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 recalibration 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 recalibrations, 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:
- Annual recalibrations with an internationally accepted traceable calibration certificate
- Free shipments to and from the Beamex laboratory in Atlanta, Georgia
- Free repairs, even with accidental damage
- Replacement of wearable parts
- Annual email notification of due calibration
- Applicable updates of firmware, device description files
- Help-desk services
- Priority service
See how the Beamex Care Plan benefits your team
The Beamex Care Plan is a fixed, 3-year contract. Once the initial plan is purchased, there are no additional purchase orders to be sent through your purchasing department. This allows for easy transactions and no unnecessary admin costs or resources used.
The 3-year Care Plan option offers fixed pricing that can be paid in full or in 3 annual payments.
NIST Calibration Certificates are included with every calibration performed at the Beamex calibration facility in Marietta, GA. The cost of your annual recalibration is included and we will send an email once a year to remind you of due calibrations.
Firmware updates are included and installed automatically when you send your calibrator in for recalibration. With this service, you can be assured that your unit(s) always have the latest benefits developed by our R&D department, free of charge.
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 annual 30-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 lab in Marietta, GA is covered when you need to send in your equipment for recalibration 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.
Beamex makes shipping easy. Once you become a Care Plan customer, you will receive the link to our shipping returns portal which allows you to easily schedule a free UPS pickup to be delivered to our lab.

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 annual recalibrations necessary?
All instruments, including calibrators, need to be calibrated regularly. Keeping your calibrator up to date with regular recalibration 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 annual recalibrations and make it easy to return the unit to service.
