Factory Calibration; Field Calibration - Super Systems DP 2000 Operation Manual

DP2000 Portable Dew Point Analyzer Operations Manual
sensor is not being exposed to excessive heat. If these periodic checks show a
high sensor temperature, then the length of sample tubing should be increased
to allow for adequate cooling of the sample before it passes the sensor tip.
Continuous operation of the DP2000 Dew Point Analyzer will lead to premature
failure, since many the internal components are not designed for uninterrupted
use. If continuous monitoring of Dew Points is required, please contact Super
Systems, Inc. at 513-772-0060 to inquire about products intended specifically for
this application.
FACTORY CALIBRATION –
Factory calibration is recommended every six months if the unit is used
regularly. SSI's calibration is NIST traceable and includes a numbered
"Certificate of Calibration". This certificate also indicates the accuracy of the
analyzer before and after calibration. Please contact Super Systems, Inc. at
for more information regarding this service.

FIELD CALIBRATION –
It is also possible to calibrate the DP2000 in the field, which will require the
optional calibration kit (Part Number 31030). The instructions for a field
calibration are shown here, however please feel free to contact Super Systems at
if you would like to review the process with us before you begin.

The calibration kit consists of two bottles of saturated salt solution in which each
bottle generates a precise relative humidity percentage (R.H. %) value. One
bottle is 11.3% R.H., and the other is 75.3% R.H. These two specific calibration
points are already pre-programmed into the microprocessor board.
1.0 Open the unit
1.1 Remove the aluminum faceplate of the DP2000 by removing the
single allen-head cap screw located at the bottom front of the
faceplate. After the screw has been removed, carefully lift the front of
the faceplate and slide it towards you about an inch. After the
faceplate has been removed, it can temporarily be rested in the lid of
the open case, to allow access to the components inside. This plate
will still be connected to the interior circuit boards, so care should be
taken to maintain all existing connections.
