This procedure is intended to describe the operations of the Sabio model 2010 and 4010
dilution calibrators. These dilution calibrators were designed to provide the highest
standard of quality and performance in a light weight durable package. This procedure
describes the set up and operational requirements of the Sabio model 2010 and 4010
calibrator to complete a multipoint calibration on an ambient air monitoring analyzer with
the additional section describing the gas phase titration portion of the NO2 calibration.
This method adheres to the requirements of the current Air Monitoring Directive (AMD)
drafted by Alberta Environment in 1989. In some cases the limits and specifications
exceed the requirements of the current AMD and subsequent amendments. It should be
considered that the current and any future amendments or drafts of the AMD will be
used as the benchmark for requirements and criteria for ambient air monitoring practices
conducted in the Province of Alberta. Information used to write this procedure was also
taken from sources identified in the reference section.
