Information on the calibration of newly purchased equipment and what it means to you.
Calibration and its certification comes in varying forms on new equipment and in this section, we will break it down into the three areas that we use to classify calibration state at the point of purchase.
Manufacturers Calibration Certificate
This is a calibration certificate offered by the manufacturer supplied with the tester. This is also known as an end-of-line certificate or manufacturer’s certificate. These certificates vary depending on the manufacturer and product. They will not have your company's name on them and don’t always show proven test results.
Where applicable we will include the following statement relating to the item/s on the products page under the heading *Important Calibration Information.
This instrument comes complete with the manufacturer's calibration certificate. Please be aware that these certificates are generic and may also be time-lapsed.
If you would prefer a personalised full traceable calibration certificate applied to the equipment before dispatch, then please select this option from the drop-down menu above, an additional calibration charge will apply.Manufacturers Certificate of Conformity
A manufacturer's certificate of conformity is not a calibration certificate. It is merely a statement that the equipment has been produced to operate within its intended application, it has no traceable certificate or constitutes any defined results for accuracy before leaving the manufacturing process.
Where applicable we will include the following statement relating to the item/s on the products page under the heading *Important Calibration Information.
This instrument comes with a ‘manufacturer's certificate of conformity’. It is important to understand that this does NOT constitute a ‘calibration certificate’. A certificate of conformity merely states that the equipment has been designed and produced to meet the requirements of its intended application.
Where calibration of an instrument is possible we will offer this as a separately purchasable item and may be selected from the drop-down box above. You will be sent a full traceable calibration certificate produced in our laboratory and applied with your details as required.Personalised traceable calibration certificate from isswww
This is a calibration certificate created by us at ISS. This certificate is fully traceable to national and international standards. The certificate will show your company's details, tester information, proven test results and the equipment used to carry out the test. Nearly 90% of all calibrations we do are done in-house in one of our many fully equipped laboratories. You can add this service to your order on the product page before you checkout.
Where applicable we will include the following statement relating to the item/s on the products page under the heading *Important Calibration Information.
We are on occasion able to offer FREE calibration on certain products at their point of sale (newly purchased equipment only) please look out for the following badge on the product's page to take advantage of this free offer.

Chauvin Arnoux CA8331 Qualistar Plus Power Analyser
Measure all the necessary voltage, current, and power parameters for full diagnosis of an electrical installation. Capture and record all the parameters, transients, alarms, and waveforms simultaneously.
Designed for inspection and maintenance teams in industrial or administrative buildings, the Qualistar can provide a snapshot of the main electrical network quality characteristics. Easy to handle and precise, these instruments also offer a large number of calculated values and several processing functions.
Designed to cover all 600 V CAT IV and 1000 V CAT III applications in compliance with the IEC 61010 standard, the Qualistar+ range is divided up according to the functions provided and the connections available:
- CA8331 & CA8333: 4 voltage inputs and 3 current inputs,t,
- CA8336 & CA8435: 5 voltage inputs and 4 current inputs.
The whole range benefits from a set of inserts and rings for customizing the colour-coding in each country. Equipped with IP67 connections to ensure water-proofing, the CA8435 is also compatible with all the existing Qualistar measuring accessories.
Key Features:
- Real-time display of waveforms (4 voltages and 4 currents)
- Half-period RMS measurements of voltages and currents
- Intuitive use
- Automatic recognition of the different types of current sensors
- Measurement of any type of installation: three-phase, Aron, etc.
- Integration of all the DC components
- Measurement, calculation, and display of harmonics up to the 50th order,
- Display of phasor diagram
- Measurement of P, Q, S, and D power values (total and per phase)
- Energy measurement (total and per phase)
- Calculation of the K Factor & FHL
- Calculation of distorting voltages and currents
- Calculation of the cos φ displacement power factor (DPF) and the power factor (PF)
- Inrush over up to 10 minutes
- Capture of hundreds of transients lasting several tens of µs
- Calculation of Pst & Plt flicker values
- Unbalance calculation (current and voltage)
- Monitoring of the electrical network with the setting of alarms
- IEC 61000-4-30 Class B
- Back-up and recording of screenshots (image and data)
- Recording and export on PC
- Software for data recovery and real-time communication with a PC
Connections:
The Qualistar models are ideal for applications on all types of electrical networks, from the simplest to the most complex:
- Single-phase, split-phase, and three-phase with or without neutral
- All types of 2, 3, 4, and 5-wire electrical networks
- 2-wattmeters method
- ARON
- 2 ½ elements
