FAQs
High percentage of humidity effects the performance and can result in False results. ION SENSE® PIDS are made with patent Fence Electrode Technology which minimises the effect of humidity on the performance of the sensor.
Please share serial number with the team and they will revert with the information.
We use Isobutylene for calibration of our PIDS. The RF relates the sensitivity of PID to a volatile to the sensitivity to the standard calibration gas isobutylene.
