Figure 4: Wiring the Oxygen Transmitter to a Controller 12. If shielded cable is used, connect the cable’s drain wire to an available chassis (earth) ground at the controller. RKI controllers typically have a ground stud that can be used to ground the cable’s drain wire.
The procedure below describes applying zero emission air, usually called zero air, using a calibration kit that includes a calibration cup, calibration gas, sample tubing, and a fixed flow regulator with an on/off knob. RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends using a 0.5 LPM (liters per minute) fixed flow regulator.
Set a voltmeter to read in the millivolt (mV) range. Plug the voltmeter leads into the test points on the amplifier. Plug the positive lead into the red + test point; plug the negative lead into the black - test point. 65-2322RK Oxygen Transmitter • 9...

Install the detector and controller terminals strips into their sockets on the new amplifier as shown in Figure 4 on page 7. If controller leads or detector leads were removed during this procedure, refer to Figure 4 on page 7 for the detector and 12 • 65-2322RK Oxygen Transmitter...
It describes calibration using a calibration kit that includes a calibration cup, calibration gas, sample tubing, and a fixed flow regulator with an on/off knob. RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends using a 0.5 LPM (liters per minute) fixed flow regulator.
Turn the regulator knob clockwise to close the regulator. Unscrew the regulator from the calibration cylinder. Unscrew the calibration cup from the detector housing cap. NOTE: For convenience, leave the regulator and calibration cup connected by the sample tubing. 14 • 65-2322RK Oxygen Transmitter...
