Deckma has, over a period of time, observed numerous Calibration Certificates being issued by unauthorised vendors/non-authorised vendors for their Deckma 15PPM Oil in Water Monitors. Due to such Certificates from unauthorised vendors, the vessels then undergo costly delays when the surveyors find the certificates to be invalid, in addition to possible damage the Measuring Cells of the 15 PPM monitors. These steps have recently been initiated by Deckma Hamburg GmbH starting from 22nd Dec 2023:
Features of new certificate:
QR code on the certificate to check its validity and authenticity.
Measuring Cell number is present on the certificate.
Deckma Calibration fluid batch number is present on the calibration certificate.
Name of the technician is also present on the certificate.
Calibration check date along with IMO number is present on the certificate.
Why this new certificate matters ?
Reliability: Deckma has introduced a QR code in their calibration of 15ppm certificate - traceable directly to their official portal.
Survey:The new format of the calibration certificate helps any surveyor to scan the QR code on the certificate and get a copy of the Maker's Authorised Calibration Certificate from Deckma's portal, and can verify the validity of the certificate. It also saves time of both the vessel, management and the surveyor.
Economical: This change in the certificate helps vessel owners/managers save a lot money by not getting their Deckma 15 PPM unit calibrated through unauthorised agents and helps in maintaining records.
Authenticity & Validity: This is in view showing the validity (including the expiry) and authenticity of the certificate. It issuing date and expiry date of calibration is mentioned on the certificate for reference during survey.
