hi all,
all the time we sent the monitoring and measuring devices to external parties for calibration but this year in order to save cost, i was asked to carry out so-called "in house calibration/ verification". i was asked to send only one of each type of equipment for external calibration and keep that as a standard, for example ruler or micrometer. and using that as a standard, i measure things using the "standard" equipment and also non-externally-calibrated equipment, if i can get the same measured value, the equipment is considered "verified" or "calibrated". does this make sense? how often do i do the verification...do i need to have the working instruction? do i need to justify which equipment can be verified this way and which cannot?
thanks for reply.
