Nuvair Pro VOC Correction Factors The Nuvair Pro VOC Alarm analyzer sensor is calibrated using isobutylene, but the PID (Photo Ionization Detector) is a broadband VOC detector, with a sensitivity that differs for each VOC. If you know what VOC you are measuring, then the table below will allow you to calculate the concentration for your specific VOC.

NA: Not available. Either not tested or the VOC is not volatile enough to generate a detectable vapor. Where available: (i) an estimate of the minimum detection limit (MDL) for the A1 and AH PID sensor (ii) ionization energies were obtained from the NIST Chemistry WebBook (http://webbook.nist.gov/chemistry/).
