SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 12, 2013 – Agilent Technologies has announced the opening of a new calibration center in Phoenix, Ariz. Now owners of Agilent electronic measurement instruments in the area can receive true local OEM calibrations, with measurements performed using OEM procedures for every warranted specification. Keeping instruments calibrated is important to ensure accurate measurements.

“We were excited by the outpouring of customer interest in local Agilent calibration service at our grand opening event,” said Eric Taylor, vice president of Agilent’s Service Solutions for the Americas. “We are committed to expanding our local calibration presence.”

The opening of the Phoenix Local Calibration Center comes only two months after the opening of the Greater Toronto Area Local Calibration Center.
