86.322-79—NDIR CO2 rejection ratio check.

(a) Zero and span the analyzer on the lowest range that will be used.
(b) Introduce a CO2 calibration gas of at least 10 percent CO2 or greater to the analyzer.
(c) Record the CO2 calibration gas concentration in ppm.
(d) Record the analyzers' response (AR) in ppm to the CO2 calibration gas.
(e) Calculate the CO2 rejection ratio (CO2 RR) from:

Code of Federal Regulations

CO2 RR = (ppm CO2)/AR
