How often should you perform a calibration on the Emissions Inspection System (EIS)?

Calibration of the Emissions Inspection System (EIS) is essential to ensure accurate and reliable measurements in emissions testing. Performing calibration every 72 hours helps maintain the integrity of the equipment, accounting for any drift that may occur over time due to environmental factors or wear and tear on the instrumentation. Regular calibration is necessary to comply with regulatory standards and ensure that the emissions testing results are valid and trustworthy.

This frequency strikes a balance between thorough monitoring and practical efficiency, ensuring that inspectors can perform their duties without excessive downtime or unnecessary recalibration. Maintaining this schedule aids in achieving consistent and compliant testing outcomes, thus supporting the overall goals of environmental protection and air quality improvement.
