Upgrading Your Calibration Lab - A Case Study

A 3rd-party audit of a calibration lab raised concerns about how the lab was monitoring ambient temperature and humidity conditions, critical parameters for calibration quality.

The auditor pointed out a number of issues with the lab's monitoring system for temperature and humidity. The lab relied on chart recorders for most applications. The following points came back on an audit:

  • The chart recorder’s inaccuracy couldn’t provide the information they needed. In this case the width of the pen was producing too much error.
  • Dubious calibration of the chart recorder, inherent in its mechanical nature, made the lab's monitoring ineffective.
  • There was no reliable 24/7 alarm system. This left the calibration lab's monitored environments vulnerable to drifting out of specification. This had occurred within the calendar year of this audit and had caused costly downtime.
  • Missing records were common. Some historical charts could not be located. Personnel didn't know if the charts were misfiled or the chart paper run out.
  • Many of this calibration lab's customers required ISO 17025 accreditation. The audit threatened the lab's ability to provide that.
