Alarm 7: Span Calibration Coefficient Alarm
In calibration, this alarm is generated when the span gas correction ratio is out of the range of 0 ± 18%
(refer to Section 9.1.3, “Compensation”).
The following are suspected as the cause:
(1) The oxygen concentration of the span gas does not agree with the value of the span gas set
“Calibration setup.”
(2) The flow of the span gas is out of the specified flow value (600 ± 60 ml/min).
(3) The cell assembly is damaged and the cell voltage is abnormal.
(1) Confirm the following and carry out calibration again:
If the items are not within their proper states, correct them.
a. If the display “Span gas conc.” is selected in “Calibration setup,” the set value should agree
with the concentration of span gas actually used.
b. The calibration gas tubing should be constructed so that the span gas does not leak.
(2) If no alarm is generated as a result of carrying out re-calibration, it is suspected that improper
calibration conditions were the cause of the alarm in the preceding calibration. In this case, no
specific restoration is necessary.
(3) If an alarm is generated again as a result of carrying out re-calibration, deterioration of or
damage to the cell (sensor) is suspected as the cause of the alarm. Replacement of the cell with
a new one is necessary. However, before replacement, carry out the procedure described in step
(3) and later of
Zero Calibration Coefficient Alarm.”

Alarm 8: EMF Stabilization Time Over
This alarm is generated if the sensor (cell) voltage has not stabilized even after the calibration time is
up for the reason that the calibration gas (zero gas or span gas) has not filled the sensor assembly of
the detector.
(1) The flow of the calibration gas is less than normal (a specified flow of 600 ± 60 ml/min).
(2) The length or thickness of the calibration gas tubing has been changed (lengthened or
thickened).
(3) The measuring gas flows toward the tip of the probe.
(4) The sensor (cell) response has deteriorated.
(1) Carry out calibration by passing the calibration gas at the specified flow (600 ± 60 ml/min) after
checking that there is no leakage in the tubing.
(2) If calibration is carried out normally, perform a steady operation without changing the conditions.
If the error occurs again, check whether or not the reason is applicable to the following and then
replace the sensor assembly.
• A lot of dust and the like may be sticking to the tip of the sensor. If dust is found, clean and
remove the dust (see Section 11.1.1).
