1.
|
For an instrument calibrated on Pentane Simulant, multiply the displayed %LEL value by the conversion factor above to get the true %LEL. |
|
2.
|
These conversion factors should be used only if the combustible gas is known. |
|
3.
|
These conversion factors are typical. Individual units may vary by +25% from these values. |
|
4.
|
The results are intended for guidance only. For the most accurate measurements, an instrument should be calibrated using the gas under investigation. |
