8.6. Operation
This section includes procedures for operating the Kaye Validator AVS. Procedures include sensor calibration,
running the qualification study, and verifying sensor calibration.
8.6.1. Sensor Calibration
Calibrate sensors before running the qualification study. Standalone sensor calibration requires a Kaye
temperature reference and IRTD.
Procedure
1. Place the Kaye Validator AVS (with temperature reference and IRTD connected) in a location with stable and
even temperature, not exposed to any local heating or cooling sources (i.e., close to a sterilizer, an open
door causing a draft, etc.).
2. Power up the Kaye Validator AVS and let it run for approximately 30 minutes in the operating environment in
order to acclimate to the ambient temperature.
Note: The fan of the temperature reference should not blow toward the Kaye Validator AVS.
3. Insert the thermocouple sensors into the temperature reference.
4. Load the setup from Console into the Kaye Validator AVS.
On Console, go to Set Up tab of Asset details screen, select Set Up file and click on initiate calibration
button.
Select Kaye Validator AVS.
5. Select sensors to calibrate.
Select Sensors on sensor selection screen appears.
To select individual sensors by clicking on it or use select all button
Click Initiate Calibration button
6. Calibrate sensors.
Press Start.
The Kaye Validator AVS automatically performs sensor calibration at the specified setpoints.
When calibration is complete
Press Save to save the file.
