5.0 PROCEDURE

5.1 Calibration
Procedure                                                                                            

5.1.1 Set -80  0 C temperature at which temperature
calibration of Ultra –Low Temperature    freezer
has to be done.

5.1.2 Use the set key
& press it on the control panel of the Ultra –Low Temperature to memorise

          the temperature.

5.1.3 
Press the numerical Value Shift Key &
digital shift key to set -80 0 C temperature.

5.1.4 
Wait for the set temperature to flash on
control panel display screen.

5.1.5 
Wait for few minutes to maintain the
temperature in Ultra –Low Temperature freezer.

5.1.6 Open the door
latch & insert the PT-100 sensor of calibrated digital thermometer                                     
(-80 to 199.9 C)

5.1.6  Record
the temperature observed on Ultra-Low Temperature freezer & calibrated
digital thermometer.

5.1.7 Record the temperature at set temperature at
different time interval first reading at zero hr,

         Second
reading at the interval of 2 hrs & third reading after 2 hrs of second
reading.

5.1.8 Zero hr will be
defined as the time of starting the calibration of Ultra Low Temperature

         Freezer.
