Calibrating the Orion G Multigas and
Leak Detector
Each Orion G Multigas and Leak Detector is equipped with an
autocalibration feature to make unit calibration as easy as
possible.
The Autocalibration sequence resets instrument zeroes and
adjusts sensor calibration for known concentrations of
calibration gases.
