Ambient CO 

 

Fig. 38: Ambient CO 

 

The option 'Ambient CO' offers a graphical assist-

ed ambient CO test. 
The current ambient CO concentration is shown 

over the elapsed measurement time. The figure 

on the left shows an 'Ambient CO' test over a time 

period of 230 seconds and the current CO level is 

2 ppm.  
 
The options during the ambient CO test are as 

follows: 

  Cancel (left icon): click the left key to exit 

without performing an “Ambient CO” test and 

return to the main menu. 

  New: Start a new “Ambient CO” test  

  Option “CO=0”: click to zero-out the CO sen-

sor offset reading. 

  To evaluate the test click on "Not OK" or "OK". 

The analyzer will enter the data menu where 

you can save and/or print the information. 

 

  NOTE! 

Due to temperature effects and aging of the CO 

sensor it is possible that the 0 ppm offset level 

changes. Check regularly in clean air that the am-

bient CO level is reading zero. If the reading is not 

zero in clean air, click the 'CO=0' key to zero-out 

the readings.
