The validation program tests the accuracy of the temperature of the block. The program
procedure selects consecutive temperatures.
The temperatures on the display of the device are compared with the internal values. This cycle
is carried out in six different block positions. The validation procedure for the Mastercycler 384
takes approx. one hour while for the Mastercycler pro 384 and Mastercycler ep 384 a period of
approx. 30 min. is required to complete validation.
In the event of any deviation calibration / adjustment should be subsequently performed.
The accuracy of the measuring system is ± 0.3 K for the measurement range for 35 °C to 95 °C.
The permitted tolerance for the Mastercycler 384 is ± 0.6 K (35 °C and 72 °C) resp. ±1.0 K
(95 °C).
The permitted tolerance for the Mastercycler pro 384 and Mastercycler ep 384 is ± 0.6 K (35°C)
resp. ± 1.0 K (95 °C).
