Teledyne API Model 300M CO Analyzer Instruction Manual, 04033, Rev. A

3.1.3 Dual Range Calibration

If the analyzer is being operated in Dual Range mode or Auto-Ranging mode, then the High and Low ranges must be independently calibrated. When the analyzer is in Dual or Auto Range mode you will be prompted to enter the range to calibrate whenever you enter a calibration command from the front panel. Press HIGH or LOW followed by ENTR button to proceed with the calibration. To calibrate the other range you must exit to the sample menu and restart the calibration. See Section 4.6 for more information on the Range Modes. The following procedure shows an example of how to calibrate the two ranges with calibration gas coming in through the sample port:

1.

Press CAL

Analyzer enters M-P calibration mode. Calibration gas

 

 

source should be set to deliver zero gas to the sample

 

 

port.

 

 

 

2.

Press LOW-ENTR

Select range to calibrate.

 

 

 

3.

Wait 15 min.

Wait for CO reading to stabilize at zero value.

 

 

 

4.

Press ZERO-ENTR

Changes calibration equations for Low range so

 

 

analyzer will read zero.

 

 

 

5.

Press CONC

Enter span gas concentration for Low range.

 

 

 

6.

Key in span concentration

Enter span gas concentration for Low Range. Set

 

 

calibration gas source to deliver span concentration.

7.

Press ENTR

 

 

 

 

8.

Wait 15 min.

Wait for CO reading to stabilize at span value.

 

 

 

9.

Press SPAN-ENTR

Changes calibration equations for Low range so

 

 

analyzer will read span value.

 

 

 

10.

Press EXIT

Exits back to sample menu.

 

 

 

Repeat steps 1-10 for High range.
