User calibration– main controller
The controller uses dual point calibration at two temperatures for more accurate
temperature control. The calibration parameters are Offset low and Offset High.
Recommended settings for the two points are 800°C and 1400°C but these are adjustable.
Positive or negative offsets may be used, determined by calibration of the thermocouple and
controller.
Thermocouple calibration
The thermocouple must be removed from the MRF 16/22 and calibrated by comparison
using a calibrated heat source.
Controller calibration
The controller and thermocouple connection cables must be calibrated by injecting milli-
volts down the thermocouple cables into the controller from a calibrated source.
