Introduction
The 9600 Plus Calibration Tester verifies calibration of the
following thermometers:
• Welch Allyn SureTemp
®
models (678, 678 OEM, 679 and
986)
• Welch Allyn SureTemp
®
Plus models (690, 692 and 692
OEM)
• Braun ThermoScan
®
Pro 3000 and Pro 4000
The 9600 Plus Calibration Tester provides a tightly regulated
temperature source that eliminates the setup, precision
calibration, and maintenance requirements of water baths and
other general purpose calibration equipment. The user takes
the “temperature” of the 9600 Plus Calibration Tester with the
knowledge and assurance that precise readings are obtained
because the unit is factory calibrated to National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST) or equivalent devices
. User
adjustments are not required or recommended.
The “blackbody” of the 9600 Plus Calibration System acts as
a heat reservoir for the thermistor probe and as a heat
radiator for the infrared ear thermometer.
The unit contains solid-state circuitry for long-term stability
with minimal maintenance. Welch
Allyn uses only precision
components in the construction of the 9600 Plus Calibration
Tester. To maintain traceability to NIST or equivalent, return
the 9600 Plus Calibration Tester to the factory for annual
calibration
