Dear All,

Does anyone have a reference which state that annual calibration of reference measuring device (eg. thermometer, pressure gauge) is a mandatory?

Dear avila muncar,

The calibration interval logically depends on the device, eg via risk assessment. Various examples exist on this forum.

However, I daresay you can find specific, published, recommendations for the maximum calibration interval of certain devices, eg by manufacturers.

Hello, actually it shall be every 6 months for sensitive parameters of the retort, see "Principles of Canning", "Calibration for Thermal Processing", Campdem Guide CCFRA,
