6-2.How to calibration 

    Perform gas calibration at new installation, 6 months maintenance and sensor replacement. 

 
6-2-1.Required kit and tools for calibration 

  Prepare following jigs and tools to perform zero and span adjustments. 

 

Calibration gas (standard gas for zero and span) 

 

Gas sampling bag for calibration gas. 

 

Gas sampling bag for exhaust gas. 

 

Suction pump to lead calibration gas 

 

Flow meter with flow control valve (enable to control 1.0L/min). 

 
6-2-2.Performing a zero adjustment 

 

Pack the zero gas (Nitrogen more than 99.9 vol %) into gas sampling bag. 

 

Disconnect piping for both gas inlet and gas outlet of this unit. 

 

Connect flow meter  (with flow control valve)  and suction pump to the detector head. Turn on the 
pump and adjust the reading of flow meter to 1.0±0.3L/min. 

 

Connect  gas  sampling  bag  for  calibration  to  the  IN  side  of  the pump  and  gas  sampling  bag  for 
exhaust gas to the outlet of this unit respectively. 

 

After  reading  by  indicator/alarm  unit  gets  stable,  adjust  the  reading  to  zero  with  respective 
potentiometer of indicator/alarm unit. 

 

Stop  the  supply  of  zero  gas,  disconnect  gas  sampling  bag  for  calibration  and  confirm  that  the 
oxygen reading returns to 20.9vol %. 

 

Return disconnected piping to where they were (completion of zero adjustment). 

 
6-2-3.Performing a span adjustment 

 

Pack the span gas (fresh air for oxygen deficiency alarm instrument and their concentration is 
around preset alarm level for other purpose) into gas sampling bag.      For simple calibration, you 
may be possible to use an ambient air as span gas      containing 20.9vol% O

2

 providing that the 

ambient pressure is 1 atm (1000±50hPa)      and contamination in air is negligible against span gas 
concentration. 

 

  Disconnect piping for both gas inlet and gas outlet of this unit. 

 

Connect flowmeter  (with flow control valve)  and suction pump to the detector head. Turn on the 
pump and adjust the reading of flowmeter to 1.0±0.3L/min. 

 

Connect gas sampling bag  for calibration to the IN side of the pump and gas sampling bag for 
exhaust gas to the outlet of this unit respectively. 

 

After reading by indicator/alarm unit gets stable, adjust the reading to the span gas concentration 
with respective potentiometer of indicator/alarm unit. 

 

Stop  the  supply  of  span  gas,  disconnect  gas  sampling  bag  for  calibration  and  confirm  that  the 
oxygen reading is 20.9vol %. 

 

Return disconnected piping to where they were (Completion of span adjustment).
