Manufacturers rely on the CleanoSpector because it gives quick, objective readings of surface cleanliness in RFUs (Relative Fluorescence Units). We are seeing increasing incidences of an RFU number being specified as an inspection or acceptance demand on drawings and specifications. It is an important part of quality control.
If the CleanoSpector drifts out of tolerance, the knock-on effects are familiar: questionable QC results, rework, stalled production, and occasionally an unhappy customer. In short, calibration is part of process control, not an optional add-on. The CleanoSpector is readily and quickly calibrated by you using SITA Calibration Standards.
A capability that saves time and disruption
We now carry out CleanoSpector service inspection and adjustment in our Kidlington, Oxfordshire facility. We recommend that you get your CleanoSpector serviced by us every 1-2 years. Our team has been trained and certified by SITA, so your device stays within the OEM’s performance window and never leaves the country. That solves three headaches in one:
- Turnaround is faster because there’s no international shipping in the way
- Production stays on track because you don’t lose an instrument for an extended period
- You get expert handling and complete traceability of calibration data
What the service involves
The service is more than a quick check. Each device is inspected, cleaned, and verified using SITA Calibration Standards. These standards give a controlled reference point so we can measure how closely your instrument’s RFU readings match the expected values. The process includes:
- Evaluation of the current device status
- Complete functional test
- Checking and, if necessary, installing firmware and hardware updates
- Calibration including calibration certificate
- Detailed service report
- Test sticker on the device
Once completed, you receive a documented calibration certificate that supports your internal quality audits, customer requirements, or regulatory needs.
What this means to you
The practical value is straightforward. Convenience. Confidence. Added value.
Accessories and training
In between service by us, make sure you keep your CleanoSpector operating optimally by using SITA CleanoSpector Accessories.
Why not pair calibration with refresher training for your operators? A short session on measurement technique tends to reduce variation and make QC decisions easier. Get in touch.
