Instrumentation calibration

Schermafbeelding 2026 07 28 091657

At MFS, we specialize in complete instrumentation calibration for gas turbine packages equipment, ensuring that vital sensors and instruments – such as pressure transmitters and switches, temperature devices, vibration sensors, and safety valves – operate reliably to support turbine protection and control.

Recommended Calibration Frequency

OEMs generally recommend annual calibration of package instrumentation
In practice, many users delay calibration for 5 to 10 years or more—putting engine protection at serious risk when instruments drift or fail to respond

Why It Matters

These instruments are the primary triggers for alarms, trip logic, and safety interlocks in your control system.
A faulty pressure transmitter, temperature switch, or vibration sensor can leave your turbine vulnerable, without warning or protection.
Over time, sensor drift or outright failure may go unnoticed until a critical event occurs

MFS Calibration Benefits

Reliable turbine protection: consistent, accurate instrument performance supports safety and helps to prevent unplanned trips
Increased control system integrity: accurate sensors ensure control logic and alarm thresholds function correctly
Regulatory compliance: full traceable calibration documentation supports ISO, regulatory, or OEM audit requirements
Reduced maintenance risk: regular calibration prevents drift-induced failures and operational surprises
