GEM5000 gas analyzer 5K-MNL-GEM5000
Calibration gases can be dangerous.
For each gas used the appropriate material safety data sheet
must be read and understood before proceeding.
9.4 Calibration set-up
Do NOT attach the gas supply to the gas analyzer before
putting the analyzer into the ‘Gas Check’ screen. Select
‘Check Spans’ from the ‘Operation Settings’ menu.
The regulator supplied with the calibration kit has been configured to deliver a fixed flow.
As the regulator’s flow is factory set, it only requires a few turns to open, no adjustment
is necessary.
Exhaust port
When the gas analyzer is being calibrated, there are two
possible exits for the gas, via the usual manner out of the
exhaust (yellow) port of the analyzer or through the optional
pressure relief valve. In cases of over-pressurization the port
on the pressure relief valve will open.
It is recommended that tubing is attached to the instrument
during a calibration or gas check. The exhaust tubing must
emerge in a well-ventilated area. Ensure there are no leaks
in the tubing and connections.
The calibration of the gas analyzer should be carried out in
a safe area with all necessary precautions taken when using
potentially dangerous, explosive or toxic gases.
