Calibration (See Notes Below)
1. It is recommended that calibration be performed by a certified service, preferably
with the system in the location of use. Calibration procedures are the domain of these
service providers.
2. Calibration refers to the process of verifying that each of
the systems’ instruments
that control a process parameter is
within manufacturers’
specification.
3. Calibration DOES NOT refer to the process of measuring the temperature at the
center of the tooling and
“matching”
the value to the temperature controller set point.
4. The measured value at the tooling (thermal nozzle) may not match the temperature
controller set point and the delta is dependent on nozzle style and dimensions as well as
method of measurement.
a.
Calibrate the temperature controller annually.
b.
Calibrate the pressure gauge annually.
c.
Verify the flow meter annually.
