CALIBRATION

Fridge / freezer calibration procedures

Temperature mapping

Logs temperature at several positions inside the refrigerator or freezer to find warm and cold spots and prove that the storage area stays within its range.

Open procedure
QUALIFICATION

Instrument qualification (DQ · IQ · OQ · PQ)

  1. 01

    DQ — Design qualification

    Defines the temperature range, capacity, uniformity, alarm and monitoring requirements and whether a flammable-safe unit is needed.

  2. 02

    IQ — Installation qualification

    Checks model, serial number, location (ventilation clearance), power supply, alarm wiring and documents.

  3. 03

    OQ — Operational qualification

    Empty-chamber mapping, controller accuracy, door-opening recovery, power-failure hold-over time and alarm tests.

  4. 04

    PQ — Performance qualification

    Loaded mapping over typically 24–72 hours to prove the unit holds its range in routine use.
