I think in your case the maximum deviation between two measurement methods is the maximum difference of their measurements for the same input sample.Thus if the two methods agree or nearly agree on most samples, but on one sample differ by a large value 1.2%, then the &quot;maximum deviation between two measurement methods&quot; is that 1.2%.
