Post Accuracy Check - AS FST Recordkeeping

10) It is essential to verify the calibration. Always use a new
mouthpiece and an approved gas standard. THE RESULT OF THE ACCURACY
CHECK FOLLOWING A CALIBRATION SHOULD BE WITHIN ±.003 OF THE EXPECTED VALUE
OF THE STANDARD GAS READING. |
|
11) Attach a new mouthpiece then press and hold the OFF button while
simultaneously pressing the ON button. (Follow the
Accuracy Check
procedure) |
|
12) Observe the result and compare it to the known value of the Standard
gas. If the result of the Accuracy Check following a
Calibration does not produce a result within ±.003 of the standards
target value you will need to perform another Calibration procedure followed
by a post-calibration accuracy check. |
|
13) Record the result. |

To demonstrate compliance with your program's QAP it is best to keep a
record or a Calibration
Log for each device
used for testing. The log should contain the results of all accuracy
checks and calibrations for each instrument. This log may become a
crucial piece of evidence should your test results be challenged. The
log may include information such as:
- Date
- Time
- Procedure performed (Accuracy Check or Calibration)
- Name of Technician performing procedure
- Location
- Identification of the Standard including Lot Number of the Standard
- Expected Value of the Standard
- Result of the Accuracy Check or Calibration
