Micron Calibration and Service Unit
The Calibration and Service unit is located in Poole, Dorset. It is equipped to service and repair the equipment supplied by Micron to its many customers and to third party customers. In addition, several calibration standards are maintained, enabling calibration of light meters, photometers and spectrophotometers, and infrared thermometers.
