8.2 MULTI-POINT CALIBRATION

For minimum back-diffusion through the vent and for minimum back-pressure in the manifold, the following relationship should be met:

Qv x L

⎯⎯⎯⎯ = 500 Qa x D

Where Qv is the vent flow in cc/min

Qa is the Analyzer flow in cc/min

L is the vent line length in inches

D is the ID of the vent line in inches

For Qv of 1000 cc/min

Qa of 800 cc/min

D of .188 inches

L = approximately 72”

8.2 MULTI-POINT CALIBRATION

Multi-point calibration requires seven approximately equally-spaced calibration points, including zero, using an NIST-traceable CO source.

The calibration must be carried out:

a.Prior to field operation as an EPA-DESIGNATED REFERENCE METHOD

b.After maintenance

c.Every three months (recommended)

NOTE

THE TEST GAS MUST BE INTRODUCED INTO THE

ANALYZER THROUGH THE SAMPLE INLET PORT.

ALL FLOW MEASUREMENT DEVICES MUST BE

CALIBRATED AGAINST AN NIST-TRACEABLE

STANDARD SUCH AS A BUBBLE-FLOW-METER WHICH

HAS BEEN CALIBRATED AGAINST AN NIST-

TRACEABLE VOLUME STANDARD.

FAQ

What are the requirements for minimum back-diffusion and back-pressure?

The relationship Qv x L = 500 Qa x D should be met, where Qv is the vent flow, Qa is the analyzer flow, L is the vent line length, and D is the ID of the vent line.

How often should multi-point calibration be carried out?

Multi-point calibration is recommended prior to field operation, after maintenance, and every three months.

What is the recommended CO source for calibration?

An NIST-traceable CO source should be used for multi-point calibration.
