Read the following steps (1-7) before beginning calibration.
1. Verify the calibration gas being used matches the span
concentration value(s) that are set for the detector. Refer to
Calibration Gas in Fleet Manager II.
2. Attach a 0.5 ml/min regulator to the gas cylinder. To perform an
automated calibration, use a demand flow regulator and refer to
the MicroDock II User Manual.
3. Connect the calibration hose to the calibration cap.
4. Connect the other end of the calibration hose to the regulator on
the gas cylinder.
5. Refer to Calibration Setup
to apply gas.
6. When calibration is complete turn off gas and disconnect the
hose from the calibration cap and regulator.
7. Ensure the gas cylinder is stored according to the manufacturer’s
specifications.
