Calibration Check Using Instrument Standards

The Check Tile

The check tile (green for MultiSensor Software systems and blue denim for SheLyn software systems) is
used to detect if the sensor drifts during operation. Drift can result in erroneous readings for product.
The check tile is located in the automatic tile holder.
Follow the instructions in your software user's manual to configure your system to automatically
perform the check tile test.

The Fluorescent Standard

The fluorescent standard is used as a check to assure that the light source contains the proper ratio of UV
to visible light energy. The proper ratio is that which is equal to D65 illumination per the Ganz-Greisser
method.
The operating software allows you to initiate an automatic calibration of the UV content. The sensor
system reads the fluorescent standard and adjusts the UV content via a motor-driven filter. Correct UV-
visible balance is achieved when the whiteness reading of the fluorescent tile equals the factory-assigned
value, which is written on the back of tile.
The UV calibration procedure should be performed along with every primary standardization.
