FAQ

Model GFC7000TA Carbon Dioxide Analyzer

Q:Where is the sintered filter/sample flow control orifice?

A: These components are located inside the flow control assembly that is attached to the inlet side of the sample pump, see Figure 3-3. See Section 11.6.1 for instructions on disassembly and replacement.

Q:How do I set up a SEQUENCE to run a nightly calibration check? A: The setup of this option is located in Section 7.6.

Q:How do I set the analog output signal range and offset?

A: Instructions for this can be found in Section 6.13.4 which describes analog I/O configuration.

Q:What is the averaging time for an GFC 7000TA?

A: The default averaging time, optimized for ambient pollution monitoring, is 150 seconds for stable concentrations and 10 seconds for rapidly changing concentrations; See Section10.5.1 for more information. However, it is adjustable over a range of 0.5 second to 200 seconds (please contact customer service for more information).
