Overview
What is Incubator Calibration?
Incubators hold living cultures and conditioning samples at tight temperature bands — water-quality microbiology, mycological plywood testing and curing-adjacent conditioning all fail quietly when an incubator drifts or develops gradients between shelves.
Global Lab maps incubator chambers with traceable sensor arrays at shelf positions, measures set-point accuracy, spatial uniformity and temporal stability through door-opening recovery, and certifies the usable working volume with uncertainties — lab or on-site.

NPLI-Traceable References
Reference standards with unbroken traceability to national standards.
ISO/IEC 17025 System
Calibration under our accredited laboratory quality system.
Shelf-Level Mapping
Gradients between shelves quantified, not assumed away.
Fast Turnaround
Certificates in 2–4 days — minimal instrument downtime.
As-Found / As-Left Data
Both states recorded, so drift since last calibration is visible.
Digital Certificates
Calibration certificates via the Autovity QLMS dashboard.
Test Procedure
How the Incubator Calibration is Conducted
- 1
Sensor Array Placement
Traceable sensors are placed at shelf positions per the mapping plan. - 2
Stabilisation & Logging
The chamber stabilises at set-point and all positions are logged over the mapping period. - 3
Recovery Check
Temperature recovery after a standard door opening is measured where requested. - 4
Evaluation
Set-point error, uniformity and stability are evaluated with uncertainty. - 5
Certification
Mapping results and verdicts are issued via Autovity QLMS.
