How to calibrate the combustible gas detector after zero drift?

Publication Date:2025/03/18

In the daily use of the combustible gas detector, due to environmental factors, equipment aging and other reasons, zero drift may occur, resulting in inaccurate measurement. Therefore, in order to ensure its measurement accuracy, regular zero calibration of combustible gas detector is an indispensable part of ensuring safe production. Do you know how to calibrate combustible gas detector after zero drift? The following is a brief introduction by yiyuntian electronics:


 combustible gas detector


The calibration method of combustible gas detector after zero drift mainly includes the following steps:


1. preparation phase

(1) Confirm the drift phenomenon:


It is necessary to confirm whether the combustible gas detector does have zero drift phenomenon, which can be judged by observing the display value of the combustible gas detector in a gas-free environment.If the displayed value is not zero, a zero drift may have occurred.


(2) Prepare the calibration tool:


Calibrating a combustible gas detector usually requires tools such as a standard gas generator, standard gas, calibration instruments, and connecting lines. Therefore, we need to ensure that these tools are fully prepared and meet the calibration requirements.


(3) Check device status:


Before calibration, it is necessary to check whether the sensor, connecting pipeline and other components of the combustible gas detector are intact and whether they are in normal working condition.


2. calibration steps

(1) Zero Calibration:


Place the combustible gas detector in an interference-free environment and ensure that there is no interference from other gases.Use a standard gas generator to supply zero point gas (usually clean air or nitrogen) and adjust the flow rate to the appropriate value. After waiting for the indication of combustible gas detector to be stable, adjust the indication to zero according to the steps in the manual.


(2) Verify zero calibration:


After the zero calibration is completed, the zero gas can be introduced again for verification to ensure that the displayed value of the combustible gas detector has accurately returned to zero.


(3) Indication calibration (optional):


If you need a more accurate calibration, you can also perform an indication calibration. This usually involves calibrating the combustible gas detector with a standard gas of known concentration and adjusting its sensitivity or output signal to ensure that its displayed value is consistent with the concentration value of the standard gas.


3. subsequent actions and precautions


> (1) Record the calibration results:


After the calibration is completed, the calibration results should be recorded, including the standard gas used, concentration value, calibration time and other information.This helps to follow up and evaluate the performance of the combustible gas detector.


(2) Periodic maintenance:


In order to ensure the long-term accuracy and reliability of the combustible gas detector, regular maintenance and maintenance are required. This includes cleaning the sensor, checking the integrity of components such as connecting pipes, etc.


(3) Pay attention to environmental factors:


During calibration and daily use, care should be taken to avoid interference from environmental factors to the combustible gas detector. For example, avoid the influence of high temperature, high humidity, strong magnetic field and other environments on the combustible gas detector.


(4) Follow safety regulations:


During the calibration and routine maintenance of the combustible gas detector, the relevant safety specifications and operating procedures should be strictly followed. This helps to ensure the safety of the operator and the normal operation of the equipment.


In summary, we can see that the calibration method after the zero drift of the combustible gas detector includes the preparation stage, calibration steps, and subsequent operations and precautions.Through a scientific and reasonable calibration process, we can effectively eliminate the error caused by zero drift, ensure that the combustible gas detector can accurately and timely issue an alarm at a critical moment, and escort the safety of the enterprise.
