Gas selection  

 

 

 

 

 

GasCheck G is calibrated using Helium gas at manufacture, however other gases can be 
detected and measured using a gas table within the instrument. 
Although GasCheck G can't differentiate between gases it can quantify other gases using 
response factors stored in its internal gas table. Gas groups  1 2, 3, 4 and 5 offer a generic 
sensitivity. 
The following list indicates response factors for specific gases however for advice on gases 
not listed please contact Ion Science Ltd for advice.

To select an alternative gas use the 'Up and Down' keys to select the desired gas and then 
press the 'ENTER' key to confirm the selection, at which point a tick will appear. Press the 
'ENTER or Esc' key to exit into the 'Main menu'. 
If the gas to be detected does not appear in the instruments internal gas table then one of 
the five 'Gas Groups' can be selected. 'Gas Groups' have a variation of sensitivities. (Group 1 
being high sensitivity through to Group 5 being low sensitivity) Contact Ion Science Ltd for 
advice. 
Gas groups allow the instrument to calculate leak rates with reasonable accuracy.
