There are two types of Calibration/Calibration
Check methods:
 Wet Bath Simulator
 Dry Gas
You can calibrate and check your FC20 using ei-
ther method. However, you must first set your
FC20 to recognize which method, or which
‘Standard Type’, you will be using.
Once you choose the standard type, the FC20 will
store that information in memory. You do not have
to set it again unless you change to a different
method of performing a calibration/calibration
check.
Dry Gas Calibration requires that you enter the
corrected Standard Value before calibration,
based on your altitude or elevation. Using the
chart on the outside of the canister, multiply the
number next to your elevation by the standard.
Example: Denver Colorado elevation 5280 Ft.
above sea level. Correction factor .820 x .100
= .082 corrected standard.
If you move to a location at a significantly differ-
ent altitude, you will have to change the standard
in the FC20.
Note: The FC20 comes from the factory set for wet
bath simulator and a .100 solution standard.
