Calibration

If the sensor’s output is too low to be usable, then the message “Bad Calibration Sensor End of Life, Entry Not Saved” will appear. The sen- sor will now be marked as being BAD in the DIAGNOSTICS screen.

NOTE: H2 calibration can be bypassed by pressing the ESC button, after which the CALIBRATION LIST screen is re-dis- played. Skip to Step 10 if the ESC button was pressed.

6.Turn OFF the regulator of calibration fixture and remove the CO cylinder.

7.Attach a combination 1,000 ppm CO and 1,000 ppm H2 cylinder to the regulator of the calibration fixture, and then use the and buttons to enter an Applied value that exactly equals the CO concentration stamped on the cylinder.

TEST GAS CO/H2

Enter CO VALUE 1000 PPM

8.Adjust the regulator for a flowmeter indica- tion of approximately 2 SCFH, and then press ENT to display the CALIBRATE H2 screen.

The calibration range is from 400 to 1,500 ppm. An attempt to cali- brate outside this range will cause the message “Bad Calibration Wrong CAL Entry” to appear in the following step.

9.Wait until the Measured reading stabilizes (approximately 3 minutes), and then press ENT to calibrate the H2 Measured value to that of the Applied value; after which the message “Good Calibration” should briefly appear followed by the CALIBRATION LIST screen being re-displayed.
