TYPE 3 ERRORS
A. Altitude:
A 1000-foot change in altitude is equal to an error of approximately 3% at the 10
mg/l level.
B. Humidity:
Errors occur if calibration is performed at less than 100% humidity. The error varies
with the temperature as follows:
TEMPERATURE

APPROXIMATING THE ERROR
It is unlikely that the actual error in any measurement will be the maximum possible error. A better
error approximation is obtained using a root mean squared (r.m.s.) calculation:
r.m.s. error = ±[1a
