  • Page 12: Calibration (O Measurement)

    3. Calibration (O measurement) The calibration process adjusts the instrument measured value so that the span point and zero point during O measurement match the sensor output when the reference gases (atmosphere, nitrogen) were measured. Perform span calibration once a day before starting measurements. Ideally, span calibration Span calibration should be performed when the temperature of the oxygen sensor and temperature sensor are sufficiently stable, such as first thing in the morning before operating the air conditioning...
  • Page 13: Zero Calibration

    To accurately measure low concentrations when measuring O , use nitrogen gas for calibration. Zero calibration Set the needle so it can suction the nitrogen gas. Press The MENU screen opens, and “CAL” is selected (flashes). Press The O CAL screen opens. * If even one measurement has been taken, the previous measured value will display.
  • Page 14: Measurement And Recording

    4. Measurement and recording Preparing to measure • It may not be possible to measure if the sample gas quantity is less than 10mL. • A measurement can be taken even if the inside of the sample is depressurized, but if the package’s internal pressure is less than -30kPa, a correct measurement value may not be obtained.
  • Page 15: O /Co /Co

    Measurement (Auto mode) The measurement starts automatically when is pressed. Refer to the section “Switching the measurement mode” (page 4 ) for details on switching between the auto mode and manual mode. When the Measurement Standby screen is displayed, press The measurement starts, and the Stability Decision screen opens.
  • Page 16 The measured value is not automatically saved in the internal memory. Using the Memory function following steps, up to 300 values can be saved and retained in the internal memory. When 300 values are exceeded, the oldest data is automatically deleted. Press on the Measurement Complete screen.

    Setting the time [TIME SET] Set the time if the displayed time has deviated. When the Measurement Standby screen is displayed, press The MENU screen opens. Immediately after opening, “CAL” is selected (flashes). Press The cursor moves, and “SET” is selected (flashes). Press The SETTING MENU screen opens.

  • Page 22: Checking For Clogging [Clog Check]

    Checking for clogging [CLOG CHECK] If the gas path, such as the needle or tubing, is clogged, the gas cannot be suctioned properly, and correct measurement cannot be made. A clogging check is performed to check for any clogging. The clogging check makes a decision using the pressure sensor that is built into the gas path. If the gas path is not clogged, the pressure will be between 0 and -5kPa.
  • Page 23 Follow the on-screen instructions and steps below to check for clogging. <Example 1> To check for clogging in the needle (1) Expose the tip of the needle to the atmosphere and press The pump operates for 5 seconds and decides whether there is clogging. Does not change from “-40.3kPa”...

    Use this function if the measured value is incorrect after calibration. It resets the Initialization [INITIALIZE] display setting, O calibration value, CO disable setting, upper limit setting, calibration value, measurement mode, and output setting to the factory default settings. The initialization will reset any arbitrary settings to the factory default settings.

  • Page 27: Upper Limit Setting [Up Limit Set]

    Upper limit setting [UP LIMIT SET] When measuring a sample with a high O concentration and a high CO concentration, the upper limit can be set to 100% so that the total of the O measurement value and CO measurement value does not exceed 100%. When the upper limit is set, the amount exceeding the 100% total is subtracted from the CO value and displayed.

Each time is pressed, the cursor will move between * The display on the left shows the upper limit setting set to “OFF”. Select , and press The upper limit setting complete screen opens, and the setting of the CO disable is completed.
  • Page 29: Co 2 Calibration [Co 2 Cal]

    Calibration [CO CAL] If the displayed CO measurement value is abnormal, the deviation can be calibrated with CO calibration. Prepare CO standard gas (15 to 90% CO ) with a random concentration. Set the concentration in the PACK LEADER and calibrate. Ideally, the calibration should be performed when the CO sensor temperature is sufficiently stable in the measurement environment.
