Curing tank calibration procedures

QUALIFICATION

Instrument qualification (DQ · IQ · OQ · PQ)

  1. 01

    DQ — Design qualification

    Specifies capacity, set point and tolerance (e.g. 27 ± 2 °C), heating and cooling capacity, circulation and data logging.

  2. 02

    IQ — Installation qualification

    Confirms the tank is installed on a suitable floor with drainage and safe electrical supply, and records equipment IDs.

  3. 03

    OQ — Operational qualification

    Maps water temperature at several points across the tank, empty and loaded, and checks controller accuracy and alarms.

  4. 04

    PQ — Performance qualification

    Trends daily temperature records and shows the tank stays within tolerance in routine use across seasons.
