Sensor response qualification: Attain 90% FS within 60 seconds. Checkpoint • A longer bump test is inherently more accurate, as response is extended over a wider scale range. • Test time will be increased, so more test gas will be consumed. www.trolex.com P5593.1600 Rev B...
6.5 Calibrate There are two methods of calibration using calibrated test gas: 1. Use a Trolex TX7005 Universal Docking Station 2. Manual calibration using the standard test gas hood supplied with the instrument. • The test gas concentration values must be initially set up and must concur with the values marked on the gas canister.
