Re: Calibration Certificate for New Equipment
The same information that a calibration cert for a used piece of equipment should contain. There is no real difference. It is a calibration of an instrument that determines the gage can make reliable readings.
Agreed. Just roughly:
1. Customer information; company information
2. Date/ time, recall information (if applicable).
3. Standards used information
4. Procedure/ guideline listed
5. Instrument under test specific information
6. Data test points, values observed, tolerances
7. Comments, observations
8. Date, signature, review, etc.
As far as the monitor/logger, it depends. A factory calibration may check voltages, board readings, cold junction compensators, etc. Another may check one channel with a simulator; yet another may check all input channels. So the data could be a paragraph, or three pages long.
Al, is any of that helpful?
