Model 42i Trace Level Instruction Manual
Perform the following pre-calibration procedure before calibrating the
Model 42i Trace Level. For detailed information about the menu
parameters and the icons used in these procedures, see the "Operation"
chapter.
Note The calibration and calibration check duration times should be long
enough to account for the transition (purge) process when switching from
sample to zero and from zero to span. This transition time is the time
required to purge the existing air.
Depending on the plumbing configuration and the instrument, data from
approximately the first minute of a zero calibration or check should be
disregarded because of residual sample air. Also, data from approximately
the first minute of a span calibration or check should be disregarded
because the span is mixing with the residual zero air.
