Grace, >From the point of view of your quality system, you should to an 'incoming inspection' for equipment returned after calibration. I would suggest two checks: 1. A review of the calibration certificate to check that the data is 'reasonable'. I've seen quite a few mistakes in these certificates, e.g. wrong parameters calibrated, wrong serial numbers, etc. Obvious you are probably not in a position to question 'reasonable' looking data. You should sign and date the certificate to document your approval. 2. If applicable, a simple on/off check to ensure that the instrument is operational.

I assume the equipment is fine after calibration. Is this assumption acceptable (from laboratory accreditation point of view)? Thank you.
