How to calibrate each CAL3K Calorimeter Vessel

The following information applies to the : CAL3K-AP , CAL3K-A , CAL3K-F, CAL3K-S and CAL3K-ST.

Each vessel must be calibrated in the CAL3K it is used in. The CAL3K saves up to 16 calibrations per vessel.

The storage in the vessel is organized in:

Vessel serial number
Operating mode

If you have multiple CAL3K’s in a room and don’t want to share the vessels between them then there is no need to calibrate each vessel in each calorimeter.

The CAL3K has the following calibration procedures:

How to start a calibration

	Home
	Start of command
	Accept Command
	Value
	Accept Value

After a calibration, the following items are stored in the vessel in the specified field:

Date and time
Initial drift
Firing temperature
Ambient temperature
Main slope
Temperature-rise
Bomb Factor

The vessels are calibrated in the factory before shipment. However, a change in operating conditions and for quality assurance of the results, the calibration should be repeated regularly. For details see:
