Troubleshooting – System Zero and Calibration

Malfunction

Possible Cause

Action

Cannot zero instrument or
there is a high background
signal when sampling zero
air (zero air should produce
a reading equivalent to less
than 1 µg/m

multiplied by

the dilution factor).

Zero air system is
faulty, needs new
scrubbers or requires
maintenance

Test against an ultra-zero cylinder from
a reputable scientific gas supplier or
check effect of a new chromatography
grade activated charcoal scrubber
installed at the instrument inlet.

Zero air flow rate is
inadequate

Verify that the zero air system is
providing adequate flow.

Instrument is not
drawing in zero or
span gas

Check sample flow and pressure
readings (Diagnostics menu).

Ensure that zero/span valves are
functioning.

Use an independent flow meter to
check flows at the zero inlet and
exhaust bulkheads (they should
match).

Perform a leak test.

Internal or external
lines, filters, and
other sample
handling equipment
are contaminated or
dirty

Replace inlet filter (if installed) and as
much of the tubing as possible with
clean Teflon only.

High scattered light

Go to Instrument Controls, select Lamp
Compensation and toggle to OFF. If the
previously high signal drops to zero or
