Technical Definitions
This manual contains different technical terms. Note the following
definitions:
• Incubator temperature—The air temperature at a point 4" (10 cm)
above and centered over the mattress surface.
• Control temperature—The temperature controller’s set point
selected by the user.
• Average incubator temperature—The average of the maximum
and minimum incubator temperatures achieved during temperature
equilibrium.
• Incubator temperature equilibrium—The condition reached when
the average incubator temperature does not vary more than 1 °C
over a period of one hour. These measurements are taken at the
control temperatures of 90 °F (32 °C) and 97 °F (36 °C).
• Temperature uniformity—The amount by which the average
temperature of each of four points 4" (10 cm) above the mattress
surface differs from the average incubator temperature at incubator
temperature equilibrium.
• Temperature rise time—The time required for the incubator
temperature to rise 20 °F (11 °C), when the air control temperature
is at least 22 °F (12 °C) above the ambient temperature.
• Temperature overshoot—The amount by which incubator
temperature exceeds average incubator temperature at incubator
temperature equilibrium as a result of an increase in control
temperature. Additionally, the incubator temperature equilibrium
shall be restored within 15 min as a result of an increase in control
temperature value.
• Temperature correlation: Incubator temperature versus control
temperature—The amount the air temperature indicator at incubator
temperature equilibrium differs from the control temperature.
• Temperature correlation: Temperature indicator versus control
temperature—The amount the air temperature indicator in air mode
at incubator temperature equilibrium differs from the control
temperature.
• Measurement points—Measurements are taken at five points in a
plane parallel to and 4" (10 cm) above the mattress surface: One
point (A) is 4" (10 cm) above the center of the mattress, and the
