A combustion product indicating device for use as a calibration or surveying instrument is disclosed. The device senses the presence of combustion and provides an indication of the same including an indication of the amount of combustion sensed within predetermined limits. An ionization detector is utilized to sense the products of combustion and provide an output indicative thereof, which output is coupled through a field effect transistor to a pair of operational amplifiers, which amplifiers function as followers with the latter amplifier having a reference input that may be varied to adjust the reading of a meter, which meter receives the output from the operational amplifiers. Optional circuitry is also provided for providing a voltage output that varies within predetermined limits and is indicative of the amount of combustion sensed. A method for calibrating combustion detectors is also disclosed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1.
A combustion product indicating device, comprising: ionization detection means providing an output indicative of products of combustion sensed by said detection means; a field effect transistor for receiving said output from said ionization detection means and providing an output reflective thereof; at least one operational amplifier connected to receive said output from said field effect transistor, said operational amplifier also receiving a reference voltage; and indicator means connected with said operational amplifier and responsive to an output therefrom indicating the amount of products of combustion sensed by said ionization detection means within predetermined limits, said indicator means including circuitry for providing a variable voltage output indicative of the amount of products of combustion sensed by said ionization means with said circuitry including a pair of series connected operational amplifiers, the latter of which is connected with a pair of series connected transistors.
2.
The combustion indicating device of claim 1 wherein said device includes a pair of series connected operational amplifies, the former of which receives said output from said field effect transistor and the latter of which receives said reference voltage.
3.
The combustion product indicating device of claim 1 wherein said indicating means includes a 100.
mu.
meter for indicating the amount of products of combustion sensed by said ionization detection means.
4.
The combustion product indicating device of claim 3 wherein said device includes a potentiometer for adjusting said reference voltage supplied to said operational amplifier whereby said meter reading can be adjusted.
5.
The combustion product indicating device of claim 4 wherein said meter and potentiometer are access mounted with respect to the remainder of said device.
6.
The combustion product indicating device of claim 1 wherein said device is positioned adjacent to combustion detection equipment for calibrating the same
