Text description for Figure 7.1

Example of calibration results tracking for a CO analyser

The figure is an example of a graph showing calibration results for a period of four years. Both the upper and lower acceptable limits of measurement are also shown. The graph shows results in June 2005 fell below the lower acceptable limit. As time passed, results were all within the acceptable range.
