How to use the LazaPort8 for the on-site validation of your thermometers.

A growing number of sites are moving away from the outdated Ice and Boiling water method, frustrated with the fact that this time consuming approach puts team members at risk and makes it difficult to obtain consistent temperatures.

A popular solution is the LazaPort8, used throughout the industry to simplify and speed-up thermometer checks. It also helps to drive standards of reliability, accuracy, and traceability.

The following Help Guide explains how the LazaPort8 can be used for the on-site validation of your thermometers.

The LazaPort8 – Manual Checklists

The LazaPort8 helps to ensure your on-site thermometer checks are accurate, traceable, and compliant. Unlike the traditional method of using ice and boiling water, the LazaPort8 is safe and efficient. It also involves minimal set-up, so should save your team a lot of time and hassle.

1. Insert the temperature probes into LazaPort8’s blocks and allow time for the readings to stabilise. The LazaPort8 allows you to check up to eight probes simultaneously.

2. Make a note of the serial number on the back of each thermometer.

3. Record the readings generated by each thermometer, alongside the reference reading displayed on the LazaPort8. 

4. For each thermometer, compare the two readings (the one on the thermometer and the one on the LazaPort8) and confirm if the device has passed or failed the check. 

5. Remove the temperature probes from the blocks and allow them to return to ambient temperature. This helps to avoid thermal shock and extends the lifespan of your sensors.

6. Switch the temperature probes to the other block (cold to hot and hot to cold). Wait for the readings to stabilise before recording them on the digital checklist.
