Introduction

Any instrument used in production, laboratories or any other place that can affect to the quality of
service or product should be calibrated before put in to service and at regular intervals to assure the
performance of the instrument. Proper calibration with traceability to national or international
standards provides valid measurements. Capability of an instrument can be determined by evaluating
the calibration report. Calibration of all the equipment in a facility can be very expensive and
therefore determination of require equipment is important.
In all management system standards emphasis has been given to instrument calibration and have
made requirements considering the importance.
This training programme provides understanding of calibration, selection of equipment, evaluation
of performance of instrument and to interpret calibration reports.
