Do gas detectors need to be tested and calibrated regularly?

After continuous use for a period of time, the gas detector may experience zero drift or inaccurate test data due to the influence of the usage environment and the loss of the sensor itself. At this point, the accuracy of the gas detector will be affected to some extent. In order to ensure the accuracy and testing effectiveness of the gas detector, it is necessary to recalibrate it.

Generally speaking, calibrating the instrument once a year can meet the usage requirements of users in ordinary environments. If it is a special environment or has strict data requirements for testing instruments, it is recommended to calibrate them every 3 months. The more times calibration is performed, the less likely the detection instrument is to drift and the more accurate the detection effect.

Regularly calibrating instruments is essential to ensure accurate measurement. This not only extends the normal service life of the instrument, but also makes the detection results more accurate.
