9.3. MANUAL CALIBRATION WITH THE INTERNAL SPAN GAS
GENERATOR
IMPORTANT
IMPACT ON READINGS OR DATA
The internal span gas generator’s NO2 permeation tube has a limited
accuracy of about ±5%. In the USA this may be sufficient for informal
calibration checks (Section 9.3.4), but it is NOT approved by the US EPA
as a calibration source.
9.3.1. PERFORMING “PRECISION” MANUAL CALIBRATION WHEN
INTERNAL SPAN GAS (IZS) GENERATOR OPTION IS PRESENT
It is necessary to perform a precision calibration using more accurate zero and span gas standards prior
to IZS span calibration or cal check.
To perform a precision calibration of the 9110T, connect external sources of zero air and calibrated span
gas (Section 9.1.2) and temporarily disconnect the sample gas source as shown below; then follow the
procedures described in Section 9.2.3.

IMPORTANT
IMPACT ON READINGS OR DATA
DO NOT USE THE CALZ or CALS buttons even though they will be visible,
as this will cause the instrument to use the internal zero air and span gas.
Instead, press the CAL button. This will cause the analyzer to use the
external calibration gas sources.
