If you run a busy UK MOT station, your emissions analyser is one of the most relied-on pieces of equipment in your workshop.
Whether you’re running a Bosch, Brainbee, Hofmann Megaplan, Boston, or Crypton / Continental unit, it plays a key role in keeping your MOT lane moving and your bookings on track.
But when it comes to emissions analyser calibration, there’s an important detail that often gets overlooked…
Not all calibration visits may include the same level of inspection and preventative checks.
A thorough emissions analyser calibration should include checks of the main components that affect the analyser’s performance between visits, helping ensure the machine remains accurate, stable, and reliable in day-to-day use.
In reality, the level of detail included during a calibration visit can vary quite a bit. Some approaches focus primarily on verifying readings, while others take a more comprehensive view of the equipment’s condition.
At ATECH, we treat calibration as a complete process – not just a single check.
Your emissions analyser is constantly exposed to exhaust gases, moisture, and particulates. Over time, this naturally affects internal components.
As part of a thorough calibration approach, attention should be given to areas such as:
Monitoring these components helps maintain:
