    15 February 2006 DRUM UNIT Drum Potential Sensor Calibration The potential sensor output is affected by the distance of the sensor from the OPC, paper dust or other matter on the surface of the sensor, and environmental conditions. For these reasons, the potential sensor is calibrated often, as described below.
