1. Purpose
This document provides a detailed step-by-step guide for the calibration of the OLCT oxygen detector, including zero calibration and span calibration procedures.
2. Calibration Preparation
2.1 Required Tools and Equipment
- Test kit
- Multimeter
- Calibration gas supply (N₂ gas for zero calibration)
- Span gas (ambient air at 20.9% O₂)
2.2 Stabilization Time
⚠️ Note: After power-up, the oxygen detector requires 1 hour for stabilization before calibration can begin.
3. Calibration Procedure
3.1 Zero Calibration (Using N₂ Gas)
- Insert the blue and green plugs of the test kit lead into the + and – multimeter sockets.
- Connect the test kit to connector "A" on the oxygen detector.
- Supply N₂ gas to the oxygen sensor through the calibration connector and wait for stabilization.
- If the displayed value differs from the expected 0.4V, adjust the "0" control ("C") until exactly 0.4V is displayed.
3.2 Span Calibration (Using Ambient Air 20.9% O₂)
- Disconnect the input/output tubes from the oxygen detector to allow atmospheric air to flow.
- Observe the gradual increase in output voltage.
- Confirm that the oxygen concentration displayed on the monitor is approximately 20.9%.
- If not, adjust the output voltage to 1.505V (corresponding to 20.9% O₂) by using the span potentiometer (C) on the O₂ sensor.
⚠️ Caution: The oxygen sensor should always be calibrated at 20.9% in the atmosphere to ensure accurate readings.
