2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
When a sniffer tip is inserted into the intended opening of the calibration adapter of theinstrument, a calibration check or calibration is started in the sniffer leak detector.
To do this, attach the calibration adapter to an INFICON calibration leak and connect itto the sniffer leak detector using a connection cable (accessory) of max. 3 m in length.
If the sniffer leak detector does not have a separate interface for connecting theconnecting cable, alternatively connect via the IO1000 module.
• Use the device only according to this instruction manual.
• The instrument may only be connected to INFICON sniffer leak detectors that
support automatic calibration.
• Comply with application limits, see "Technical Data".

4.1 Function
If a sniffer tip is inserted into the intended opening of the CalMate calibration adapter,a calibration check or calibration is started in the sniffer leak detector, e.g. theXL3000flex. Also refer to the operating instructions of the respective sniffer leakdetector.
To do this, place the calibration adapter on an INFICON calibration leak for sniffer
applications. The adapter adheres magnetically. A connecting cable is used toestablish the connection between the adapter and the sniffer leak detector.
If the sniffer leak detector does not have a separate interface for connecting theconnecting cable, alternatively connect via the IO1000 module.
A light barrier in the adapter detects when a sniffer tip is held in the calibration
opening. The sniffer leak detector must support calibration verification or calibration
via CalMate with appropriate software.

operation (no errors):

WARNING
Danger to pacemaker wearers from magnets
The calibration adapter contains magnets with which it adheres to the calibration leak.
► If you wear a pacemaker, do not install it yourself.

► Position the adapter on the external calibration leak so that the calibration opening
is above the outlet of the calibration leak. The manometer of the calibration leakshould not be covered.
ðThe calibration adapter sticks to the calibration leak through the magnets.

5.2 Connect the adapter to the sniffer leak detector
5.2.1 Connection adapter / sniffer leak detector
If your INFICON sniffer leak detector is already prepared for connection to thecalibration adapter, use the connection cable supplied with the CalMate. It is usedboth for the power supply of the calibration adapter by the sniffer leak detector and forthe signal exchange between both devices.
Make sure that the devices involved are disconnected from the power supply before
installation.

ü A connection for the connecting cable to the calibration adapter is attached to yoursniffer leak detector. Also refer to the operating instructions of the sniffer leakdetector.
ü The software used for the sniffer leak detector supports the automatic calibration
function.

Connect the calibration adapter and sniffer leak detector with the connection
cable included with the delivery.

5.2.2 Connection adapter / IO1000/ sniffer leak detector
If your INFICON sniffer leak detector does not have a special connector for theconnection to the calibration adapter, you can establish the connection between thesniffer leak detector and the calibration adapter via the IO1000 module.
Make sure that the devices involved are disconnected from the power supply before
installation.

ü There is no separate connection on your sniffer leak detector for the connection
cable to the calibration adapter.
ü The software of your sniffer leak detector supports the automatic calibration function
or can be updated accordingly.
ü You have the IO1000 module and the necessary connection cables to the sniffer
leak detector and to the calibration adapter.

1

If necessary, mount a DIN rail and the IO1000 module to your sniffer leakdetector.

2

Establish the cable connections between the I/O module and the sniffer leakdetector and between the I/O module and the calibration adapter.
