Is it necessary to calibrate Variable Power Supplies (VPS)?

A. Variable Power Supplies (VPS) do not require routine calibration. Every VPS manufactured and shipped from Fusion UV Systems is calibrated as part of our normal testing procedure. However, you should recalibrate if you have replaced the high voltage board, a high voltage diode, control transformer, or have swapped or replaced one of the magnetron boards. If the unit is in need of calibration, it will display a “No Calibration” message. This recalibration is important for two reasons. First, it ensures maximum useful life of the magnetrons and secondly, it assures the operator that the power level selected will be accurate to within 2%. In other words, 100% is 100%!
