Hi
I wanted to know if there was an industry standard for what are acceptable fluctuations in temperature from the setpoint of one thermocouple and betweeen all thermocouples in the same autoclave chamber. I usually come across +/- 1C for one location and +/- 2C between locations. I’m using Type T TCs and currently experiencing fluctuations of 1-2C in the same location and 1-2.5C between all locations. Either my acceptance criteria is not correct or there is a reason for getting high fluctuations.The TCs are placed in agar which might account for the fluctuations?
