An accurate temperature measurement device is crucial to health issues. During use, the electronic thermometer needs to be calibrated to ensure the accuracy of temperature measurement. The specific method is as follows:
1. Create a reference and use a standard calibration device, such as a mercury thermometer, optical thermometer or calibrator. Make sure the calibration equipment has completed its own calibration.
2. Place the standard equipment and electronic thermometer in the same environment at the same time to ensure that they are in the same state, such as vacuum environment or room temperature environment.
3. Wait for a period of time (for example, 15 minutes) to allow the device to fully adapt to the ambient temperature, thereby eliminating the impact of ambient temperature.
4. Use a standard device to measure a temperature, such as 37°C in a standard environment, and transfer the temperature to the device for comparison. The comparison shows the difference between the temperatures of the two devices.
5. For digital electronic thermometers, use a correct temperature to verify that the thermometer is measuring correctly. If the measurements are incorrect, the equipment will need to be adjusted or repaired.
6. Oral and armpit thermometers should be calibrated before each use.
7. For other types of thermometers, please follow the relevant instructions and standards and ensure that the measurement results are accurate and reliable.
In short, calibrating an electronic thermometer requires using standard calibration equipment, creating the same environment, making accurate comparisons, and adjusting or repairing the equipment based on the comparison results to ensure the accuracy of temperature measurement.
