3.3.4 Span Gas Calibration

Before beginning the span gas calibration, make sure the oxy.IQ is
indicating an O
accurate calibration. Then, start the flow of the span gas to the
sensor. For accurate calibration, the span gas should have an oxygen
content of 70-90% of the range being calibrated.
To perform the span calibration, complete the following steps:
1. Use the equation below to calculate the expected mA output that
corresponds to the known oxygen content of the span gas:
For example, if the span gas contains 80 ppm oxygen and the
0-100 ppm range is being calibrated, the analog output should equal
4 + 16 x (80/100) = 16.8 mA.
2. If you have not done so already, start the flow of span gas to the
sensor and allow both the 4-20 mA output reading and the
display reading to stabilize.
3. After the reading has stabilized, press the
the Main Menu.
