You can order an ISO calibration from Testo's calibration subsidiary, Testo Industrial Services in Kirchzarten, using order number 0520 0028. This means your testo 270 will be calibrated at two points (at approx. 3% and at approx. 24% TPM) under precise laboratory conditions.

Function test For a simple function test without adjustment (accuracy +/- 3 % TPM ), we recommend a measurement during the commissioning of your new instrument in unused deep-frying oil at 150 to 180 °C.
2. Allow sensor and probe shaft to cool until there is no longer a risk of burns. 3. Clean sensor before the oil residues cool down.

When heating the reference oil, make sure that no water gets into the reference oil or onto the sensor. The reference oil must be heated to approx. 50 °C for calibration and adjustment. typically, based on Testo in-house reference, at an ambient temperature of 25 °C.
