Plot the analyzer responses versus the corresponding calculated concentrations to
obtain the calibration relationships. Determine the straight line of best fit
(y = mx + b) determined by the method of least squares (e.g., see Appendix J of
Volume I of the Q.A. Handbook
6
).
After the best-fit line has been drawn, determine whether the analyzer response is
linear. To be considered linear, no calibration point should differ from the best-fit
line by more than 2% of full scale.

Dynamic Multipoint Calibration Check
The EPA-prescribed calibration procedure is based on photometric assays of O
3
concentrations in a dynamic flow system. It is based on the same principles that
the M400E uses to measure ozone. The theory is covered in Section 10 of this
manual.
Since the accuracy of the calibration standards obtained by this calibration
procedure depends entirely on the accuracy of the photometer, it is very important
that the photometer is operating properly and accurately. The fact that the
photometer makes a ratio measurement (I/I
o
) rather than an absolute
measurement eases this task.
