Sensor Purge
Sensor Purge is available for DMT345 and DMT346. The Purge should
be carried out to achieve the shortest response times and the best long-
term stability.
Sensor Purge is an automatic procedure, in which the sensor is dried.
Thus, the sensor will response very fast when installing the probe from
an ambient to a dry gas. Sensor Purge also corrects the possible gain drift
caused by some chemicals, thus ensuring together with AutoCal the best
measurement accuracy and long-term stability.
As a default, the interval Purge and power-up Purge are turned on
automatically in DMT345 and DMT346. It is recommended not to turn
them off. The automatic sensor Purge can also be started manually. If
enabled, power-up Purge will start always about 10 seconds after reset. If
the power is continuously turned on in the transmitter, the automatic
sensor Purge will be performed at an interval of 24 hours.
Manual Sensor Purge
The Purge should be performed always before calibration (see the
calibration instructions) or when there is a reason to believe that a sensor
has become exposed to an interfering chemical.
