Abstract
A device for remotely calibrating leak sensors is disclosed. The leak sensor calibration device includes a reservoir for storing a fluid calibrant, a conduit in flow communication with the reservoir, an outlet nozzle, an air supply source, and a valve mechanism. A portion of the conduit defines a dosing chamber for storing a measured quantity of the calibrant, and the outlet nozzle is in flow communication with the dosing chamber. The air supply source is adapted to pressurize the measured quantity of calibrant stored in the dosing chamber. The valve mechanism is adapted to eject the measured quantity of calibrant stored in the dosing chamber to the atmosphere through the outlet nozzle.
