Warranted procedures for MET/CAL® software

Warranted procedures for MET/CAL® Plus

MET/CAL® warranted procedures are optional calibration procedures for MET/CAL® Plus Calibration Software. This class of MET/CAL® and 5500/CAL procedures, produced by Fluke Precision Measurement engineers, is designed to satisfy your need for ready-to-go, fully tested procedures.

MET/CAL procedures are warranted by Fluke Corporation to produce valid calibrations on the intended unit under test (UUT) for the specified model and revision level. The warranty assures you of Fluke's full support for the original, unaltered procedure.

Once installed and operational, these procedures automate the calibration process under MET/CAL control as described in the UUT's service documentation. In many cases, multiple procedures are provided for each model to provide "verification only" and "adjustment" procedures. Multiple procedures also may be provided which give you a choice of different standards to perform the calibration.
