Our calibration department regularly calibrates thermometers, pipets, 
equipment (i.e., waterbaths, refrigerators) to ensure they are reporting 
accurate temperatures and measurements.

Hello, I purchased NIST spirit-filled thermometers a few years ago and
recently pulled the certification that I received from them and
noticed
that it says it is only valid for one year!  In lieu of the new CAP
question ANP.23090, I am wondering if I need to purchase a different
type of NIST thermometer. Any suggestions?  Also, does anyone have a
procedure on QC of their thermometers? Thank you!
