No matter what industry you are in, accuracy is key when using temperature measurement equipment. However, over-extended use, especially extremes in temperature, humidity, and general wear and tear, can reduce instrument accuracy. If you work in a regulated environment, you may need to calibrate your equipment to ensure compliance with relevant regulations periodically.

Temperature calibration is the process of comparing one device’s readings to those of another device calibrated to a known set of parameters. Most devices require continuous calibration throughout their life to maintain accuracy.
