With gas mixtures the components are weighted according to their
proporational volumes.
The cross interference with a gas mixture can be determined in advance if the
concentration of the individual background gases is known.
Example:
Cross sensitivity calculation for a gas mixture:
The gas to be measured consists of 10 % CO
2
, 40 % of N
2
, and 50%
of Ar.

: -0.27 x 10% = -0.027
Ar: -0.22x5O%= -0.11
TOTAL CROSS INTERFERENCE -0.137
Calculation of the zero value:
(0% 0
2
) - (Cross Interference Value) = Zero Point Value
0% -(-0.137) = +0.137%0
