Gas Detection Calibration
Gas Detection System Calibration Services
Cross Company’s Process Solutions group can provide comprehensive gas detection services, including specifying the best fixed or portable gas detector for your application as well as calibrating your gas detection devices. Using NIST-Traceable standards, we make sure your gas detectors are measuring as intended in order to protect your facility and your personnel.
When we provide gas detection calibration services, we also provide certificates of calibration (including as-found and as-left data for regulatory and audit purposes) as well as automated and manual bump testing with calibration services. To maximize safety and reliability, Cross can also offer service contracts encompassing calibration services.
Offering Solutions From Leading Brands
Experience With Gas Detection Systems
At Cross Company, we understand the importance of well-calibrated gas detection devices. If they’re reading incorrectly, there’s significant risk to both production processes and personnel safety. That’s why it’s so important to partner with an experienced gas detection system calibration company.
When you partner with Cross for gas monitor calibration, we provide on-site inspections and calibration, as well as detailed reporting on the status of your portable or fixed gas detection systems. As an industry-leading calibration company, we’re able to spot potential calibration issues and resolve them quickly and efficiently.

Expert Calibration Services for Gas Safety
Many hazardous gases are colorless, odorless, and undetectable by humans until it’s too late. At Cross, our specialized experts understand the unique importance of reliable gas detection safety systems and their proper calibration. That’s why we provide Precision NIST-Traceable Standards, Comprehensive Oxygen Monitoring, and Application-Specific Knowledge
Precision NIST-Traceable Standards
We use certified span gases to ensure your sensors are tuned to exact specifications, eliminating the “sensor drift” that occurs naturally over time
Comprehensive Oxygen Monitoring
We verify that O2 sensors are able to detect oxygen levels below critical safety thresholds, preventing the dangers of oxygen-deficient atmospheres
Application-Specific Knowledge
Whether you are in Wastewater Treatment, Chemical Processing, or Pulp and Paper, we understand the specific contaminants in your environment
Meeting Comprehensive Compliance and Safety Goals
OSHA and industry regulations require regular testing and compliance validation. At Cross Company, we take your safety program further by acting as a technical extension of your in-house maintenance team. This includes services like
Detailed Documentation & Audit Trails – We provide comprehensive certificates of calibration, including as-found and as-left data. This is vital for regulatory audits and for proving a culture of safety within your facility.
Proactive System Health – Our technicians don’t just calibrate, they can also inspect. With safety service contracts, we identify failing sensors, clogged filters, or improper installations that could lead to system failure between scheduled calibration visits.
Risk Mitigation – Improperly reading sensors can lead to flammable gas explosions or toxic exposure. By partnering with Cross for gas detection system calibration, you mitigate the risk of property destruction and, most importantly, protect the lives of your personnel.
Facility Safety And OSHA Compliance
According to an OSHA Safety and Health Information Bulletin from 2013, “Calibrating and Testing Direct-Reading Portable Gas Monitors“:
Instrument inaccuracy due to improper or irregular maintenance and calibration can lead to exposure to hazardous levels of toxic gases or to an oxygen-deficient atmosphere. This exposure can cause workers to suffer serious injuries or illness, and even death. Flammable gas explosions are often catastrophic, resulting in worker injuries and death, or destruction of property.
Testing gas detection systems to make sure they are properly calibrated is the only way to guarantee reliable and correct measurement of and warning against gas hazards. Calibration should be performed regularly, as environmental factors or simply routine wear and tear can cause the sensor to drift over time.
Why Cross Gas Detection Calibration?
With something as important as gas detection systems, it’s important to partner with the right gas monitor calibration company. Subpar calibration for gas detection systems can result in injury, extended plant downtime, or even worker death.
The potential repercussions of a lack of calibration underscore the necessity of a professional calibration company. At Cross, we’ve been performing expert gas detection system calibrations for decades. We’ve become an industry leader in calibration and precision measurement for a reason.
The team at Cross’s Process Solutions Group has literally hundreds of years of combined expertise in gas detection. Whether you need something that your employees can wear daily or a fixed system for your facility, we can help you specify it, get you up and running and keep your equipment measuring correctly. If you have a question or an issue, we’re positive we can help!
