D. CALIBRATION
Your I-Cal 8000 was calibrated before shipping. You do not need to recalibrate the equipment. The
Calmetrix team will email you the calibration file corresponding to your equipment.
Once
received,
place
the

calibration

file
("xxxxx-xxx.ccicalcal")
into
the
calibration
folder:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\Calmetrix\CalCommander\Calibration.
A test run with duplicate samples of neat cement paste in all sample cells should always be conducted prior
to commencing work after the calorimeter has been relocated or not in use for more than one month. A
typical result of a test run after calibration is shown in Figure 1. Re-calibration is needed only if the signal
from duplicate samples deviate more than 10% measured as the maximum signal from the silicate peak
[arrow "A" in Figure1].
More detailed instructions about calibration procedures can be found on the Quick Set-Up sheet located in
your Accessories box.
