Calibration routine  

 

Ion Science recommends calibrating TVOC 2 after any maintenance or lamp cleaning is carried out and on a 3 monthly 

basis to ensure TVOC 2 is working to specification. 

 

NOTE: Please read this entire calibration procedure before attempting a calibration. 

 

TVOC 2 calibration is undertaken in three steps:  

1. Setting the ZERO  

 

 

(Using clean gas via carbon filter) 

2. Setting the span gas concentration 

(1 – 200 ppm Isobutylene on 0-100 ppm and 0-1000 ppm ranges) 

 

 

 

 

 

(0.1 – 20.0 ppm Isobutylene on the 0-10ppm range) 

3. Setting the SPAN 

 

 

(Using the SPAN gas)

Setting the ZERO 

 

1 – 

Place the calibration magnet over the Ion Science logo to enter calibration mode. 

The ‘

ZERO LED’

 will 

illuminate and the 

‘STATUS LED’

 will extinguish.

 

2 – 

Remove the calibration magnet 

3 – 

Insert the calibration adaptor into the sensor cap, attach the carbon filter to the calibration adaptor. The 

carbon filter should be attached to the hand aspirator.  

4 –  

Again place the calibration magnet over the logo. 

The ‘

ZERO LED’

 will flash, during this stage TVOC 2 displays 

a direct millivolt (mV) output from the PID sensor.
