Compliant GMP calibration with Heartbeat Verification

A baseline of values is established during the original factory calibration and permanently stored both in the non-volatile, secure memory of the flowmeter, and on file at the factory. When Heartbeat Verification is performed on site the test data is compared with this baseline to detect any electronic component drift or mechanical deterioration of the instrument. Critical electronic circuits are implemented redundantly allowing the detection of hardware failures.

• In comparison to wet calibration, integrated verification functions in measuring devices such as Promass 100/300/500 Coriolis flowmeters lead to a time saving of at least 80% and extended calibration cycles.

Less downtime for instrument calibration and fewer unexpected shutdowns will improve operations efficiency and operational excellence. Reliable data, and certified proof that the measured process value is correct, reduce the risk for product quality issues and therefore supports the goal of reaching highest possible patient safety.

• Micropilot FMR63B can extend calibration cycles by means of Heartbeat Technology with Radar Accuracy Index, which allows the radar accuracy of the device to be verifies without process interruption.

• The iTHERM TM371 represents the world’s first RTD sensor capable of fully automated in-situ self-calibration. The patented innovation has been extensively tested and verified in lab and field trials. Read more in our white paper.
