measured values, which means it allows to compare
different types of systems that may have completely
different output parameters. The RSD is also known as
coefficient of variation (CV).
The obtained values show the outstanding repeatability
and intermediate precision routinely achievable with
any instrument in the Prometheus platform.

calculated for 10 individual
instruments as well as the average variation for the 48
sample positions across the 10 instruments. The table
lists standard deviations (SD) and relative standard
deviations (RSD). The RSD is useful as a dimensionless
parameter that is independent of the magnitude of the
