All test equipment will require a METER card before it will be accepted at the calibration or repair lab. 9. Remember to pickup the equipment when the work has been completed. Do your part in the coordinating of requests, deliveries, provision of requested materials, follow-up, and pickup. If you do your part and complete paper work accurately, you should have the excellent test equipment calibration package and service you need to keep your systems and equipment optimum condition. Calibration Status Indication The Navy calibration program has a series in of distinctive labels and tags for indicating the calibration or serviceability status of all Navy test and measuring equipment. All calibration personnel and equipment users should be familiar with each label and tag and its meaning. Labels of different nomenclature, color combinations, and shapes have been designed to help users identify the calibration status. These labels and tags are used by all participants in the Navy METCAL program and must be affixed to all Navy standards and test and measuring equipment. NAVAIR 17-35MTL-1, Metrology Requirements List (METRL), lists Navy calibration procedures and intervals for all standards and test and measuring equipment. Only equipment actually used for quantitative measurements requires calibration.
