6.3.4.6 Automate external calibration with CalMate (optional)
WARNING
Danger to pacemaker wearers from magnets
The calibration adapter contains magnets with which it adheres to the calibration leak.
► If you wear a pacemaker, do not install it yourself.
► If you wear a pacemaker, always maintain a distance of at least 10 cm from the
calibration adapter when operating the device.
In sniffer mode, it is possible to automate calibrations with an external calibration leak.
ü The CalMate calibration adapter is mounted on an external INFICON sniffer
calibration leak so that the opening in the adapter is directly above the outlet of the
calibration leak.
ü The calibration adapter is connected to the leak detector by cable. For further
details, refer to the "CalMate Calibration Adapter for Test Leaks" operating
instructions.
ü If there is no separate interface on the back of the XL3000flex for connecting the
connection cable, you have established the connection via the IO1000 module. See
also "Device setup [}14]".
ü Using the CalMate on the XL3000flex requires a basic unit software version of
V2.74 or higher.
ü In the sniffer leak detector, the gas type (mass) and leak rate of the external
calibration leak are set.

Start the calibration check in the XL3000flex by inserting the sniffer tip into the
calibration port on the CalMate.
ð A light barrier in the CalMate adapter detects when a sniffer tip is held in the
calibration opening.
ð If a significant error is detected during this check, the leak detector
recommends another calibration.
