Dial Gauge

1.0 Scope
This procedure provides guidelines for calibration of Dial Gauge.

2.0 Standard Equipment

2.1 Gauge Block Set with a valid certificate of calibration either traceable to international or
national standard laboratory in accordance with an industrial code or a regulation shall
be used as a standard for calibration.
2.2 The standards for calibration shall be kept under controlled environmental conditions e.g.
dust free environment and Lab temperature 22°C ± 3°C.Lab Humidity 60%RH ±20% RH.

3.0 Preliminary Operations

3.1 The details of Dial Gauge received for calibration shall be entered in the Calibration Job
Form (Form: Call/001).
3.2 It shall be ensured that the Dial Gauge measuring surfaces are free of dirt, nicks and
burrs. The Dial Gauge can be adjusted through its entire range with no signs of sticking
or binding.
3.3 The Dial Gauge shall be inspected and marked () in relevant block of equipment’s
primary inspection section of Calibration Data Sheet (Form: Call/013).

Dial Gauge

4.1 The Dial Gauge to be calibrated shall be maintained at same place of standard (Gauge
Block Set) for 24 hours minimum.
4.2 The Dial Gauge shall be clamped with magnetic stand and positioned on the surface
plate.
4.3 The zero of the Dial Gauge shall be adjusted with surface plate reference.
4.4 The appropriate size gauge blocks shall be placed on surface plate in a horizontal
position with the bottom working surface of the Gauge Block making contact with
Surface Plate.
4.5 The Dial Gauge shall be checked with appropriate size Gauge Block or blocks at
approximately 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% of full ranges.
4.6 The reading of Dial Gauge shall be recorded in observed value column against the
standard reading in set value column of Calibration Data Sheet (Form: Call/013).
4.7 The Dial Gauge shall be adjusted to zero and equipment shall be secured.
4.8 The Dial Gauge shall be cleaned and lubricated if required.
4.9 Calibration Certificate (Form: Call/002) shall be issued for calibrated Dial Gauge as per
Calibration Data Sheet record (Form: Call/013).
4.10 A Calibration Sticker (Form: Call/003) containing following information shall be affixed
on the calibrated Dial Gauge.
a) Item code
b) Calibrated on
c) Next calibration date
