IP 570 PTS Quarterly Membership - SA4032-0

Support analytical competency and compliance with ISO 17025 recommended practice in IP 570/14a.

Validation of apparatus performance is stated as a mandatory requirement at least every three months in IP 570/14a. Participation in the Seta IP 570 Proficiency Testing Scheme is the preferred means to achieve this requirement, enabling laboratories to evaluate their performance for testing H2S in the liquid phase using the Seta H2S Analyser.

Participants in the statistical quality assurance programme can continually monitor and compare their performance by analysing their data against similar laboratories in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025. This gives the ability to demonstrate compliance with laboratory accreditation requirements, identify any potential equipment or operational bias and provide added confidence to staff and customers. Ultimately helping to increase laboratory efficiency whilst reducing costs.
