| General description: | MVP ICON® ATP Calibrator Set consists of two calibration devices (“rods”) that are used for performance verification and calibration of the MVP ICON® and MVP systems. The luminescent calibrator consists of a 14C radioactive source that emits a very low level (5 x 105 d.p.m., or 0.225 microcuries) of low-energy ß-radiation in a plastic scintillation matrix. This matrix is configured to give constant light output, within 10 % of its original value, at a sufficiently high level to make consistent verification and calibration functions possible over the five‐year life of the calibrator. The non‐luminescent black plastic calibrator provides a reliable low‐end or “dark” source reading. |

| Principle: | The luminescent calibrator consists of a 14C radioactive source that emits a very low level (5 x 105 d.p.m., or 0.225 microcuries) of low energy ß radiation in a plastic scintillation matrix. This matrix is configured to give constant light output, within 10% of its original value, at a sufficiently high level to make consistent verification and calibration functions possible over the five- year life of the calibrator. The non-luminescent black plastic calibrator provides a reliable low-end or “dark” source reading. |
| Storage and Stability: | To ensure the stability and longevity of the luminescent calibrator, the following precautions must be taken: • Limit Exposure to Light. • Store the luminescent calibrator in the dark or weak ambient light. • If the luminescent calibrator is exposed to bright light before use, insert it in the MVP ICON® or MVP and wait a minimum of 2 minutes before proceeding. • The kit box provided is recommended as an appropriate dark storage. • Do not expose to direct sunlight or intense artificial light before use. |
