» Calibrate the N2 analyzer weekly when in operation, or if environmental conditions
change significantly. (ie, Elevation, Temperature, Pressure, Humidity — refer to
“Factors Influencing Accurate Readings”).
» Use of the N2 analyzer near devices that generate electrical fields may cause erratic readings
