CELEBRATING 35 YEARS of temperature calibration solutions
Isotech is celebrating 35 years of successfully providing solutions for temperature measurement and calibration
I
sotech was founded by John Tavener and started by providing thermocouple
reference units used in the power industry. As Tavener established the laboratory, he found a lack of suitable temperature calibration equipment. What did exist came from separate suppliers, one for an instrument, one for resistance thermometers and another for heat sources. Unable to find appropriate equipment Tavener designed and built his own solutions, and the dream of providing clients with a full range of calibration solutions was born. Tavener said: “Our original aim was to produce calibration equipment specifically to calibrate temperature sensors irrespective of the technology we needed. Thirty five years ago this was novel! “We cooperated with others who had good ideas or products, I think particularly of engineers and innovators such as Jim Riddett, Sid Race, Jim Cross and more recently Paul Bramley, Georges Bonnier and Rod White. Now 35 years after Isotech started we offer a complete range of calibration equipment and our products are used in 80% of the worlds’ National Laboratories.” Isotech is located in Southport, North
West England, and the company is proud to be manufacturing in the UK. It has recently been recognised by UK Trade & Investment as an ‘Export Champion’. The company has delivered and
installed many complete laboratories across Europe, Asia and the Americas.
HOW ISOTECH CAN HELP YOU Temperature Measurement If you need to measure temperature accurately Isotech can help. The Isotech microK Thermometry Bridge is used by the world’s leading laboratories with measurement uncertainties to less than a thousandth of a degree, 0.001˚C. The milliK Precision Thermometer has greater accuracy than other benchtop thermometers.
Temperature Calibration Isotech has solutions for all calibration needs, from Primary Laboratories maintaining National Standards to the

needs of field engineers calibrating industrial sensors on site. Isotech is truly ‘The Source for Calibration Professionals’. If you need an ITS-90 Fixed Point
Cell, a Stirred Liquid Calibration Bath, Metrology Furnace, Blackbody Calibrator or a hand held calibrator for a Type K thermocouple then Isotech has a solution.
Temperature Calibration Service Isotech not only provides products but also offers calibration services in the company’s ISO 17025 accredited laboratory, Northern Temperature Primary Laboratory (NTPL) which has the smallest of uncertainties, see UKAS Schedule.
Thermocouple Referencing Isotech has a world leading range of thermocouple referencing equipment. From laboratory models for standard thermocouples through to large scale installations used in power stations, aeronautical, industrial and research institutes.
in the UK and in other countries around the world. Additionally the training is regularly delivered on-site.
MADE IN BRITAIN Isotech products are designed and manufactured in Britain – you can call Isotech specialists directly and if you need service or support you are able to speak directly with experienced specialists. On site demonstrations can also be arranged.
GET IN TOUCH If you need a solution for temperature measurement or calibration – then get in touch and learn how we can help. Throughout the year there will be a number of special promotions, yet further innovation and special celebrations to mark this 35th Anniversary. Keep checking the Isotech website to learn how you can benefit from Isotech’s anniversary.
