Calibration and Bump Testing

Gas detectors should be functionally tested regularly to ensure their 

correct operation. This is referred to as bump testing.

To bump test a Zeta Gas Sense detector, fit the Calibration cap to the stainless 

steel filter housing. Then take a test Cylinder with the appropriate gas type & 

concentration. Fit the tube from the cylinder to the Calibration cap . Open the 

regulator on the cylinder. Check that the reading on the detector rises and reaches 

the level indicated on the cylinder (Within the specified tolerance range)

If a detector fails this bump test then it should be zero’s in clean air then 

recalibrated using the calibration cap and the gas cylinder.

Test Gas Cylinders

A range of cylinders are available for testing the Gas Sense detectors.
