How often does the IMI SENSORS M602D01 Platinum Accelerometer need calibration?

[JeffreyFitz]

To maintain measurement accuracy, the IMI SENSORS M602D01 Platinum Low-cost Industrial ICP Accelerometer, like other precision instruments, benefits from regular calibration. The manufacturer recommends calibration, which is also a good practice, typically on an annual basis. However, the ideal calibration frequency can vary. Consider calibrating the accelerometer after it has been subjected to harsh conditions or before any critical testing to ensure optimal performance. The best approach involves establishing a schedule that reflects your specific application and operating environment. Factors like usage intensity, environmental influences, required accuracy levels, and past calibration results should inform this schedule.
