Section 6. Functional Tests and Calibration
6.1. Introduction
To comply with the requirements of EN378 and the European F-GAS
regulation, sensors must be tested annually. However, local regulations
may specify the nature and frequency of this test.
CAUTION:
Check local regulations on calibration or testing
requirements.
CAUTION:
The MGS contains sensitive electronic
components that can be easily damaged. Do not touch nor
disturb any of these components
NOTE:
The MGS is calibrated at the factory. After
installation, a zero adjustment maybe required due to
differences in environmental conditions.
IMPORTANT:
If the MGS is exposed to a large leak it should
be tested to ensure correct functionality by electrically
resetting the zero setting and carrying out a bump test. See
procedures below.
IMPORTANT:
Bacharach recommends annual checks and
gas calibration. Bacharach also recommends sensor
replacement every 3 years or as required. Calibration
frequency may be extended based on application, but should
never exceed 2 years.
IMPORTANT:
In applications where life safety is critical,
calibration should be done quarterly (every 3 months) or on a
more frequent basis. Bacharach is not responsible for setting
safety practices and policies. Safe work procedures including
calibration policies are best determined by company policy,
industry standards, and local codes.
