VALIDATION OF A COMPLEX MEASURING SYSTEM

Roman Flegar, Tanasko Tasić
Abstract:
Applications of modern, computer (software) controlled measuring systems are various, from automation of testing and calibration laboratories to legal metrology measuring instruments and systems. Requirements to be met by such instruments or systems are usually defined by national or international legislation or international technical, safety, or laboratory competence standards. Validation of fulfilment of these requirements is essential for the conformity assessment of these instruments and systems. The complexity of validation and resources needed in the validation process depend on the construction of the object of validation and may be very extensive, especially in the case of computer based measuring systems. Suggested approach for modular validation of complex measuring systems may reduce the validation efforts, as well as costs and time consumption.
