EC9830 CO ANALYZER OPERATION MANUAL 
2-10  98307600 Rev. C-1 
approximately  two  hours  after  startup  from  cold  condition.  These  repeat 
adjustments ensure the instrument is at equilibrium and correctly zeroed.  
After the first three cycles, the instrument repeats the background cycle daily at 
midnight  (unless  BACKGROUND  is  set  to  DISABLED),  or  whenever  a  temperature 
excursion of 4° C (7° F) occurs. This auto-zero eliminates the effect of zero drift 
on measuring accuracy. The zero can be validated through manual check. 
Note 
The  EC9830  will  re-run  the  above  startup  routine 
whenever  power  has  been  lost  for  more  than  two 
minutes. If power is lost for less than two minutes, 
the  analyzer  will  return  to  its  previous  settings 
without the startup routine.
