The sensors fitted to Impact Pro may give responses to gases other then 9.
the target gas. The table below gives typical sensor responses to various
gases and should be used as a guide only. Note: Always use the target
gas to perform sensor calibrations.
Your attention is drawn to the cross-sensitivity of the NH10.
