Calibration

17.1 OMD-2008 Series

15 ppm Bilge Alarms built according MEPC.107(49) have to be protected against access
beyond the checks of instrument drift, repeatability of the instrument reading and zero
adjustment. For this reason, the instrument is electronically sealed, so that only the
manufacturer or his authorized persons, equipped with the related tools, are able to get
access for changing the calibration.
To provide a simple procedure to check the instrument aboard ship, the OMD-2008 Series
is constructed in that way, that the zero check also confirms the instrument drift within
the specifications.

17.2 Calibration and Repeatability Check

a) Switch off the power supply and stop any water flow.
b) Clean the Sample Glass Tube accurately by using a suitable Cell Cleaning Brush as
described under Section 13.
c) Run clean water through the instrument.
d) Make sure that non-aerated, clean water is in the instrument. The reading should be
0 ppm ± 2 ppm.
e) Continue as described under Section 12.
