3.2 Calibration

Calibration obtains the exact frequency (speed of sound) for the carrier gas (or one
component of a mixture) for specific Composer Elite System operating conditions.
Calibration determines Reference Zero.

For many applications, Factory Zero is sufficient to provide the needed levels of
accuracy and reproducibility. Refer to

section 4.1.3, How is Performance Affected

if I Use the Factory (Reference) Zero Value?, on page 4-2

.

3.2.1 Frequency of Calibration

Applications requiring the highest degree of reproducibility should be calibrated
daily. Experience will determine if less frequent calibrations are appropriate. See:

When and How Often to Set the Reference Zero, section 4.1.2 on page 4-1

How is Performance Affected if I Use the Factory (Reference) Zero Value?,
section 4.1.3 on page 4-2

What Happens if the Reference Zero is Improperly Set?, section 4.1.10 on
