WHAT IS NIST TRACEABLE CALIBRATION?
NIST Traceable calibration ensures that measurement results indicated on the certificate can be traced back to NIST mass standards. For an item to be NIST traceable, it must adhere to specific guidelines defined by the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
According to NIST, traceability is the property of a measurement result that establishes a documented, unbroken chain of calibrations, contributing to measurement uncertainty. In simpler terms, calibration weights used are traceable back to NIST mass standards, and each step in the calibration chain adds to the uncertainty of these weights.
HOW ARE MEASUREMENT RESULTS MADE NIST TRACEABLE? Several key requirements must be met for something to be recognized as NIST traceable:
- Clearly defining what is being measured.
- Defining the working standards used for measurements.
- Explicitly stating the measurement results.
- Documenting the specifications of reference standards, including their last calibration dates, that the working standards were compared to.
- Following an internal program to uphold the integrity and traceability of working standards.

If all these criteria are satisfied, the reported measurement results are considered NIST traceable.
