Does it need Calibration every year?

The manual states that certain items should be tested at least once a year to ensure the unit remains in good working order. These include mechanical functions, operation according to technical data, the electrical system, and safety devices. However, it does not explicitly mention "calibration." Therefore, while annual testing is required, the need for calibration is not specifically stated.

*m>JI If the unit UT 6 P is to be fitted under a table or into a laboratory fixture, it must be connected to an exhaust air extraction system. The top clearance may only be reduced to min. 5 cm under such circumstances.
SETUP AND INSTALLATION Room ventilation Adequate ventilation must be provided wherever the unit is installed. Do not operate the unit In non-ventilated enclosed spaces. Special ventilation measures (e.g. ventilation of designated work areas, FRG also refer to VDI 1946 Part 7) when several units are Installed in one room. Mains connection The laboratory unit is supplied with a permanently connected, flexible mains power lead with connector (grounded).
SETUP AND INSTALLATION Connecting to an extraction system Comply with the applicable national environmental regulations for the extraction of exhaust gases released during the heat treatment. Suitable measures must be implemented to ensure that such gases are safely led outside (FRG: BlmSchG). Such measures may involve thermal or catalytic treatment of flue gases.

UNIT SPECIFICATION • 2 & 3 Overtemperature protection device / signal lamp: Functional test of the TWB (Prerequisite: required working temperature (control unit) has been reached /remains constant) Set the TWB to approx. 10 - 20 'C below the temperature displayed on the control unit. The TWB must respond, the red signal lamp indicates "Fault".
UNIT SPECIFICATION Item B: Automatic control unit The automatic control unit contains the basic functions of a 2-posilion controller with PD/PID control response, time switch to switch the heating and ventilation on / off after the set time, the added features of permanently programmed heating process programs and the programmed controller functions of a freely programmable process controller.
UNIT SPECIFICATION Added-feature programming functions, fixed programs The control unit is capable of running heating process programs with fixed, preselected parameters from a database. The program segment and the parameters are stored in the database. The fixed program contains a maximum of four program segments and a status command. Fig.
• Fixed program segments: Program segment" P 1. n " (n = -, 0... 9): Assigning a parameter (0 ... 9) from the database causes the unit to switch on heating and ventilation on expiry of a preset period. Selectable parameters In this program segment: PI.
UNIT SPECIFICATION • Example of a fixed program *• Example E1: Hot-air sterilization process The heating should switch on in 8 hours, the unit should heat up to an operating temperature of 190 *C (sterilization temperature) at a rate of 200 *C/h, maintain this temperature for 4 hours (equalization phase and sterilization period) and should subsequently cool down at a rate of 20 •C/h.
OPERATION Programmed controller function The programmed controller function enables the arbitrary definition of temperature / time processes. You may select up to 9 program segments. Operating temperature, period and air speed level can be selected for each segment. Termination commands A termination command can be selected as the last program segment.
