ACCURACY
&
CALIBRATION
The Airtec System when used in accordance with tube instructions provides an accuracy
of
±25%.
The flow meter is factory calibrated and should not require recalibration with normal use
and proper care of the unit.
Should a calibration check be required, the unit may be returned to the factory, or
calibration may be checked using a soap film bubble meter.

* Oil Mist test may be run 1000 scc/min for 20 min as indicated in tube instructions.
Flow rates over 500 scc/min require a high range flow meter. However, Nextteq’s
Regulator has a maximum flow rate of 500 scc/min, so the oil mist tubes should run at a
500 scc/min for 40 minutes.
All tubes have a Temperature Range of 4-40
°C.
