Test Gas

approx. 10 ppm C2H4O
The Drager Sensor XXS OV-A has a defined cross-sensitivity to carbon monoxide (CO). It can be calibrated with CO as a replacement for all of its target gases. This replacement calibration using CO can produce an additional measuring error of up to 20%. We recommend that devices are calibrated with the gas you intend to detect in actual operation. Calibration using the target gas is more accurate than replacement gas calibration.
