You can calibrate and check your FC10

Plus

 using either the wet bath or dry gas method. 

You must fi rst set your FC10

Plus

 to recognize which method or which ‘Standard Type’ you 

will be using.

Once you choose the Standard Type, the FC10

Plus

 will store that information in memory 

and you do not have to set it again unless you change to a different method of 
performing a calibration/calibration check.

Dry Gas Calibration requires that, prior to calibration, you enter the Corrected Standard 
Value based on your altitude or elevation. Using the chart on the outside of the canister, 
multiply the number next to your elevation by the standard.

 Example:

 

•  Denver, Colorado’s elevation is 5200 ft. above sea level and dry gas standard = .100 

  

BAC.

 • 

 

Correction factor from tank is .820

 

•  Corrected Standard = .100 x .820 = .082 

If you move to a signifi cantly different altitude before calibrating, you will have to change 
the standard in the FC10

Plus

 . 

Wet Bath Calibration

 does not require altitude correction.

Note:

 The FC10

Plus

 comes from the factory set for Wet Bath type and .100 BAC Calibration 

Standard.
