Traceable and UKAS calibrations – how do I choose the right option?
When requesting a calibration service, you may be offered a traceable or UKAS calibration, but which is the right option for your needs? There are fundamental differences that could impact on compliance and successful trading if an unsuitable calibration is performed. We highlight the key features of traceable and UKAS to help you choose the right calibration option for your operations.
Factors for determining calibration frequencies
If you work to ISO 9001: 2015 and/ or ISO 17025:2017 standards, it’s imperative that you establish a calibration programme that ensures the validity of the results given by your weighing equipment. While ISO standards outline the need for calibrations, no prescribed guidance is provided to determine calibration frequency. To safeguard the accuracy of your equipment, we look at key considerations to help you define the best frequency for your process, equipment and application.
