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.
