Section 6.

Maintenance

The LI-7815 will require little maintenance. There are no user-serviceable parts in
the instrument except for the air inlet filter, air dry-down chemical, and pump. Do
not attempt to disassemble the instrument or conduct any maintenance procedures
other than those described here.

Instrument calibration

To adjust the instrument calibration, you can set the zero and span. The span is like
a slope (the

m

in

y

=

mx

+

b

). The zero is a spectral baseline. Adjusting the zero

changes every measurement (the relationship is non-linear). Adjusting the span
changes the slope. Calibration gases should be at a pressure between ambient and 35
kPa (5 PSI) above ambient pressure. We recommend installing a >30 cm vent before
the air inlet to vent the excess pressure and prevent diffusion of ambient air into the
gas stream.

Figure 6-1. Plumbing configuration for calibration gases. Use a low pressure regulator to
reduce pressure and a 30 cm vent to are recommended avoid pressurizing the inlet.
