    How to Calibrate a Defibrilator

    How Are Defibrillators Calibrated?

    When a cardiac emergency occurs, a defibrillator must perform exactly as intended. These life-saving devices are designed to deliver a controlled electrical shock that can help restore a normal heart rhythm. Because patient safety depends on accurate performance, regular calibration and testing are essential parts of maintaining defibrillator reliability.

    Healthcare facilities, emergency response organizations, and medical equipment providers rely on routine calibration to verify that their defibrillators continue to operate within manufacturer specifications. At Transcat, our ISO-accredited calibration laboratories provide calibration services for a wide range of medical equipment, including defibrillators, helping ensure these critical devices remain ready for use when needed most.

    Why Does Defibrillator Calibration Matter?

    Defibrillators are used in some of the most time-sensitive medical situations. An inaccurate shock output, malfunctioning display,

  4. Case Study: How Transcat Biomed Supports the Plasma Supply Chain

    Case Study: How Transcat Biomed Supports the Plasma Supply Chain

    How Transcat Biomed Supports the Plasma Supply Chain

    The demand for plasma-derived therapies continues to rise, creating new opportunities and challenges for plasma collection organizations. As healthcare providers treat more patients with immune deficiencies, bleeding disorders, neurological conditions, liver disease, and other chronic illnesses, the need for a reliable plasma supply has never been greater.

    Meeting that demand requires more than opening additional donation centers. Every new facility must be equipped to safely collect, freeze, store, monitor, and transport plasma while complying with strict regulatory requirements. For operators expanding their networks, the challenge isn't simply increasing capacity. It's ensuring every location can deliver consistent performance from day one.

    That's where the right combination of equipment qualification, calibration, environmental monitoring, and ongoing compliance support becomes critical.

  6. Pressure Calibrator Selection Guide: How to Choose the Right Calibrator for Your Application

    Pressure Calibrator Selection Guide: How to Choose the Right Calibrator for Your Application

    Why Choosing the Right Pressure Calibrator Matters 

    Pressure measurement plays a critical role across pharmaceutical manufacturing, cleanrooms, industrial processing, utilities, oil and gas, and laboratory environments. Whether verifying a pressure transmitter, validating cleanroom overpressure conditions, or troubleshooting a process loop, technicians need pressure calibration equipment that matches the accuracy, range, and workflow requirements of the application. 

    Many pressure calibration projects are temporary in nature. Shutdowns, calibration cycles, compliance audits, and plant turnarounds often create short-term demand for specialized pressure calibration equipment that may not justify a permanent purchase. 

    Renting this equipment provides technicians and engineers with the flexibility to choose the pressure calibrator best suited to each project. Some applications benefit from highly automated calibrators, while others require modular systems that support multiple measurement

    Temperature Validation and Mapping: How to Choose the Right Equipment for Your Application

    Why Temperature Validation Matters in Regulated Environments 

    Temperature-controlled equipment plays a critical role across pharmaceutical, biotechnology, healthcare, medical device production, and research environments. Whether storing temperature-sensitive materials in a refrigerator, protecting biological samples in a freezer, maintaining product stability in an environmental chamber, or validating sterilization cycles in an autoclave, organizations must demonstrate that equipment consistently performs within required specifications. Even minor temperature variations can affect product quality, compromise research outcomes, or create compliance concerns.  

    As a result, temperature validation has become an essential process for engineers, validation specialists, and quality teams responsible for maintaining reliable and compliant operations. Some organizations run validation studies with in-house engineers, preferring to manage the equipment, schedule, and raw data. Others prefer a
