Kim D Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 How are you documenting temperature of headblock in new combo system? green light ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REN_NH Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 We document that the light is indeed green, indicating that the factory set temperature is OK, on our Daily Temperatures and Checks form as a check mark each day for the "MTS Incubator Status Light Green?". We also check the RPM's daily and record on the same form. SbbPerson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do the same as Ren_Hh , we put a check mark on the daily temperature log. The tech support people assured us that the green light means the system is within acceptable temperature(approx. 36 to 38 C) range. Besides, good luck trying to find a thermometer small enough to fit into those heating blocks/wells with the cover closed too.

Kelly Guenthner Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 We're still rockin' this original setup on our single combined Ortho Workstation. It's trash, but it works. If/when it's time to replace our 2 old separate setups, we will try to source an alternative. SbbPerson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a dummy slide with the probe wedged in the well and putty sealing around the opening. For those wondering if a thermometer will fit -- there are some that do, and the wiring threads out under the cover using a small notch SbbPerson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if Ortho required people to have one of those, it would have been supplied with the workstation, instead of people just rigging something up.

I use a similar setup, but with an infrared probe/gun wire, to perform verifications every 6 months (operator's manual says "as needed"). Other than that it is just the daily green light check for temp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim D Posted March 5 Author Share Posted March 5 I have ordered a wire thermometer similar to the picture shown and plan to use that to verify green light. Thanks everyone for responses. I am concerned inspector won't accept light is green so okay!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
