6.4. Calculating Calibration Voltage
Sensor outputs are linear. As long as you have a gas cylinder of known
concentration you can calibrate to any desired range.
Example:
For a sensor range of 0-1000 ppm and a cylinder of the target
gas at 800 ppm:

So the output voltage signal should be adjusted to 4V.
6.5. Calibrating Semiconductor (SC) Sensors
Step
Calibrating Semiconductor (SC) Sensors
1
Locate Pot P2 which is used to adjust the zero point.
2
Monitor the output between 0V (negative) and VS (positive).
3
Adjust Pot P2 to 0 V or slightly positive (0.01 V is acceptable).
4
Locate Pot P3 which is used to calibrate the range (span) of
the sensor.
5
Monitor the output between 0V (negative) and VS (positive).
6
Expose the sensor to calibration gas and allow to stabilize
(approximately 3 minutes).
7
Adjust pot P3 to the voltage calculated in section 6.4 (page
29).
NOTE:
For semiconductor sensors, you MUST use
calibration gas in a balance of air (
