Thank you for sharing

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,
