About the Calibration log template

Keeping equipment accurate involves having a reliable system to track every calibration. This calibration log template helps you standardize how you record calibration dates, results, and technician details across your team. It keeps your documentation organized and reduces the risk of costly errors, boosting compliance with industry standards.

A step-by-step guide to using the calibration log template

Here’s how to implement the template in your regular workflow:

  1. Customize the template to fit your equipment. Start by tailoring the template to match your specific equipment. Add fields for unique identifiers like inventory number, calibration standards, and frequency. In Lumiform, you can easily edit the template within the app to include specific requirements for different devices.
  2. Log calibration details consistently. Each time there’s a calibration, fill in the equipment information and the technician’s name. Consistency is key—use the same format across all entries to make tracking trends and identifying issues easier over time.
  3. Record as-found and as-left conditions, Document the equipment’s condition before and after calibration. Note if readings were within tolerance both times. This helps identify recurring calibration issues, making it easier to spot equipment that may need more frequent checks.
  4. Delegate responsibility clearly. Assign the log to the technician responsible for the calibration. They’ll fill it out directly in the app, reducing errors from manual data transfers and keeping accountability clear.
  5. Review and analyze regularly. Use the collected data to identify patterns. Are certain devices falling out of tolerance more often? Are calibration results improving? Regular reviews help you optimize maintenance schedules and improve equipment reliability.

Best practices for using the calibration log template

Keep your calibration records sharp and reliable by following these best practices.

First, customize the template to match equipment-specific requirements. Not all equipment has the same calibration needs, so it’s important to adjust the template to reflect what matters for each device. You can add fields for specific details like environmental conditions, calibration intervals, or unique equipment IDs.

It’s crucial to record data immediately after calibration to avoid errors. Delays in logging calibration data can lead to forgotten details or inaccuracies. Make it a habit to record the results as soon as the calibration is complete.

Aim to include detailed notes for failed calibrations. Don’t just mark it as “fail”—document what went wrong, potential causes, and any corrective actions taken. Detailed notes help you identify recurring issues, whether it’s equipment degradation, environmental factors, or procedural errors.

Frequently asked questions

What information should I include in a calibration log?

A calibration log should include key details like the equipment name, ID, model, and serial number. You’ll also need to record the calibration date, technician’s name, calibration standard used, and the results—whether the equipment passed or failed. Don’t forget to log as-found and as-left readings.

Who is responsible for maintaining calibration logs?

The responsibility usually falls on the calibration technician performing the work. However, in larger operations, quality assurance managers or equipment supervisors may oversee the logs to make sure they’re complete and accurate. It’s important to have clear accountability so records are up-to-date.

What’s the difference between as-found and as-left readings?

As-found readings are the measurements taken before any calibration adjustments. These show the equipment’s condition at the time of inspection. As-left readings are recorded after calibration to show how the equipment performs once adjustments are complete. Compare both to identify calibration drift and equipment stability over time.
