PPM–400ST Formaldehyde Meter Operation Manual
Appendix C :
List of Common Interferences
Please note that interference factors will differ from sensor to sensor and
with sensor use over it's lifetime. This table is only a guideline. Do not
attempt to calibrate with cross interfering gases.
Please be aware that ozone causes formaldehyde to be broken down into
carbon dioxide, water and oxygen; therefore, in ozone rich environments,
formaldehyde levels can be reduced.
Filters are extremely efficient at removing phenol from the sample, along
with some other alcohols and aldehydes.
Note that the filters reduce the concentration of formaldehyde by around
15% so should only be used in conditions where there are suspected
interferences and the instrument should be calibrated with the filter in
place. See Section 2.2 for more information.

A wide range of suspected interfering gases have been tested, including (NH3, CO, CO2, NO2, Acetone &
Isobutylene), and the table shows only those which caused interference below LEL levels at 25°C.
Unless noted otherwise all responses are linear.
