9. Select the algorithm type from the Curve Fitting drop-down menu. This algorithm will be used

to calibrate your sensor system. See the

Calibration Requirements for Oxygen Sensors

section for

more information on algorithms

You have configured the system for calibration. Proceed to the next section to calibrate your standards.

Calibrating Standards

Procedure

1. Enter information for the first standard in the Calibration Table. The first standard should have

0% oxygen concentration, such as in a nitrogen flow or in a solution of sodium hydrosulfite.
Enter 0 in the Concentration column of the Calibration Table.

2. Leave the oxygen probe in the standard for at least 5 minutes. This guarantees equilibrium.

3. Move your cursor to the Intensity column.

4. Click the green Scan Standard button or select Spectrometer | Scan Standard from the menu.

Note

Enabling the optional Continuous function, located to the right of the Scan Standard button,
will allow you to receive continuous intensity values of a standard. To use this function, check the
Continuous box.
