device: ambient temperature: -20ºC ~60ºC, relative humidity 10%~95%, atmospheric pressure: 50kPa~107.4kPa. The Oximeter is calibrated in the factory before sale, so there is no need to calibrate it during its life cycle. Any SpO simulators should not be used to validate the accuracy of the Oximeter, they can only be used as functional testers to verify its precision.
Page 45
If it is necessary to verify the precision of the Oximeter routinely, the user can do the verification by means of SpO simulator, or it can be done by the local third party test house. Please note that the specific calibration curve (so called R-curve) should be selected when use of SpO simulator, e.g.
