In technische sectoren worden de termen kalibreren, justeren en ijken regelmatig door elkaar gebruikt. Nochtans hebben ze allemaal een andere betekenis. Wij leggen de verschillen uit.<\/h4>\n

Kalibreren<\/h2>\n

Kalibreren is het vergelijken<\/strong> van een meettoestel met een referentiestandaard<\/strong>, zonder er iets aan te veranderen. Je stelt vast hoe groot de afwijking is<\/strong> tussen de aanwijzing van het toestel en de werkelijke waarde.<\/p>\n

Het resultaat is een kalibratiecertificaat of kalibratierapport met de gemeten afwijkingen.<\/p>\n

Justeren<\/h2>\n

Justeren is het bijstellen of corrigeren<\/strong> van een meettoestel zodat het zo nauwkeurig mogelijk meet<\/strong>. Dit gebeurt meestal na een kalibratie, wanneer blijkt dat de afwijking te groot is. Je past het toestel mechanisch, elektrisch of via software aan.<\/p>\n

De logische volgorde is dus:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Kalibreren om de afwijking vast te stellen<\/li>\n
  2. Eventueel justeren om deze afwijking te corrigeren<\/li>\n
  3. Opnieuw kalibreren om het resultaat te controleren<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    IJken<\/h2>\n

    IJken is een officieel, wettelijk geregeld proces waarbij een bevoegde instantie (in Belgi\u00eb het FOD Economie \u2013 dienst Metrologie) vaststelt of een meettoestel voldoet aan de wettelijke eisen. Als het toestel goedgekeurd wordt, krijgt het een ijkmerk (stempel of zegel).<\/p>\n

    IJken is verplicht voor toestellen die gebruikt worden bij commerci\u00eble transacties of waarbij de consument beschermd moet worden, zoals:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • weegschalen in winkels<\/li>\n
    • benzinepompen<\/li>\n
    • taximeters<\/li>\n
    • watermeters, gasmeters, elektriciteitsmeters<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      De verschillen in \u00e9\u00e9n oogopslag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
      \u00a0<\/strong><\/td>\nKalibreren<\/strong><\/td>\nJusteren<\/strong><\/td>\nIJken<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      Wat?<\/strong><\/td>\nAfwijking vaststellen<\/td>\nAfwijking corrigeren<\/td>\nWettelijke goedkeuring<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      Ingrijpen?<\/strong><\/td>\nNee<\/td>\nJa<\/td>\nNee<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      Door wie?<\/strong><\/td>\nIedereen<\/td>\nTechnicus\/fabrikant<\/td>\nErkende instantie<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      Resultaat?<\/strong><\/td>\nKalibratiecertificaat<\/td>\nNauwkeuriger toestel<\/td>\nIJkmerk\/zegel<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      Verplicht?<\/strong><\/td>\nVaak intern vereist<\/td>\nIndien nodig<\/td>\nWettelijk verplicht<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

       <\/p>\n

      Kortom: je kalibreert<\/strong> om te weten hoe goed een toestel meet, je justeert<\/strong> om het beter te laten meten en je ijkt<\/strong> om wettelijk te bewijzen dat het aan de normen voldoet.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
