In areas where instrument accuracy is critical to product quality or safety, calibration every few months is not unusual. In chemical and pharmaceutical industries, rigid calibration schedules are necessary in order to maintain compliance.

The purpose of calibration itself is to determine how accurate an instrument or sensor is. This paper looks into the calibration process and the importance of documentation.
