2. process control
3. equipment
4. level of visible light
5. level of black light
6. field strength
7. orientation/direction of field
8. residual field strength

Question 2

Sensitivity level is influenced by these three major factors:

Answer 2

1. field strength and direction
2. current level
3. control of the particles

Question 3

When should equipment calibrations and performance checks be implemented?

Answer 3

6 month intervals or whenever it is seen that equipment is not functioning properly

Question 4

Performance checks should be performed on a ____, _____, basis in order to ______________.

Answer 4

regular, scheduled basis in order to maintain proper equipment functionality and ensure uniform/expected results.
