— WHAT IS MICROPIPETTE CALIBRATION —
Think of a quality lab that relies on a micropipette for daily measurements. If it has drifted even slightly from its true value, every reading becomes unreliable — leading to defective products, failed audits, or safety risks. Regular calibration is the only way to confirm your instrument is telling the truth.
Micropipette calibration means comparing its readings against a NABL-traceable certified reference standard at multiple test points, recording the deviations, adjusting where possible, and issuing an NABL certificate — accepted by ISO 9001, IATF 16949, and all quality auditors.
Compare readings against a NABL-traceable reference standard across the full measurement range.
Adjust or document deviations so your instrument reads within accepted tolerance.
Issue a NABL-accredited certificate (CC-2480) with full traceability documentation.
— INSTRUMENTS COVERED —
Single-Channel / Multichannel · 0.1 µL–5 mL · All Makes · ISO 8655 Gravimetric · NABL CC-2480
Single-channel micropipettes for precise µL volume liquid handling.
Multichannel micropipettes for parallel liquid dispensing in microplates.
Repeat dispenser micropipettes for repetitive dispensing of the same volume.
Fixed-volume micropipettes with non-adjustable volume for error-free dispensing.
Auto-dispensing micropipettes with motorized drive for consistent dispensing.
Electronic micropipettes with digital display and motorized aspiration.
— OUR PROCESS —
Micropipette and ultra-pure water (ISO 3696 Grade 1) stabilised at 20 ± 0.5°C in temperature-controlled lab. Pipette tip type (manufacturer recommended) confirmed before calibration.
Pipette inspected for tip seal, shaft condition, volume display, and piston action. Leakage check performed before gravimetric measurement.
Water dispensed into tared weighing vessel on NABL semi-micro balance. Minimum 10 repeat dispenses at each of 3 volume setpoints per ISO 8655. Z-factor applied for temperature correction.
Mean dispensed volume, systematic error (bias %), and coefficient of variation (CV%) computed for each setpoint. Results compared to ISO 8655-2 maximum permissible error for the nominal volume.
Expanded uncertainty (k=2) calculated per GUM. Contributions: balance standard uncertainty, evaporation correction, Z-factor uncertainty, thermal stability, and repeatability.
NABL CC-2480 certificate reporting nominal volume, mean dispensed volume, systematic error %, CV%, uncertainty (k=2), ISO 8655 compliance status, and calibration temperature.

Prism holds NABL CC-2480 under ISO/IEC 17025:2017. Micropipette certificates accepted by pharma GMP (21 CFR Part 211 / EU GMP), ISO 15189, ISO 9001, and all biomedical and diagnostic laboratory accreditation bodies.
— NON-NABL CALIBRATION —
For routine maintenance, bulk calibration, or internal QC checks where a full NABL certificate is not mandatory — Prism offers cost-effective non-NABL calibration using the same NABL-traceable reference standards and trained engineers.
All non-NABL work uses NABL-certified reference standards — readings are still reliable and defensible.
Without full NABL documentation, instruments return faster — ideal for urgent production schedules.
Non-NABL calibration costs less — practical for large batches or routine periodic checks.
Available at your facility or at our Vatva lab — same quality, more flexibility.
