3.6.2 Zero Calibration

Zero calibration requires the use of a prepared gas known to be free

of the gas species to be analyzed. If possible, the calibration gas should
be the background gas used in your application.

Note: This instrument was assembled and calibrated at the

factory using a specific background gas determined at the
time of purchase to be representative of the customer’s
application. Specific data has been pre-programmed into
the transmitter that is used by the system to linearize the
output signal generated by the sensor. If a different gas is
used, the resulting output signal may not be linear with
concentration. You also may experience difficulty in
