OLYMPIC BILI-METER
Instruction Manual
Calibrating the Bili-Meter
The Bili-Meter was factory calibrated to a radiometric standard traceable to the
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The calibration certificate
is enclosed with this manual.
To assure continued accurate measurement of irradiance, the Bili-Meter should be
recalibrated every 12 months to a radiometric (irradiance) standard. Because
certain calibration factors are stored in the Bili-Meter memory, the Bili-Meter must
be recalibrated at Olympic Medical. The date of the last calibration is labeled on the
readout and sensor.
Both the readout and sensor should be returned for calibration. Bili-Meters under
warranty are recalibrated at no cost. Others are recalibrated at nominal cost. For
information on returning the Bili-Meter, see below.
Service and Repair
The Olympic Bili-Meter has no customer serviceable parts, and must be returned to
Olympic Medical for all repairs and parts replacement. After any service, the
Bili-Meter must be recalibrated radiometrically to assure accurate measurement
of irradiance.
Returning for Calibration or Service
The readout and sensor must be returned together for calibration or service.
