Calibration is the process of configuring an instrument to provide a result for a sample within an acceptable range. This process eliminated or minimized factors that cause inaccurate measurements. Although the exact procedure may vary from product to product, the calibration process generally involves using calibration instrument to test samples of one or more known values called "calibrators". The results are then used to establish a relationship between the measurement technique used by the instrument and the known values. The process in essence "teaches" the instrument to produce results that are more accurate than those that occur otherwise. The instrument can then provide more accurate results when samples of unknown values are tested in the normal usage of the product.
