BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Before beginning calibration, make sure you have the following items:
1)
cylinder of calibration gas or ‘span gas’.
This is typically 50% LEL for the target hydrocarbon gas, but
can be any value between 25% and 75% of range.
2)
cylinder of “zero air”, typically % % nitrogen.
If the GDS-IR is configured to detect
Carbon Dioxide, the zero air mixture should contain nitrogen 99.9% by volume.
3)
A fixed flow regulator and a length of flexible tubing. GDS Corp recommends a flow rate of 0.5 liters /
minute for standard combustible gases.
4)
A magnetic wand
CALIBRATION SETUP
The GDS-IR infrared sensor has a barbed push-on cal gas inlet fitting on the bottom of the sensor. Attach
the fixed flow regulator and flexible tubing as shown below. Calibration may be performed on the GDS-IR
sensor in either the vertical or horizontal configuration.
