6.2 Calibration “CAL”

Be sure to perform calibration in the measurement mode after the warm-up operation ends.

Calibration cannot be performed during the warm-up operation. If an error occurs during calibration,

that calibration will be invalid, and keys other than the [MODE] key become invalid. Hold down the

[MODE] key for 2 seconds to return to the beginning of the calibration “CAL” and press the [MODE]

key again to return to the measurement state.
With respect to the calibration methods of the OX400, there are four types of method.
1) 3-point (All) calibration “ALL”

By performing calibration at the three points of 10 ppm, 1000 ppm, and Air, the linearity for the

entire zone between 0-10 ppm and 100% O

2

is guaranteed. Gas used for calibration is restricted

to the ranges of O

2

concentration as follows.

(1) 8 ppm ≤10 ppm gas ≤ 20 ppm

(2) 800 ppm ≤1000 ppm gas ≤ 2000 ppm

(3) O

2

concentration in Air: 20.6% (Normal air is within this range)

NOTE: Be sure to use gas that meets conditions (1), (2), and (3) for calibration.

2) 2-point calibration “2Pnt”

Select zero and span calibration points in the measurement range you will use to perform

calibration. However, gas used for calibration is restricted to the ranges of O

2

concentration as

follows.

(1) Zero gas is 8%FS or more.

(2) Span gas is less than 120%FS.

(3) Between zero and span of the smallest range must be more than 20%FS of the MANUAL

range.

Example 1: Two points of 1 ppm and 3 ppm in the 10 ppm range

Example 2: Two points of 20 ppm and 40 ppm in the 100 ppm range

< When the range is more than 1000 ppm.>

(1) Zero gas is 800 ppm or more.

(2) Span gas is 100%FS or less.

(3) Between zero and span of the smallest range must be more than 2000 ppm.

Example 3: Two points of 0.6% and 0.8% in the 1% range

Example 4: Two points of 20.6% and 90% in the 100% range

3) 1-point calibration “1Pnt”

Principally, 1-point calibration allows obtaining an accurate concentration in an area near the

calibration point, but the error may become greater as the distance from the calibration point

increases. This is a useful calibration method when it is used in some limited areas. Select

one point in an area as close to the concentration you want to measure as possible to perform
