13.0 Guidelines on How to Measure Ozone The following information is presented to help users operate their Aeroqual monitor with an ozone sensor installed in the most effective and efficient manner. General • Ozone is heavier than air and tends to sink. Thus detection of leaks from ozone generating equipment should be per- formed at the most appropriate position.
Information A zero calibration menu routine is included in the Series 200, however it is important to understand when this should be used. All Aeroqual sen- sors are supplied pre-calibrated and zero calibration is performed in the factory in an atmosphere containing < 0.5 ppm hydrocarbons, 50% rela- tive humidity and 25 oC.
