7.1 Sensor calibration

Sensor calibration

The sensor can be calibrated manually on an ad hoc basis. By default, the mode is set to zero calibration

with auto-end (see Calibration configuration on page 57 for more details), but these parameters can be

changed.

For higher level concentrations (above 1% oxygen which corresponds to about 400 ppb dissolved O

) a

high level adjustment can be performed using a gas mixture containing more than 1% oxygen, or a

known line sample. However, this should not be done without first ensuring the zero point is accurate.

This can be achieved by performing a zero calibration first.

Low range sensors: (K1100-L and M1100-L spots)

There are two calibration modes available - zero or high level adjustment. The sensor is factory

calibrated at zero. During use, the zero calibration is the best calibration to guarantee the sensor

specifications. After a spot replacement, a zero calibration is recommended.

High range sensors: (K1100-H and M1100-H spots)

There are three calibration modes available - zero, high level adjustment or in 100% humid air.

The sensor is factory calibrated at zero and in 100% humid air. During use, humid air calibration is

the best calibration to guarantee the sensor specifications. After a spot replacement, a zero

calibration and a 100% humid air calibration are recommended.

Initial sensor calibration

The sensor has been calibrated at the factory prior to shipment and is ready for use upon delivery.

However, if the sensor has not been used for a period of more than six months since delivery, or if the

sensor spot has been replaced or changed in any way, then a sensor calibration will be required.

Select the Configuration option from the Gas sensor calibration menu to check the calibration

parameters.

Ensure the parameters are set up as follows:

• Auto-calibration: This option is not available for the K1100 and M1100 sensors.

• Manual-calibration Auto-End: On by default.

• Hold during calibration or verification: On by default.

• Interferences enabled during cal: Ensure this is disabled by unchecking the box.

• Zero calibration bottle: Ensure this is disabled by unchecking the box as it is not relevant for the

K1100 and M1100 sensors.

Exit from the configuration screen by pressing on OK. Then select Calibration from the Gas sensor

calibration menu and perform a manual zero calibration as described in Zero calibration on page 58. For

high range sensors perform an additional 100% humid air calibration as described in 100% humid air

calibration (high range sensors only) on page 58.

Manual calibration

Manual calibrations can be made at any time. Perform a calibration by following these steps:

1. Remove the sensor from the sample line.

2. Rinse the sensor head with clean water.

3. Wipe the sensor head with a clean soft tissue to remove any excess moisture.

4. If using the supplied calibration device (see Portable calibration device on page 38), insert the

sensor into the sensor holder on top of the calibration device. If not using the calibration device,

insert the sensor into the flow chamber.

5. Flow the calibration sample through the calibration device or flow chamber as applicable. If using the

calibration device, fully open the valve on the pressure reducer to give a gas flow rate of 0.1 L/min. If

you are not using the supplied calibration device with pressure reducer, the maximum allowable

inlet pressure must be no more than 2 bar absolute.

6. Configure the calibration as described in Calibration configuration on page 57.

7. Start the calibration as described in Zero calibration on page 58, 100% humid air calibration (high

range sensors only) on page 58, or High level adjustment on page 58 depending on the preferred

calibration method.
