M8102A/M3014A Mainstream and Sidestream CO2 Humidity Correction Factor
Either BTPS or ATPD can be selected as the humidity correction factor for the CO
2
readings. The
formula for the correction calculation is:
Where p = partial pressure, Pabs = absolute pressure, and P
H2O
= 42 mmHg @35°C and 100% RH.
