QX/T533—2019
7.1.2.1 Check whether the surface of the optical head lighting lens is clean and free of dust, mud, etc. If necessary, use dry and clean compressed air to clean the surface of the lens to remove dust, or use deionized water, absorbent cotton and dust-free wipes to carefully clean the surface of the lens to avoid scratches. 7.1.2.2 Check the transparency of the optical path of the sight. Point the sight toward the light. Use your eyes to observe whether the inside is clean. The optical path should be unobstructed and free of willow catkins, spider webs, insect eggs and other debris. If necessary, use a brush and dry and clean compressed air to clean the inside. 7.1.3 Operation inspection

Adjust the bracket so that the sighting tube is aligned with the light exit hole of the integrating sphere.
7.2.3 Calibration of the instrument to be calibrated
7.2.3.1 Check the instrument control box and record the gain value of the instrument to be calibrated before calibration (for CE-318TS9 and CE-318TP9 models, only steps 7.2.3.3 and 7.2.3.6 need to be performed in sequence). 7.2.3.2 Use the instrument control box to adjust the instrument to the manual sky scattered radiation channel observation state, and adjust the gain value so that the signal value obtained by the photometer at each wavelength is between 10000 and 30000. 7.2.3.3 By adjusting the instrument control box, one dark current value observation and no less than 20 sky scattered radiation measurements should be performed at each wavelength, and the calibration data should be saved.
7.2.3.4 Check the calibration data. If the signal value exceeds 30,000, turn off one of the light sources of the integrating sphere in sequence and clear the original calibration data in the instrument control box. After the light source is stable, repeat steps 7.2.3.3 and 7.2.3.4 until the signal value does not exceed 30,000 and the calibration is completed. 3

Check the relative deviation between the data of each wavelength each time. The ultraviolet wavelength (340nm and 380nm) should be less than 1%, and the other wavelengths should be less than 0.5%. If the requirements cannot be met, the calibration should be carried out again on a selected day. b) Perform the least squares linear fit on the observed values ​​and the atmospheric mass number, and eliminate the discrete values ​​outside the interval of 3 times the standard deviation of the fitting straight line distance obtained by formula (2) (the eliminated data should not exceed 5% of the original data). Obtain at least 10 sets of calibration coefficients for the instrument to be calibrated, and calculate the average value of the calibration coefficients for each wavelength as the final calibration coefficient for the instrument to be calibrated.

Remove singular values ​​(values ​​where the observed signal value is 0 or exceeds 30,000). b) Calculate the ratio of the measured signal values ​​of each wavelength between the instrument to be calibrated and the standard instrument. The relative deviation of the ultraviolet wavelength ratio should be less than 2%, and the relative deviation of the ratios of other wavelengths should be less than 1%. If the requirements cannot be met, calibration observations should be carried out on another day. Obtain at least 5 valid data ratios for each wavelength, calculate the average value of the ratios of each wavelength, and substitute them into formula (3) to obtain the calibration coefficient of the instrument to be calibrated.
