Calibration method for NDIR equipment and calibration apparatus

Abstract

A method and apparatus for calibrating an NDIR gas analyzer is provided. According to the method, the apparatus under calibration is calibrated with the help of a reference apparatus under controlled conditions. The reference apparatus is a laboratory-calibrated NDIR measurement apparatus in an arrangement based on circulating ambient air via both a measurement chamber of the measurement apparatus under calibration and measurement chamber of the laboratory-calibrated measurement apparatus. Adjusting the reading of a display, or alternatively, an output signal of the measurement apparatus under calibration to be equal to the reading of the display, or the output signal, respectively, of the reference apparatus is performed by a control device of the measurement apparatus.
