tHb calibration
Purpose The calibration is used to calibrate the analyzer’s spectrophotometer and is
performed once every three months on S7770 tHb Calibrating Solution. The
calibration can be included in the Calibration Schedule.
Preparation
•
It is recommended to perform the Protein Removal Program before a tHb
calibration in order to remove protein deposits – see Decontamination and
Protein Removal program , chapter 7 .
•
Check that the analyzer is in the Ready mode.
•
Prepare an ampoule of S7770 Calibrating Solution, an H700 Ampoule adapter
and an ampoule opener.
