EC-Lab Technical Notes 44: How to check the accuracy of your instrument?

Latest updated: May 17, 2024

Introduction

In most research centers or industrial laboratories, ISO 9000 quality procedures are set to guarantee the accuracy of the instruments used. For this purpose, users need to be able to check instruments’ accuracy specifications, as well as follow a process to calibrate them, if necessary. Note: Coverage intervals are specified for each voltage step, for each current range, inside the abacuses section for both VMP3 and VMP-300 based instruments.
