Pipette calibration services for Manchester and the North West
AccuCal provides specialist pipette calibration to laboratories across Manchester and the North West of England. Our engineers serve the region’s research institutes, biotechs, hospital laboratories, university departments, and contract research organisations with reliable ISO 8655-compliant calibration — covering Manchester city, Greater Manchester, and the wider Cheshire / Merseyside life sciences corridor.
Onsite pipette calibration in Manchester
Onsite calibration is what most of our Manchester customers choose. Our engineer visits your laboratory with all the equipment needed and calibrates your pipettes on the bench, usually completing the work within a single visit. This avoids downtime, removes the risk of damage in transit, and means your pipettes are calibrated under the conditions they actually work in.
Postal calibration is also available with a standard turnaround of 3 to 5 working days for batches of up to 15 pipettes.

What our Manchester pipette calibration includes
Each pipette receives a multi-point gravimetric test at the required volumes, performed on calibrated analytical balances in a controlled environment. Calibration can be carried out against manufacturer specifications, the ISO 8655 standard, or your own customer-defined tolerances. We measure both accuracy and precision and issue a full calibration certificate accepted by most laboratory quality systems.
Minor adjustments and seal replacements are carried out as part of the same visit. If a pipette is found out of specification, we will usually service and re-calibrate it on the spot to minimise lab downtime.
