4.1 Perform a Calibration

We recommend to perform at least a zero
calibration, after startup of the instrument, to
ensure proper measuring results.
The following steps describe, how to perform a
manual calibration. If your instrument features
a valve block, X-STREAM Enhanced Se-
ries instruction manual for a comprehensive
description of calibration procedures.
Note!
To achieve best and proper measuring re-
sults, it is recommended to perform zero and
span calibrations on a regular weekly basis.
Also, a zero calibration must always precede
a span calibration!
Zero calibration
To perform a zero calibration supply either
nitrogen (N ) or another suitable zero gas
2
[conditioned ambient air or industrial air (NOT
for oxygen measurement!)] to the gas path.
The concentration of the component of inter-
est is specified as set point and during zero
calibration, the actual value is assigned this
concentration.

Span calibration
Supply span gases with concentrations of
80 % to 110 % of the upper measuring range
limit to the gas path. (Using lower concentra-
tions may decrease accuracy when measu-
ring above the span gas concentration) The
concentration of the component of interest
is specified as set point, and during span
calibration the actual value is assigned this
concentration!
Note!
If the oxygen concentration is known, ambi-
ent air may be used for an oxygen channel
span calibration.
