When calibrating or challenging the OMS:
•
Do not expose the OMS to flow rates that exceed
a half-liter per minute (500 cc per minute).
•
When testing sample draw monitors use an
on-demand regulator to expose the span gas to
the OMS.
•
Expose the OMS to span gas blends that only
consist of oxygen and nitrogen. Do not expose
the OMS to any combustible gas (methane,
hydrogen, etc.). Exposure to combustible
span gases can damage the sensor.
Keep Away From Silicone Compounds
Do not expose the OMS to silicone compounds.
Exposure to silicone compounds can cause a
loss of sensitivity.
Keep Away From High Air Flow
Do not expose the OMS to high air flow or
install it directly in front of fans. High air flow
can cool the sensor and cause inaccurate
readings.
