  • Page 7: Oxygen Detector

    The plug-in sensor is secured in the detector assembly by the housing cap. Through a series of chemical and electrical reactions, the sensor produces a millivolt output that corresponds to the detection range of the transmitter. 65-2321RK Oxygen Transmitter • 3 1.800.544.2843 www.calcert.com...
  • Page 8: Amplifier

    Use the cover on the front of the junction box to access the interior of the junction box. The detector and amplifier are factory installed in the junction box. Three spacers installed on the back of the junction box control the distance of the junction box 4 • 65-2321RK Oxygen Transmitter 1.800.544.2843 www.calcert.com...

  • Page 12: Startup

    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.
