Job Summary:

The Instrument Lab Technician is responsible for performing precise calibration, testing, and maintenance of a wide range of process and linear measuring instruments. This includes pressure, temperature, electrical, and dimensional equipment. The role ensures all instruments comply with industry standards, client specifications, and ISO/IEC 17025 requirements (if applicable). The technician will work in a controlled lab environment and may support on-site calibration activities as needed.

Key Responsibilities:

• Perform calibration and functional testing of instruments such as:
• Pressure instruments: Pressure Gauges, Pressure Transmitters, Pressure Switches.
• Temperature instruments: Temperature Gauges, Temperature Transmitters, RTDs.
• Flow & level instruments: Flow Meters (DP, ultrasonic, turbine), Level Transmitters/Switches.
• Dimensional tools: Micrometers, Vernier Calipers, Dial Gauges.
• Electrical instruments: Multimeters, Clamp Meters, Insulation Testers.
• Miscellaneous equipment: Chillers, Freezers, Weighing Scales, Timers.
• Operate calibration equipment, pressure controllers, temperature baths, signal generators,
  deadweight testers, etc.
• Record calibration data accurately and issue calibration certificates with traceability to
  national/international standards.
• Assist in the setup, maintenance, and verification of laboratory calibration systems and
  equipment.
• Interpret calibration procedures, datasheets, and manufacturer specifications.
• Maintain cleanliness, safety, and organization of the calibration lab environment.
