Zero Drift:
The changes in instrument response to zero
pollutant concentration over time.
Zero Air:
Is purified air in which the concentration of NO is
<0.5 ppb and NO
2
is <0.5 ppb with water vapour of
less than 10% RH. Sufficient purified air can be
obtained by passing dry ambient air through an
activated charcoal scrubber, a Purafil scrubber and a
particulate filter.
External Span Source:
Span gas that is delivered via an external accredited
cylinder containing NO in balance with N
2
(e.g.
NATA/NIST).
Sample Air:
Sample air is defined as the sample before it has
entered the reaction cell, as distinguished from the
exhaust air.
Exhaust Air:
Exhaust air is the sample air after it has passed
through the reaction/measurement/detection cell
and is moving towards being expelled from the
instrument.
ID and OD:
These are measurements of tubing, ID is the internal
diameter of tubing, and OD is the outer diameter.
Multidrop:
A configuration of multiple instruments connected
via the same RS232 cable.
Photomultiplier Tube:
A highly sensitive device which can detect extremely
low levels of light (photons) and multiply the
electrical signal to a point where it can be accurately
measured. These are often called PMTs for short.
Bootloader:
A program that checks whether the current
firmware is valid and executes the instrument start-
up. The Bootloader can be entered by pressing the
‘+’ key on the front keypad during the first ½ second
after power on, and following the prompts. The
Bootloader enables various low level recovery tools,
including updating the main firmware from a USB
stick.
PCA:
Printed Circuit Assembly. An electronic circuit
mounted on a printed circuit board to perform a
specific electronic function.
slpm:
Standard litres per minute. This is the flow
referenced to standard temperature and pressure
conditions. For the purposes of this manual, all flows
are referenced to 0 °C and 101.3 kpa (1 atm).
