Instructions
Calibration and Bump Testing with Calibration Cup and/or Tubing
Read all instructions before beginning: notices, supply check-list, gas cylinder preparation, and the complete screen-
by-screen walk-through of the zero, calibrate, and bump test processes. Each process is presented in the order in
which it is accessible from gas monitoring mode.
NOTICES
 Industrial Scientific recommends that full monitor calibration be performed, using a known certified
concentration(s) of Industrial Scientific calibration gas(es), to prepare the monitor for first time use, and
monthly (at a minimum) thereafter, to help ensure monitor accuracy.
 Industrial Scientific also recommends that each monitor be zeroed and bump tested before each use with a
known certified concentration(s) of Industrial Scientific calibration gas(es).
 Read ALL requirements and instructions outlined below, including the screen-by-screen process description,
before beginning the zero, calibration, or bump testing processes.
 Only qualified personnel should zero, calibrate, or bump test a monitor.
 Zero, calibration, and bump testing functions should be performed in a fresh air environment known to be
nonhazardous.
 After calibration or bump testing, or after terminating either process, stop the flow of gas.

**Industrial Scientific recommends 1) the use of positive flow regulators with a flow rate of .5 LPM, and 2) the diffusion monitor be calibrated or bump
tested using a positive flow regulator, NOT a demand flow regulator.
