Maintain and protect your equipment with the Beamex Care Plan
All calibrators will become unreliable if they aren’t recalibrated periodically. They also need regular calibration and maintenance to stay reliable and accurate.
Any unexpected damages can become expensive and take a long time to repair if you don’t have a strategy in place.
The Beamex Care Plan is a contract that covers annual calibrations, repairs, and much more. It was specifically designed to help our customers maintain the accuracy and reliability of their Beamex measurement equipment throughout its lifetime.
Beamex Care Plan includes:
- Regular calibrations with an accredited traceable calibration certificate
- Flexible calibration intervals – 3, 6, 12 or 24 months
- Free shipments to and from the Beamex calibration laboratory
- Free repairs, even with accidental damage
- Replacement of wearable parts
- Email notification of due calibration
- Applicable updates of firmware, device description files
- Help-desk services
- Priority service
Calibration intervals that match your quality system
Beamex Care Plans are now available with 3, 6, 12 and 24-month calibration intervals, in addition to the established annual plan.
You can align the interval with your own quality system and with how critical each instrument is, rather than adapting your processes to a fixed schedule.
Available across the MC6, MC6-Ex, MC6-T and EXT/EXT-IS product families.

Accidents happen. With the Beamex Care Plan, these accidents are covered and we will even replace your unit if it is found BER (beyond economical repair). Repairs and replacement of wearable parts (like batteries and kickstands) are also covered, free of charge for Care Plan customers.
Our 45-day calibration due reminders will allow you to schedule your calibrations around any potential future outages.
Priority support is given to Care Plan customers, giving you a specific outlet for any inquiries you may have regarding your equipment. Beamex help-desk services are available by phone and email for technical support.
Shipping to and from the Beamex laboratory is covered when you need to send in your equipment for calibration or repair. This allows your budget to remain fixed on a long-term basis as there are no hidden/extra costs associated with the maintenance of your covered calibrators.

Sustainable by design
Sustainability is a core component of the Beamex design philosophy and we see digitalization as a critical enabler for reaching sustainability targets in our customers’ industries.
Why are regular calibrations necessary?
All instruments, including calibrators, need to be calibrated regularly. Keeping your calibrator up to date with regular calibration is important to maintain accuracy and for compliance.
A traceable, accredited calibration certificate is needed if your plant operates according to a quality control system, such as the ISO 9000 quality control system, and/or if you must provide proof of measurements and traceability to your customers. In critical applications, the costs of an out-of-tolerance situation can be extremely high, and therefore it is safer to calibrate your equipment more often.
Beamex service plans include regular calibrations and make it easy to return the unit to service.
