SECTION 7
– CALIBRATION
The temperature, humidity, and CO
2
systems can all be calibrated as necessary.
CARON recommends an annual calibration check of all three systems. If calibration is
required, allow the cabinet to stabilize a minimum of 12 hours from a power off condition.
If the unit has been in operation, allow a minimum of 3 hours of stable operation at all
set-points. If you do not have the appropriate reference instruments to perform
calibration, contact CARON’s service department for on-site calibration at
[email protected] . Caron also provides validation services which ensures that
the unit is functioning properly according to IQ, OQ and PQ protocols which satisfy FDA
guidelines for qualification verification of equipment.
Calibrating the Temperature
If temperature calibration is needed, the following steps can be taken:
Locate the reference instrument’s temperature sensor in close proximity to the cabinet’s
geometric center. Be sure that the stabilization times described earlier have been
satisfied prior to performing this calibration. Press the advance key until the green
display reads i.CAl (calibrate). Pressing the up arrow will increase the Temperature
calibration offset by 0.1

C. Pressing the down arrow will decrease the Temperature
calibration offset by 0.1

C. Pressing and holding either button will rapidly scroll the
calibration offset. When finished, press the infinity key to return to the main menu.
Be sure that all reference instruments are
calibrated to an appropriate standard.
