminder?

The person named for it, usually the maintenance in-charge. Routing is set during implementation.

Can calibration reminders be seen on the device health view?

Yes. Sensors due for calibration are listed with the devices that need attention, including those that have stopped reporting or have a low battery.

Do you promise an accuracy figure?

No. What a device reads depends on where it is mounted and when it was last calibrated. That is settled on your site.
