Thermometer Calibration Procedure - mise à jour
Sujet(s) : Aliments
Alberta Health Services, Calgary has a routine thermometer calibration program to ensure the accuracy of thermometers used in the field by Environmental Public Health Inspectors. Inspectors submit their thermometers for calibration on a monthly basis to the calibration team, with 50% of the thermometers calibrated on week 2, and on week 4, the remainder. Calibration team members assess the accuracy of each thermometer at hot and cold temperatures in comparison to a laboratory calibrated reference thermometer. Those within acceptable accuracy range are returned to inspectors for continued use, those that are outside of acceptable parameters are held until they can be adjusted, corrected, or taken out of use.
