7.8.12.1 NO Working Standard Traced to NIST NO Standard
First, use the NIST-traceable NO standard and the GPT calibration procedure to calibrate the
NO, NO
, and NO
x
Refer to the calibration procedure described in Section 7.8.4.2.
Then, generate several NO concentrations by diluting the NO working standard. Use the nominal
NO cylinder concentration, [NO]
NO response (in ppm) versus the nominal diluted NO concentration and determine the slope,
S
. Calculate the NO concentration of the working standard [NO]

A procedure is presented in the TAD in Reference 2.
