APPENDIX II 

 

SET UP OF THE MANUAL CALIBRATION APPARATUS

 

These instructions should be followed when setting up and using the manual calibration 

apparatus (Part No. PCA-302). 

The  components  of  the  manual  calibration  apparatus  are  shown  assembled  in  Figure  5, 

they include:

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

 

For your safety please read these instructions carefully.  To operate the flow regulator on 

a  compressed  gas  cylinder,  it  is  required  that  you  be  trained  in  its  proper  use  or  be  under 
competent supervision. 

 
1.  Wear safety glasses. 
2.  Never heat or expose a gas cylinder to temperatures above 125

o

F. 

3.  Be certain that the gas stream is shut off at the regulator when not in use. 
4.  Vent all calibration gas directly to outside air. 
6.

 

Always use the flow regulator to prevent pump damage.
