Air pressure value correction 
When should the air pressure value be corrected? 
The air pressure value must be checked and readjusted as required in the 
following cases: 
•  If the gas analyzer’s operating site altitude has changed since the last 
calibration or 
•  if the air pressure effect on the measured value is too high. 
NOTE 
An incorrect air pressure value will produce erroneous measurement values. 
Limas11 IR, Limas21 UV, Limas21 HW and Uras26 with integral pressure sensor 
and calibration cells 
A pressure sensor is factory-installed in the Limas11 IR, Limas21 UV,   
Limas21 HW and Uras26 analyzer modules. The pressure sensor is calibrated 
to 1013 hPa. This is the reference pressure for the test gas concentration 
when measuring the calibration cells. 
If the air pressure value needs to be changed, the following steps are also 
required  
•  Calibrate the sample components with test gases and then 
•  Measure the calibration cells. 
Air pressure value correction 
The current atmospheric pressure can be entered as a correction value for 
each analyzer module or for all analyzer modules as a group.

For all analyzer modules as a group: 
MENU 
→ Maintenance/Test → System → Atm. pressure 
NOTE 
If the pressure sensor is connected to the sample gas output line, the sam-
ple gas flow must be interrupted while calibrating the pressure sensor so 
that the sample gas pressure does not distort the measured pressure.
