[0040] Figure 1 A schematic view of a calibration readback tool 100 of a gas detector according to an embodiment of the present application is shown, which will be described in detail below in conjunction with Figure 1 .
[0041] As shown in Figure 1 , the calibration readback tool 100 includes a gas source 110, a gas distributor 120, a plurality of calibration gas covers 130, and a plurality of sets of flow meters 140 and valves 150. The gas source 110 is used to provide calibration gas with known composition and concentration. The gas distributor 120 is connected to the gas source 110 and is used to divide the calibration gas into multiple branches for output. Specifically, the gas distributor 120 is provided with a first gas inlet 121 and a plurality of first gas outlets 122, wherein the first gas inlet 121 is in communication with each first gas outlet 122 and is connected to the gas source 110.
