In oil refineries or mining sites, calibration must comply with ATEX/IECEx standards:

  • Safety Checklist:

    • Use intrinsically safe calibrators (Energy < 20 µJ).

    • Perform gas group compatibility checks (e.g., Group IIC for hydrogen).

    • Validate pressure seals at 1.5x operating range.

  • Case Study: A LNG facility passed Zone 0 audits with ATEX-certified calibration kits.
