system for field calibration of H
2
S sensors. The bottle is filled with a hydrogen sulfide
(H
2
S) in air mixture and is available in 7 concentrations. The temperature limitation for
operation and storage is 0°F to +130°F (-18°C to +54°C). Make sure the Model 2280A
has had power applied for at least 24 hours to ensure that the metal oxide film of the
sensor has stabilized. Make sure the sensor is seeing clean air.
