The System Accuracy Test is performed on-site to ensure the accuracy of furnace controls and recorders across control zones, comparing the furnace temperature against a separate test instrument.
"It is very important to track the results from these tests since the information changes over time. When conducted properly, this simple test helps the heat treaters to take preventive actions and maintain a reliable temperature system." ~ Victor Zacarias
The above infographic (reproduced below) demonstrates how often to perform the SAT on furnace controls for processing parts for aerospace applications.
