What is an Equipment Calibration Log Template?
An Equipment Calibration Log Template is a digital record sheet of the calibration history of all the measuring and monitoring equipment for the purpose of making sure all equipment stay true in terms of function and measurement to the standards. It all depends on the company or organisation where the calibration is done, if resources are available this is done internally, if not an external calibration laboratory does the calibration.

Why is maintaining a calibration log important?
An equipment calibration log is just as important as the actual calibration itself because it enables proper tracking and controls the follow up and next steps of when the next calibration is due. If calibration is not performed on schedule, it can lead to several disadvantages like machine failure, inaccurate measurements of the equipment, unreliable data and increase safety risks, so keeping track of your calibration measures in a systematic way is critical to equipment longevity.
Equipment calibration log is also a requirement to international regulations in relation to maintaining a management system for documentation to record the calibration status of all the measuring and monitoring equipment within an organisation.
How would an equipment calibration log template help your management system?
Usually, the equipment managers and staff are the ones who monitor the equipment calibration. You might be familiar with the legacy practice of printing equipment calibration forms affixing it to the machine with the purpose of informing and reminding technicians when the next calibration is due but there’s also a human tendency to skip checking the calibration due date thereby missing it. To prevent this, there must be a reliable equipment calibration log template to use that can structure all the schedules and the calibration statuses of this equipment.
This equipment calibration log template can help you in these ways:
Easily customisable template
Whether you’re maintaining a paper-based equipment calibration log or a digitised one in Excel, preview this pre-built template made using Dashpivot or create your own and explore using drag and drop system.
Never miss a calibration due date with its notification feature
You can set a notification for equipment calibration due dates and notify by email the worker in-charge of the equipment to send it for calibration and even send this template to fill in when results are ready.
Hassle-free compliance to international regulations
International regulations like ISO 9001/ISO 17025 requires records/evidence of activities including calibration records, this equipment log template easy to extract or send as PDF for easy confirmation or checking.
Centralised storage system
The equipment calibration log is different from the equipment calibration form and usually, you'd have separate storage for the forms and the log to relate to. However, this template is made using a centralised storage system within a software that stores all calibration log, forms and other similar documents using one designated location making it easy to access and manage.
What should be included in an Equipment Calibration Log template?
Since the equipment calibration log is a summary and monitoring of all the equipment’s calibration, the essential items should be the following:
- Equipment Details – includes the name of the equipment being calibrated, serial number or equipment ID
- Calibration Dates – should have the actual date of calibration, when it was last calibrated, and next calibration date. All these dates are very important to ensure frequency of calibration is followed.
- Calibrated by – indicates if it’s calibrated internally or externally and if so which laboratory. You can also easily set up a List in the Dashpivot List Library to add all the accredited equipment laboratory and easily choose from those.
- Calibration status – to indicate if the calibration passed or failed in the first instance it was calibrated, if it did not pass, it must be actioned to have the calibration done the next time.
- Remarks – necessary remarks regarding the calibration can be added here, for example if the calibration failed, the action items should be noted.
As you can see all these necessary information are found in the pre-built equipment calibration log template we sampled and it's completely customisable according to your calibration monitoring needs.
