Considering the design and age of the system, ABB is the only manufacturer still able to support it. In addition, ABB Instrumentation is an ISO 9001-2000 compliant Company. This Quality Management System, under which the Field Service Group operates, insures that the calibration methods and certificates issued are in strict compliance with all ISO requirements. The training and experience of the field service personnel, the accuracy and traceability to NIST of the test equipment used for calibration and the procedures used to perform these calibrations and adjustments are just several of the steps taken to document and insure this compliance. Field service calibrations are performed in accordance with the Original Equipment Manufacturer's recommendations defined in the OEM Instruction Manuals.
