Calibration Procedure For Calibration of Himidity Indicator/ Thermo-Hygrometer

This document outlines the calibration procedure for humidity indicators and thermo-hygrometers. It describes maintaining stable temperature and humidity conditions in the lab or field, inspecting and cleaning the unit under test, calibrating it against standard humidity salts at various points, recording measurements, calculating uncertainty, and issuing a calibration certificate. Responsibilities include the calibration engineer performing calibration and a manager approving the certificate.

CALIBRATION PROCEDURE FOR CALIBRATION OF HIMIDITY

INDICATOR/ THERMO-HYGROMETER

1.0 OBJECTIVE

To define procedure for calibration of Humidity Indicator/Thermo-hygrometer/


Humidity Data logger in laboratory.

2.0 SCOPE

This Calibration Procedure is applicable for calibration Humidity Indicator/Thermo-


hygrometer/ Humidity Data logger in laboratory by comparison method for

3.0 RESPONSIBILITY :
Calibration-engineer will perform the Calibration and note down the details and
measurements on the observation sheet.
Technical/Quality Manager or his designee will check the observation sheet and
approve the Calibration Certificate.

4.0 STANDARD & EQUIPMENT USED:


4.1Range (33 to 75)%RH @25 ˚C
Using Standard Humidity salts.
Support Equipment: The supporting equipment is,
a) (i) A Digital Temperature & Humidity Data Logger (to measure temperature &
relative humidity of air)

5.0 ENVIROMENTAL CONDITION:

At Lab Temperature :- (23 ± 2) °C Relative Humidity :- 30% to 75% RH


On site Temperature :-( 23 ± 5) °C Relative Humidity :- 30% to 75% RH
.
If stated environmental conditions are jeopardized then calibration work will be
stopped & report to technical manager for further instruction

6.0 PRINCIPLE OF CALIBRATION


Humidity is the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere caused by
condensation and evaporation. It can be measured as absolute humidity
(the amount of water vapor in a unit volume of air), or as relative humidity.

7.0 INSPECTION OF THE UUT:


All the UUT received in the laboratory shall be inspected for the following
criteria:
(a) UUT should not be broken.
(b) Display should be clear.

8.0 PROCEDURE FOR CALIBRATION:


8.1Check the calibration points from job card.

8.2Check the temperature and humidity condition of the laboratory/calibration activity


area during calibration and record the same Observation sheet.
8.3Note down the details of UUT in the Observation sheet.
8.4Clean the UUT with help of clean cloth or lint free duster.
8.5Calibration of Humidity:
8.5.1 Maintain the temperature of room nearly 25˚C by using Air Conditioner.
8.5.2 Take the bottle of standard humidity salt & put the instrument inside the
port of bottle
8.5.3 After stabilization take 5 readings at 1 minute interval of standard & UUT
in & note down readings in observation Sheet and apply the correction
factor.
8.5.4 Repeat calibration at different points as per job card.
8.6Affix calibration sticker on UUT.
8.7Calculate the uncertainty of measurement at 5 repeated readings at same
Measurement points. Max. Uniformity and Stability should be taken during
uncertainty calculation.
8.8Prepare the calibration certificate.
8.9Technical/Quality Manager or his designee shall review the observation sheet and
certificate and issue the certificate to the customer.
9.0 SAFETY PRECAUTION:
(a) The standard sensor and the UUT shall be handled carefully.
(b) Readings are always taken at stable condition of the humidity cabinet.
(c) Standard Humidity Solution bottle should be kept closed tightly after use.
10.0 ABBREVIATIONS
CP: Calibration Procedure
STD: Standard
UUT: Unit under test
RH: Relative Humidity
TEMP.: Temperature

11.0 REFERENCE:
ASTM E104-20A

13.0 ESTIMATION OF THE UNCERTAINTY:

An estimate characterizing the range of values within which the true value of the
measurand lies. Technical Manager is responsible to identify the uncertainty
components that are of important to particular calibrations undertaken by the
laboratory.

CALIBRATION PROCEDURE FOR CALIBRATION OF HIMIDITY
INDICATOR/ THERMO-HYGROMETER

The standard uncertainty of measurement U(xi) in calibration is evaluated by


two different methods denoted by Type A and Type B.
The Type-A method of evaluation of uncertainty utilizes the rules of the basic
statistics and quantitatively is equal to the mean of the standard deviation of a set of
the measured values.
