NR6 RHINOMANOMETER

CALIBRATION

A calibration check should be made, and if required the instrument adjusted, in the following
circumstances:

a)

if the pressure or flow transducers are changed

b)

if the flowhead is contaminated with dust or other particles or has been washed or

disinfected

c)

if some time has elapsed since the last calibration (ideally a check should be made

before each testing session)

d)

if there is any uncertainty about the results achieved

Two transducers are used in each NR6 - one for measuring the flow and one for measuring the
pressure. They can be set using static individual calibration units, such as a liquid column for
pressure and a rotameter for flow.
