MVE FUSION Quick Reference Guide Calibration of Temperature Probe The factory installed RTD temperature probe used on the MVE Fusion has been calibrated at the factory using a two-point, low temperature range calibration method. This calibration method provides a level of accuracy of +/- 1.8°F (+/- 1°C) when operating at altitudes between 1000ft to 1500ft (305m to 457m).
