may adversely affect product performance.
When performing a calibration or calibration verification test (bump test) only use
•
certified calibration gas at the required concentration level.
• Do not test with expired calibration gas.
• Do not cover or obstruct display or visual alarm cover.
• Ensure sensor inlets are unobstructed and are free of debris
Failure to follow instructions outlined in this user manual can result in sickness or death.
• When performing a calibration or calibration verification test (bump test) only use certified calibration gas at the
required concentration level. Do not calibrate with expired calibration gas.
• If the instrument cannot be calibrated, do not use until the reason can be determined and corrected.
• Do not cover or obstruct display or visual alarm cover.
Ensure sensor inlets are unobstructed and is free of debris

A Field Calibration Kit, Cal-Kit 1, and one bottle of calibration gas is needed to complete gas test. These are available through
local distribution or from Macurco.
NOTE: CM-xx must be tested or calibrated at regular intervals in accordance with the requirements of the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA) 720 or local code requirements. It is recommended to test or calibrate CM-xx at least annually.

• Cal-Kit 1 (30-0011-1110-2)
o Calibration Case
o Two feet of Tygon tubing
o Cal Hood-Macurco Pack
o 0.2 LPM Gas regulator (F)
Also needed are the following gas bottles (Sold Separately):
• Qty 1 CO-200PPM (70-0714-0348-2)

Cal-Kit 1 Information
Several detectors can be calibrated with one Cal-Kit. The only limitation is the amount of gas in the cylinder. The 17-liter cylinder
has approximately 85 minutes of continuous calibration run time. The gas cylinder should be replaced when the pressure gauge
on the regulator shows 25-psi or less.
Note: For optimum test results it is suggested that the unit be in clean air, green light on, and be in a low ambient air flow.
