Zero offset
If the zero reference gas is not completely free of hydrocarbons (even puri-
fied nitrogen contains fractions of hydrocarbons), negative measured values
may be displayed in small measuring ranges (the process gas is "cleaner"
than the zero reference gas).
Test gas infeed
If the test gases are connected at the zero gas and span gas inlet, the test
gases are connected automatically by means of the integral valves.
If the test gas is connected at the sample gas inlet, the zero gas and span
gas inlets must be sealed.
