    The document provides a calibration procedure for height gauges at Memorial University Technical Services. It lists the required equipment including a granite plate and master gauge block set. It specifies that all standards and equipment must have a valid calibration certificate. The procedure involves cleaning surfaces, zeroing the gauge, taking measurements at various heights near the gauge's limits, and inspecting components. Measurements are recorded and must be within +/- 0.002 inches or 0.05mm of the gauge block heights to pass calibration.

    Height Gauge Calibration Procedure

    Memorial University Technical Services


    Document No.: TS-0050
    Revision: 3

    1.0 Standards and Equipment


    The following equipment is required:

    Granite Plate
    Master Gauge Block Set

    NOTE: Standards and equipment used must have a valid calibration certificate

    2.0 Calibration Procedure


    “TS-0072 Height Gauge Calibration Record Sheet” must be used

    Clean the Height Gauge’s measuring surfaces, the granite plate, and the gauge blocks
    to be used

    NOTE: 1. Digital Height Gauges only need one scale to be verified

    2. Zero the Height Gauge at the start and adjust as required by the
    manufacturers’ specifications. If you cannot zero it then mark it as a fail

    3. When testing the Height Gauge, one of the points must be near
    the lower limit that the instrument can measure, another somewhere in
    the middle, and the third near the upper limit

    4. Use a conversion factor of 25.40 mm/in to convert gauge block lengths


    to Metric from Imperial

    Step 1:
    Measure the ambient temperature and record it. If the temperature is <18oC or >24oC,
    see the Division Manager for further instructions.

    Step 2:
    Test Characteristic: Inspect the anvils and the Sliding Scale

    Test Method: Visual, Touch

    Acceptable Limit: No damage, nicks, or burrs. Should have straight and parallel
    faces, smooth movement over the whole length with no free
    play

    Step 3:
    Test Characteristic: Measuring Scale

    Test Method: Using gauge blocks, measure and record 5 different heights,
    stack and wring blocks as necessary. Use the inspection grade
    granite plate

    Acceptable Limit: +/- 0.002" or 0.05mm

    Step 4:
    Test Characteristic: Anvils

    Test Method: If different anvils are available for the height gauge, make and
    record one measurement for each

    Acceptable Limit: +/- 0.002" or 0.05mm
