9. CALIBRATION PROCEDURES
This section describes the calibration procedures for the GFC7001T/GFC7001TM. All
of the methods described in this section can be initiated and controlled through the COM
ports.
IMPORTANT IMPACT ON READINGS OR DATA
If you are using the GFC7001T/GFC7001TM for US-EPA controlled
monitoring, refer to Section 10 for information on the EPA calibration
protocol.
Note Throughout this section are various diagrams showing pneumatic
connections between the GFC7001T/GFC7001TM and various other pieces
of equipment such as calibrators and zero air sources.
These diagrams are only intended to be schematic representations of
these connections and do not reflect actual physical locations of
equipment and fitting location or orientation.
Contact your regional EPA or other appropriate governing agency for
more detailed recommendations.
9.1. CALIBRATION PREPARATIONS
The calibration procedures in this section assume that the range mode, analog range and
units of measure have already been selected for the analyzer. If this has not been done,
please do so before continuing (see Section 5.7 for instructions).
9.1.1. REQUIRED EQUIPMENT, SUPPLIES, AND EXPENDABLES
Calibration of the GFC7001T/GFC7001TM Analyzer requires specific equipment and
supplies. These include, but are not limited to, the following:
 Zero-air source
 Span gas source
 Gas lines - All Gas lines should be PTFE (Teflon), FEP, glass, stainless steel or
brass
 A recording device such as a strip-chart recorder and/or data logger (optional) (For
electronic documentation, the internal data acquisition system DAS can be used).
 Traceability Standards
