Imagine you have a pressure gauge, and you want to make sure it measures pressure readings correctly. A calibration certificate is like a report card for instruments that are used for measurement, like thermometers, scales, or rulers. It tells you if these instruments are working properly and measuring things accurately according to requirements.
A calibration certificate is a record of the results of calibration performed on a specific Instrument or measuring equipment. This is also known as a ‘certificate of calibration’ or simply a ‘calibration report’.
Some of the Important Uses of a Calibration Certificate are the following:
Verification of Accuracy
Evidence of Compliance with Standards
Metrological Traceability
Quality Assurance
Decision-Making
Risk Mitigation
Customer Confidence
Equipment Maintenance
Audits and Accreditation
Legal and Regulatory Compliance
