Calibration management for volatile organic compound detector
First Claim
1. A method for calibrating a volatile organic compound (VOC) detector, comprising:
- receiving an initiation request indicating a gas concentration level amount to be used for calibrating a VOC detector, wherein the VOC detector is configured to test whether valves and other components in petrochemical facilities are leaking;
providing gas according to the gas concentration level amount to the VOC detector;
providing the VOC detector with the gas concentration level amount via a wireless connection; and
receiving a calibration log from the VOC detector via the wireless connection, wherein the calibration log comprises an identifier of the VOC detector, the gas concentration level amount, an electronic signature of the provided gas, a date indicating when the VOC detector received the gas concentration level amount and the gas according to the gas concentration level amount, wherein the electronic signature is derived by combusting the provided gas.

Abstract
A method for calibrating a volatile organic compound (VOC) detector. In one implementation, an initiation request may be received indicating a gas concentration level amount to be used for calibrating a VOC detector. A gas may be provided to the VOC detector according to the gas concentration level amount. The VOC detector may be provided with the gas concentration level amount. A calibration log may be received from the VOC detector. The calibration log may comprise an identifier of the VOC detector, the gas concentration level amount, and a date indicating when the VOC detector received the gas concentration level amount and the gas according to the gas concentration level amount.
