ACCESSORIES
Computer
The MicroFID II will send information stored in its logged memory or will continuously stream data to a
computer or PDA via Bluetooth wireless communication. This feature may be used if you need to prepare
reports based on the MicroFID II recorded data.
Information prepared on a PC such as “routing or tag information” may be uploaded to the MicroFID II via
Bluetooth as well.
WARNING
The MicroFID II is not classified for use in hazardous locations with non-
intrinsically safe rated computers.
Gas Sampling Bag
A gas sampling bag can be used for calibration of the MicroFID II. If you are unsure of the quality of
ambient air you should use an additional gas bag filled with zero air. Connect the sample bag to the inlet
fitting with the gas bag adapter. See Calibration section for more information.
One sampling bag is included in the MicroFID II calibration kit Part No. MX396011. Additional gas bags
are also available (Part No. MX396017).
Charcoal Filters
A charcoal filter (Part No.MX396022, package of 10) may be connected to the MicroFID II during
calibration and sampling to provide clean air to the MicroFID II. The filter will remove hydrocarbon
contamination from room air to provide zero grade air to the MicroFID II.
NOTE: The charcoal filter does not filter methane or ethane. If these compounds are present, you should
use a gas bag with a supply of commercial zero air for calibration purposes.
