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