In chemical analysis made by laboratories one has the problem of determining the concentration of a chemical element in a sample. In order to tackle this problem the guide EURACHEM/CITAC recommends the application of the linear calibration model, so implicitly assume that there is no measurement error in the independent variable $X$. In this work, it is proposed a new calibration model assuming that the independent variable is controlled. This assumption is appropriate in chemical analysis where the process tempting to attain the fixed known value $X$ generates an error and the resulting value is $x$, which is not an observable. However, observations on its surrogate $X$ are available. A simulation study is carried out in order to verify some properties of the estimators derived for the new model and it is also considered the usual calibration model to compare it with the new approach. Three applications are considered to verify the performance of the new approach.
