As is the case with all optical instruments, open-path eddy-covariance instruments may drift slightly with exposure to natural elements. Therefore, routine maintenance requires a periodic zero-and-span procedure. This video demonstrates how to properly zero-and-span your IRGASON or EC150 in a laboratory setting. For further details on this process please consult the manual or contact Campbell Scientific support.
