Calibration

5.5 T-Air Calibration

Ths procedure frst zeros and then spans the ambent-temperature chan-

nel to known temperature values.

The use of an electronc thermocouple smulator s the preferred method of

producng the desred calbraton temperatures. Alternatvely, contaners

of ce water and bolng water can be used.

Material Required:

Thermocouple Smulator (K-type)

Range: 0 to 600 °F

Accuracy: ±0.5 °F

(Alternatvely) Ice-Water, Bolng Water, Thermometer

TA-Zero Procedure:
1. Set thermocouple smulator to room temperature and plug ts output

nto the T-AIR connector located at the bottom of the analyzer.

Alternatively: Plug the probe’s thermocouple nto the T-AIR connector

located at the bottom of the analyzer. DO NOT attach the probe’s

gas hose to the analyzer’s GAS port; otherwise water will be

drawn into the analyzer!

2. If not already done, turn ON the analyzer

and dsplay the CALIBRATION LIST screen

per Secton 5.2.

3. Use the buttons to hghlght T-Ar, and

then press

ENT

to dsplay the CALIBRATE

TA-ZERO screen.

“Measured” is the current temperature read-

ing, while “Applied” is a known temperature

that will be applied for calibration purposes.

4. Set thermocouple smulator to 32 °F (0 °C),

and then use the and buttons to enter

an Appled value that exactly equals the set-

tng of the smulator.

Alternatively: Submerge probe tp nto an ce-

water bath wth a thermometer, wat several

mnutes, and then use the and but-

tons to enter an Appled value that exactly

equals the thermometer readng.
