Calibration is the process of configuring an instrument to provide a result for a sample within an acceptable range. Eliminating or minimizing factors that cause inaccurate measurements is a fundamental aspect of instrumentation design.

Calibration is the process of adjusting and verifying the accuracy of a measuring instrument or system, such as an electronic device or sensor, to ensure that it provides the correct readings or outputs within the specified tolerance levels. The process involves comparing the results of the device under test to a reference standard and making necessary adjustments to bring the device’s readings into alignment with the standard. This helps to ensure that the device operates within its specified accuracy range, and provides reliable and consistent measurements over time.
During Regulatory inspection, you should be able to show through your documents:
- When a specific piece of equipment was last calibrated/maintained
- The results or action
- When the next calibration/maintenance is scheduled
Not having this documentation is considered a GMP deviation.
You should Calibrate, inspect or check equipment used for significant processing and testing operations according to a written program. Keep records. Ensure a system is in place to support identification of calibration status by using status labelling (tag).
