What goes on each line
Give each unit its own line. Record the asset ID, manufacturer, model and serial number as marked. Add the measurement range and unit, the points your process uses and any tolerance your quality team has specified. If a marking is unreadable, say so.
Identify anything that has to travel or be checked with it, such as a probe, lead, detachable head or display. Mark the items that must stay at the plant and give the plant PIN. Put your required return date and certificate instructions at the top of the list.
- Asset identity
- DC-14 · Digital caliper
- Measurement range
- 0–150 mm
- Resolution
- 0.01 mm
- Working points
- 12 mm, 48 mm · Outside jaws
Example only. Use your instrument's range, functions and required points. The display step does not define the error your process permits.
A worked three-instrument list
These example entries illustrate the level of detail. For your own list, replace the sample IDs and add the actual model and serial numbers from the labels.
PG-07 — dial pressure gauge, 0–10 bar. Used at 4 and 6 bar on a compressed-air line. The maintenance team can remove it on Friday. Thread size still to be confirmed.
DC-14 — digital caliper, 0–150 mm. Used for outside measurements around 25 and 80 mm. Can travel in its case. Please quote for the two requested points and advise on any further checks.
TL-03 — temperature logger with detachable probe P-03. Used from 2 to 8 °C. The display and this probe are used together. Both can travel after the current recording run.
Record the range, resolution and test points separately
Take a digital caliper marked 0–150 mm that displays in steps of 0.01 mm. Enter 0–150 mm as its range and 0.01 mm as its resolution. If an inspector uses the outside jaws on 12 mm pins and 48 mm bushes, list 12 mm and 48 mm as requested points and identify the outside jaws. The display step tells RTS how finely you can read the caliper. It does not tell us the error your drawing allows.
If several benches at IMT Kharkhoda share that caliper, check the points with each inspector. One bench may also use the depth rod. Identify that function against its own working dimension before asking for a price.
What to put on a calibration purchase order
Put the RTS quotation reference and the revision of your instrument list on the order. For each item, agree the functions and points covered. If purchasing needs a pass/fail statement, include the acceptance limits, their source and the agreed decision rule. Name the person who can authorise an adjustment or extra work if an instrument arrives damaged or fails an initial check.
For a torque wrench borrowed by an IMT Bawal unit, the three destinations can differ. The buyer receives the invoice, the tool crib signs for the returned wrench, and the quality engineer receives the certificate. Give the return plot and gate, the tool tag and the reporting contact on the same order so stores can close the loan.
Sending the list to RTS
For a short list, paste the lines into the quotation form. For a larger fleet, email your spreadsheet to the address on our contact page. Include the name of the person who can answer a range or access question.
