When calibrating or performing a bump test, it is important to use a regulator with flow rate that falls within the manufacturer's recommendations. Pumped instruments may generally be used with a demand flow regulator (DFR), which is the most accurate and efficient way to apply gas to the sensors.
Please consult your gas detector manual for more information on your specific gas monitor and bump test and calibration procedures.
