thermometer calibration

Thermometer calibration is the process of ensuring a thermometer provides accurate temperature readings. It involves comparing the thermometer’s measurements against recognized standard temperatures, such as melting ice (0°C or 32°F) and boiling water (100°C or 212°F). If there's a discrepancy, adjustments or corrections are made to align the thermometer's readings with these standards. Regular calibration helps maintain reliability, ensuring temperature measurements in various applications—like cooking, medical use, or scientific experiments—are precise and trustworthy.
