Section 11.3.3 provides leak check instructions.
Sample flow is measured by attaching a calibrated rotameter, wet test
meter, or other flow-measuring device to the sample inlet port when the
instrument is operating. The sample flow should be 800 cm
See Section 11.3.4.
Typical lifetime is about 2-3 years.
Any analyzer with zero/span valve or IZS option can be automatically
calibrated using the instrument's AutoCal feature. The setup of this
option is located in Section 9.4.
Yes. However, whereas this may be acceptable for basic calibration
checks, the IZS option is not permitted as a calibration source in
applications following US EPA protocols.
To achieve highest accuracy, it is recommended to use cylinders of
calibrated span gases in combination with a zero air source.
A: The default averaging time, optimized for ambient pollution
monitoring, is 150 seconds for stable concentrations and 10 seconds for
rapidly changing concentrations (see Section 13.5.1 for more
information).
However, it is adjustable over a range of 0.5 second to 200 seconds
