Sensor Calibration Cross-Reference Log
Every sensor used in a study with calibration certificate, uncertainty and pass/fail.
Purpose
The cross-reference of every sensor and reference instrument used in a study to its calibration certificate, uncertainty, as-found error at the study conditions, calibration validity, and the pre-study and post-study verification results, so that the traceability and uncertainty of the study data are demonstrated.
What it covers
- Authorisation
How to complete it
- 1.Complete for every logger, probe and reference used; attach or reference certificates.
- 2.Record the certificate's as-found error nearest the study set point and its expanded uncertainty; confirm the certificate covers the study range and is valid for the study dates.
- 3.Pre-verification: compare each logger with the reference at one point before placement; post-verification after retrieval; pass criterion per protocol (default +/- 0.3 degC).
- 4.Any sensor failing post-verification is flagged and its data assessed in the report.
Before you use it
- Replace every square-bracket token, starting with [LABORATORY NAME], [ADDRESS] and [EFFECTIVE DATE]. The full token list is in GD-01 Read Me First.
- Have the content technically reviewed against how your laboratory actually works, then approved by the responsible manager before it becomes a controlled document.
- Update the Word fields after editing so the table of contents and page numbers are correct: select all, then press F9.
- Record the document in your own document register and set its review date.
