Calibration and
Offset Instructions
Œ
Turn on the Slide Drying Hotplate.

Set the temperature of the Slide Drying
Hotplate to the desired temperature.
Ž
Let the instrument reach working
temperature and leave for 30 minutes
before carrying out a calibration check,
this ensures that the temperature
of the hotplate has equilibrated.

Check temperature with a calibrated
digital thermometer fitted with a surface
probe. The temperature should be
measured in the centre of the hotplate
(back to front and side to side) , as shown
in the image.

Compare the temperature shown on
the Slide Drying Hotplate display with
the temperature shown on your external
digital probe.
‘
If the two numbers are in close
agreement i.e. within ± 1°C (as shown in
the image above) , then the instrument
is within calibration. If the temperatures
are not in agreement i.e. a difference
greater than ± 1°C, then the instrument
will need to be re-calibrated.
