Division 2.6.2 Calculation procedure

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The drift correction shall be calculated by means of equation (7-76):

c i driftcor = c refzero + c refspan − c refzero 2 c i − c prezero + c postzero c prespan + c postspan − c prezero + c postzero (7-76)

Where:

ci driftcor
  • concentration corrected for drift [ppm]

  • c refzero
  • reference concentration of the zero gas, which is usually zero unless known to be otherwise [ppm]

  • c refspan
  • reference concentration of the span gas [ppm]

  • c prespan
  • pre-test interval gas analyzer response to the span gas concentration [ppm]

  • c postspan
  • post-test interval gas analyzer response to the span gas concentration [ppm]

  • ci or c –
  • concentration recorded, i.e. measured, during test, before drift correction [ppm]

  • c prezero
  • pre-test interval gas analyzer response to the zero gas concentration [ppm]

  • c postzero
  • post-test interval gas analyzer response to the zero gas concentration [ppm]
