Altitude Range (Storage)
-305 to 5,486m (-1,000 to 18,000 ft).
Warm-up Time
After switching on: 2 minutes to measure, 8 minutes for full specification accuracy.
Performance Specifications
All Performance and accuracy specifications are valid based on gas sample tubing M1658A, including
watertrap M1657B, and airway adapter 13902A.
Humidity Correction: For CO
2
the humidity correction can be set to “wet” or “dry”.
Wet: p [mmHg] = c [Vol%] * (p_abs - p_H
2
O)/100
Dry: p [mmHg] = c [Vol%] * p_abs /100
Where p = partial pressure, c = gas concentration, p_abs = pressure in breathing circuit, p_H
2
O = 47
mmHg, partial pressure of water vapor of exhaled gas (37
o
C, 100% rh).
For all other gases the readings are always given as dry values.
Sample Flow Rate: 150 ml/min.
Sample Delay Time: All measurements and alarms are subject to a delay of 3 seconds.
Total System Response Time = the sum of the delay time and the rise time.
