1 ThermometerCalibration GuideNancy C. Flores, Boyle, ,Associate ProfessorKansas State UniversityAgricultural Experiment Station andCooperative Extension ServiceTemperature is a critical measurement for ensuring the safetyand quality of many food products. There are a variety of commer-cial temperature monitoring devices available. Whether monitor-ing temperatures at receiving, throughout production or finalproduct storage and distribution, Thermometer Calibration isessential. The validation, verification reassessment section of theHazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) system statedin the Code of Federal Regulations (9 CFR 3 ) specifies thatinstruments used for monitoring critical control points must becalibrated.
Thermometer calibration for use in cold process and products (ice water method) A similar calibration procedure can be used for thermometers intended to be used in cold processes and products. The same NIST reference thermometer used for high temperature calibration can be used for low temperature calibration as long as the thermometer is
