5354 | 2021-06-24 | Bouldin Corn Gas Analyzer CH4 | Removed | Loaned none | Removed from BC and loaned to Steve, Sabina and Nick for use on Staten Island. This unit belongs to DWR and the one they had belongs to UCB. |
5275 | 2021-05-27 | Bouldin Corn | Calibration | Bouldin Corn | Calibration Location: Bouldin Corn
Last calibration: 2020-11-30 RSSI=73%, Optical RH=15% Ambient P=101.6kPa, Tair=26.8C AMP FB03864 at 900psi, AMP CA04119 4.223 at 1900 CH4 Zero Offset: 0.006ppm CH4 Span Offset: -0.003ppm Notes: Zero gas was an AMP cal gas in a baby tank that we borrowed for the day. |
5089 | 2021-02-03 | Lab none | Installed | Bouldin Corn Gas Analyzer CH4 | Installed on the BC tower to replace sensors damaged when the tower fell last week |
4991 | 2020-11-30 | Lab none | Upgrade | Lab none | Upgraded firmware from v1.0.27 to v1.0.29 - it is mostly fixes that are useful internally to Licor. https://www.licor.com/env/support/LI-7700/topics/change-log.html |
4990 | 2020-11-30 | Lab | Calibration | Lab | Calibration Location: Lab Last calibration: 2020-05-20 RSSI=73%, Optical RH=11% Ambient P=101.2kPa, Tair=24.0C Zero Air at 500psi, AMP CA4396 1.9497 at 375 CH4 Zero Offset: -0.054ppm CH4 Span Offset: 0.009ppm Notes: First calibration after renaming from "unknown" to its serial number. After this calibration, I will upgrade the firmware to v1.0.29. |
4989 | 2020-11-25 | Lab none | Maintenance | Lab none | Renamed from "Unknown" to "TG1-0224" and rebooted. The optics RH was 22%, so I swapped the desiccant and flushed the headspace with zero air. The new optics RH was 11%. I will let it run for a few days, logging data, to see if there are any issues before I calibrate. |
4978 | 2020-11-19 | West Pond Gas Analyzer CH4 | Removed | Lab none | Removed from West Pond for calibration. Replaced by sn TG1-0421. It was brought back to the lab because its name was "Unknown" in both the 7550 and 7700 software instead of the usual serial number. |
4453 | 2020-05-19 | West Pond Gas Analyzer CH4 | Calibration | West Pond Gas Analyzer CH4 | Calibration Location: West Pond
Last calibration: 2019-10-22 RSSI=71%, Optical RH=9% Ambient P=101.5kPa, Tair=21.5C Zero Air at 950psi, AMP CA3923 3.121 at 900 CH4 Zero Offset: -0.022ppm CH4 Span Offset: -0.003ppm Notes: Breezy day |

Optical RH high - needs new desiccant. |
3760 | 2018-10-25 | West Pond Gas Analyzer CH4 | Calibration | West Pond Gas Analyzer CH4 | Calibration Location: West Pond
Last calibration: 2018-04-04 RSSI=70%, Optical RH=22% Ambient P=101.7kPa, Tair=25.5C Zero Air at 1950psi, AMP Air 3.121 at 2100 CH4 Zero Offset: -.004ppm CH4 Span Offset: -.002ppm Notes: Calm day. Before calibrating, we flushed head spaced with zero air. Optics RH dried down from 22% to 13% before calibration started. |
3392 | 2018-04-05 | Lab none | Installed | West Pond Gas Analyzer CH4 | Installed at WP to replace sn TG1-0424, which was brought back to the lab for calibration. |
3381 | 2018-04-04 | Lab none | Calibration | Lab none | Calibration Location: Lab Last calibration: 2017-11-27 RSSI=73%, Optical RH=14% Ambient P=100.7kPa, Tair=23.9C Zero Air at 100psi, LBL Air 1.9497 at 1700 CH4 Zero Offset: -.002ppm CH4 Span Offset: .167ppm Notes: Powered up twice successfully and synced waveforms within 20 seconds. Actual laser temperature = 25.6C, set laser temperature = 26.C. |
3283 | 2018-01-12 | Lab none | Adjusted | Lab none | This 7700 has an unlocked reference signal (the reference and signal waveforms were not synced). I talked with James at Licor and changed the Laser Start Temp from 29.8 to 25.5 in the factory settings (Help > About > Factory). To find the new start temperature, I did a Wide Scan (Help > About > Wide Scan > Start), which goes through temperature 0-50 deg C. There is a graph and table of results, where you can pinpoint the reference lock temperature. During the Wide Scan, some of the factory settings changed, so I reset those (changed Delta 1 from 100 back to 41). Licor has the original factory settings on file. |
3279 | 2018-01-10 | Lab none | Adjusted | Lab none | Checked the sensor in the lab, and the temperature reading was fine. However, there was an error "Reference signal is UNLOCKED," and CH4 was reading ~0.05 umol/mol. The diagnostics tab showed that the signal and reference waveforms were not synced. I changed the temperature control to manual, adjusted the laser temperature from 30.6 to 26.0 so that the waveforms were synced, and changed the temperature control back to automatic. |
3219 | 2017-11-30 | Lab none | Notes | Lab none | Temperature was reading -9C after we installed it at SW, so we brought it back to the lab...The temperature was fine earlier this week when I calibrated it. |
3203 | 2017-11-27 | Lab none | Calibration | Lab none | Calibration Location: Lab Last calibration: 2017-03-22 RSSI=71%, Optical RH=7% Ambient P=100.9kPa, Tair=22.4C Zero Air at 350psi, LBL Air 1.9497 at 1750 CH4 Zero Offset: 0.016ppm CH4 Span Offset: 0.005ppm Notes: |
3191 | 2017-11-09 | Lab none | Repair | Lab none | Replaced thermocouple assembly on 7700. Temperature reading changed from 9999 to 24.5 deg C. |
3164 | 2017-10-26 | Sherman Wetland Gas Analyzer CH4 | Removed | Lab none | Removed from SW tower for calibration and because the temperature sensor was broken (reading 9999). Replaced by sn TG1-0421. |
