Introduction to accredited calibration in accordance with ISO 17025. Explanation of the differences from general calibration.
This introduces the differences between accredited calibration based on ISO 17025 and general calibration. You will clearly understand the differences between these two types of calibration certificates and the points to consider. Your measuring instrument can undergo accuracy verification and calibration at WIKA's calibration lab. Calibration can be performed either as general calibration or ISO 17025 accredited calibration. In both cases, the calibration results are documented in a calibration certificate, and a calibration sticker is affixed to the calibrated instrument. Only ISO 17025 accredited calibration guarantees that testing is conducted using testing equipment certified by an international accreditation body. The traceability system diagram is structured to show the hierarchy from the standard instruments used in the inspection factory to the testing standards and national standards. Measurement uncertainty is documented by clarifying not only factors of measurement error such as hysteresis and variation but also measurement deviation and the uncertainty of the standard instrument. Compared to general calibration, ISO 17025 accredited calibration is more accurate, widely applicable, and internationally recognized. For general calibration, the difference in the measuring instrument is determined by considering only hysteresis. Calibration at the time of factory shipment is issued as an inspection certificate in accordance with DIN / EN10204.
