7-2. Calibration
The product can be calibrated using automatic calibration with preset gas concentrations in addition to air
calibration.
Span adjustment requires dedicated tools and a calibration gas. Contact Riken Keiki.
7-2-1. Preparation for calibration
This section describes how to calibrate the product using calibration adapter (simple type).

* Hydrogen must be calibrated in the range 10 °C to 30 °C.
* The same applies to bump test gas.
CAUTION
Do not use lighter gas to check the sensitivity of the product. Constituents in the lighter gas may
degrade sensor performance.
