6.3 Temperature calibration
6.3.1 Overview
Company directives require all companies working under a quality assurance management to periodically
calibrate their equipment. The calibration must guarantee that the instrument fulfils the defined specifica-
tions.
6.3.2 When to perform calibration
INTEGRA Biosciences recommends the following:
• Calibration must be performed at least once a year, preferably in combination with a service
• Calibration must be performed after each instrument adjustment or repair
6.3.3 Temperature calibration routine
For temperature calibration, an external temperature measuring system is required. Instrument and sen-
sor must be calibrated together. To ensure an high accuracy, a good temperature instrument and a high-
class sensor is needed. INTEGRA Biosciences provides an appropriate system including a temperature-
measuring instrument and a double Pt100 temperature sensor 1/10 DIN with a calibration protocol for the
entire system. (Order number: 135800)
6.3.3.1 Using the INTEGRA temperature calibration set (Order Nr. 135800)
• Connect the double Pt100 sensor to the temperature sensor inlet. There are two connector cables.
One is connected to the MediaClave rear panel, the other one to the external instrument.
• Compare the true temperature reading with the temperature reading on the display. If the displayed
reading differs from the true reading more than defined by internal company directives, the tempera-
ture measurement must be adjusted. Contact a Service Technician (see chapter 8).
6.3.3.2 Using another temperature measurement system for calibration
• An external temperature measuring system, consisting of a measuring instrument and a Pt100 tem-
perature sensor, is required.
• Connect this system to the dispense port
• Compare the reference temperature reading with the temperature reading on the display. If the dis-
played reading differs from the reading, contact a Service Technician (see chapter 8 for addresses).
ATTENTION:
Reference temperature instrument and sensor must be calibrated together as a sys-
tem.
ATTENTION:
To make sure that there is a homogeneous temperature inside the MediaClave, the
stirrer must be switched on.
