5.1 B-Smart Sensors
The Fyrite INSIGHT utilizes Bacharach’s new B-Smart Sensor technology
for its CO sensor. The B-Smart sensor is marked with a 10-digit calibra-
tion code that can be entered in the instrument's memory via the keypad,
or with Fyrite user software.
Benefits of B-Smart Sensors:
• New sensors can be installed without applying gas for calibration.
• Sensors can be pre-calibrated and installed when needed.
• Sensors can be moved from one analyzer to another.
The B-Smart sensors should be calibrated by an authorized Bacharach
Service Center every 6 months to 1 year to assure that the analyzer con-
tinues to meet its published accuracy specifications. The B-Smart sensors,
however, can be calibrated in the field if your facility has the necessary
equipment and qualified personnel to perform the procedures described in
the following sections of this instruction manual.
5.2 Starting a Calibration
Start any calibration by performing the following:
1. With the analyzer power OFF, place the unit in fresh, ambient air;
then turn on the analyzer.
2. Allow the analyzer to cycle through its 60 second warm-up period.
During warm-up the analyzer's operation is checked and the sensors
are set to the following ambient conditions:
