The following describes procedures for performing a multipoint calibration of the 42iQ. The information described here is considered adequate to perform the calibration. However, if greater detail is desired, the user is referred to the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Part 50, Appendix F.
● Gas phase titrator ● Zero Gas Generator A zero air source, such as a Thermo Scientific 111iQ Zero Air Supply, free of contaminants such as NO, NO , and O is required for dilution, calibration, and gas phase titration.
Hydrocarbons Molecular Sieve (4A), Activated Charcoal and NO Activated Charcoal Gas Phase Titrator A gas phase titrator (GPT), such as is included in the Thermo Scientific 146iQ Multi-gas Calibrator, is used to generate NO concentrations from NO concentrations. Figure 4–1 shows the suggested placement of the component parts of a gas phase titration apparatus.
The reaction chamber used for the reaction of ozone with excess NO should have sufficient volume so that the residence time meets the requirements specified in this chapter. Mixing Chamber The mixing chamber is used to provide thorough mixing of the reaction products and diluent air. 42iQ Instruction Manual Thermo Scientific...
Use the following procedure to calculate the NO concentration standard and NO impurity. Against a NIST-traceable NO Standard 1.

F Pre-Calibration Perform the following pre-calibration procedure before calibrating the 42iQ. 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 sample to zero and from zero to span.
The instrument should give identical responses to the test gases whether they are introduced via the SAMPLE port or the ZERO IN or SPAN ports. If not, the plumbing and/or valves should be serviced. Thermo Scientific 42iQ Instruction Manual...

Chapter 9, “Optional Equipment”. Common The common electronics contain the core computational and power routing hardware for the 42iQ, and is replicated throughout other iQ series Electronics products (Figure 8–1). It also contains front panel display, the USB ports, the Ethernet port, and the optional I/O interfaces (RS-485, analog, and digital).
All electronics operate from a universal VDC supply, which is capable of auto-sensing the input voltage and working over all specified operating ranges. The 42iQ contains a 24 VDC channel for most electronics operation, including the pump and fan, and a 48 VDC channel dedicated specifically for optical bench heating.
Upstream pressure is ambient, while downstream pressure allows determination of flow. A single PCBA with microprocessor provides the active controls for the pressure measurements, performs flow determination, and generates registers that interact with the higher level system controls.

Lag Volume The 42iQ is available with the following Lag Volume option. Principle of The 42iQ is based on the principle that nitric oxide (NO) and ozone react to produce a characteristic luminescence with an intensity linearly Operation proportional to the NO concentration. Infrared light emission results when electronically excited NO molecules decay to lower energy states.
Optional Equipment Lag Volume The 42iQ stores the NO signal obtained during the first half of the solenoid cycle, determines the NO signal during the second half of the solenoid cycle, and then calculates and updates a NO, NO , and NO signal every 10 seconds.
Assurance Handbook for Air Pollution Measurement Systems (Volume II). Figure 9–11 shows how this option is integrated with the 42iQ components. During normal operation, the pump draws zero air through the permeation oven and out the instrument exhaust. When performing a single point span check, the sample valve is energized, closing the sample valve, and the Perm valve is energized, opening the perm valve.
