The Zero and Span Functions

The Model 5000BF can have as many as three analysis ranges plus a
special calibration range (Cal Range). Calibrating any one of the ranges will
automatically calibrate the other ranges.
CAUTION: Always allow 4-5 hours warm-up time before calibrating, if
your analyzer has been disconnected from its power source.
This does not apply if the analyzer was plugged in but was in
STANDBY.
The analyzer is calibrated using zero, and span fluides.
Note: Shut off the fluid pressure before connecting it to the analyzer, and
be sure to limit pressure to 40 psig or less when turning it back on.
Readjust the fluid pressure into the analyzer until the flowrate through
the Sample Cell settles between 50 to 200 cc/min (approximately 0.1 to 0.4
SCFH).
Note: Always keep the calibration fluid flow as close to the flowrate of the
sample fluid as possible
