Field Instruments FAQ
Q: How often should field instruments be calibrated?
A: Field instruments should be calibrated at least annually, or more frequently if used in harsh conditions or for critical measurements. We recommend following manufacturer guidelines and industry standards for your specific application. Our instruments typically maintain calibration for 12-18 months under normal operating conditions.
Q: What maintenance do field instruments require?
A: Regular maintenance for field instruments includes cleaning sensors after each use, checking battery contacts, inspecting for physical damage, and verifying accuracy with known standards. Store instruments in protective cases when not in use, and avoid extreme temperatures during storage. Our instruments require minimal maintenance due to their rugged design.
Q: Can field instruments connect to mobile devices?
A: Most modern field instruments feature wireless connectivity options. Our FI-2000 and FI-3000 models support Bluetooth 5.0 for real-time data transfer to smartphones or tablets. The companion app allows for data visualization, analysis, and report generation directly in the field. Some models also support WiFi connectivity for cloud-based data storage.
