Each calibration is accompanied by a certificate that confirms compliance with the rigorous standards set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Serving Belleville, IL
Belleville has been the St. Clair County seat since 1814 and is the largest municipality in the county, with the county clerk, circuit clerk and treasurer all on the Public Square. No interstate and no US highway enters the city limits. Seven state routes do, IL 13, IL 15, IL 157, IL 158, IL 159, IL 161 and IL 177, converging on the Public Square, along with Norfolk Southern and Canadian National track and a MetroLink station on Scheel Street. Memorial Hospital on Memorial Drive is the only hospital inside the city, a 300-bed acute care facility rated five stars by CMS, with imaging, clinical laboratory and surgical services. The city runs its wastewater division on Environmental Drive around the clock, permitted at 12.4 million gallons a day with 24 million gallons of maximum excess flow capacity, fed by nearly 300 miles of collection line and 50 lift stations, while drinking water comes from Illinois American Water rather than the city. Kettler Casting has run a gray and ductile iron foundry on Old Freeburg Road since 1979 with 46 employees across 36,000 square feet, and Empire Comfort Systems has built gas heating appliances in Belleville since a sheet metal shop opened here in 1911. Tra-Cal supports these operations with ANAB-accredited ISO/IEC 17025:2017 calibration of test, measurement, and laboratory equipment.
Because Belleville sits outside our Mid-Atlantic pickup radius, we serve St. Clair County through two intake paths: prepaid ship-in calibration with a typical five-business-day turnaround, and onsite calibration appointments at your facility. Each calibration is performed against documented procedures, traced through NIST, and accompanied by an audit-ready certificate that supports AS9100, ISO 13485, ISO 9001, and FDA 21 CFR Part 820 quality systems.
