13. For multi-point calibration, generate five SO2 concentrations equally
spaced between zero and the concentration above. Record instrument
reading for each concentration after allowing time for both gas
generation system and instrument to stabilize. Plot a graph of
instrument readings against the SO2 concentrations generated. This is
the instrument calibration curve. All future measurements should be
interpreted using this curve.
Regulations typically require multipoint calibration when the instrument is
newly installed, moved, repaired, interrupted for more than a few days, or
when span or zero shift by more than 15%.
All gas must be supplied to the instrument at atmospheric pressure. It may
be necessary to employ an atmospheric bypass plumbing arrangement to
Mode
accomplish this.
If a filter is used, all gas must enter the instrument through the filter.
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
