Gas Detector Calibration

Caltech supports calibration requirements for suitable portable, fixed, single-gas and multi-gas detectors.

Detectors Covered

  • Portable gas detectors
  • Fixed gas detectors
  • Single-gas detectors
  • Multi-gas detectors
  • Oxygen monitors
  • Carbon monoxide detectors
  • Hydrogen sulphide detectors
  • Combustible-gas detectors
  • Ammonia detectors

Calibration checks instrument response using suitable reference gas. Functional checks may include the display, battery, audible alarm, visual alarm and vibration alarm.Portable gas detector connected to reference gas

A bump test verifies sensor and alarm response. Calibration checks the displayed reading against suitable reference gas.
Availability depends on the detector model, installed sensors and required reference gases
