| 1.160 | working interval | ||
| working range | |||
| Set of quantity values over which a measuring instrument or measuring system provides results with acceptable measurement uncertainty, under defined conditions. | |||
| Note 1: | In some fields, the term is “measurement range”. In entry 4.7 of VIM, a similar concept termed “measuring interval” is defined. | ||
| Note 2: | The working interval is bounded by the lower and upper limit of quantification. | ||
| Note 3: | The lower limit of a working interval should not be confused with detection limit. | ||
