Teledyne 9110T instruction manual 4. NO2 Conversion Efficiency CE

Model 9110TH NOx Analyzer Calibration Procedures

∙Data recording devices should be capable of bi-polar operation so that negative readings can be recorded.

For electronic data recording, the 9110T provides an internal data acquisition system (DAS), which is described in detail in Section 7.

APICOM, a remote control program, is also provided as a convenient and powerful tool for data handling, download, storage, quick check and plotting (see Sections 7.2.1, and the APICOM software manual downloadable from:

http://www,tekedtbe-api.com/manuals ).

9.1.4. NO2 CONVERSION EFFICIENCY (CE)

In order for the NO2 converter to function properly, oxygen must be present in the sample stream. In addition, to ensure accurate operation of the 9110T, it is important to check the NO2 conversion efficiency (CE) periodically and to update this value as necessary.

∙See Section 12.7.10 for instructions on checking or calculating the current NO2  NO converter efficiency using 9110T’s onboard firmware.

∙See Section 12.7.11 for instructions on checking or calculating the current NO2  NO converter efficiency using a simplified Gas Phase Titration Method.

9.2.MANUAL CALIBRATION CHECKS AND CALIBRATION OF THE 9110T ANALYZER IN ITS BASE CONFIGURATION

IMPORTANT	IMPACT ON READINGS OR DATA
	ZERO/SPAN CALIBRATION CHECKS VS. ZERO/SPAN CALIBRATION
	Pressing the ENTR button during the following procedure resets the
	stored values for OFFSET and SLOPE and alters the instrument’s
	Calibration.
	This should ONLY BE DONE during an actual calibration of the 9110T.
	NEVER press the ENTR button if you are only checking calibration..
