Maintenance
6.1
Alarm test
An alarm test can be performed to ensure the Ax60K is operating. Use this procedure:
[1]
Press and hold down the
Accept/Test
button for 5–10 seconds.
The Ax60K runs a 5-second alarm test, during which:
– the CO
2
Alarm indicators illuminate
– the CO
2
Alarm strobe light illuminates
– the CO
2
Alarm sounder operates
– the CO
2
Sensor indicators illuminate
– the CO
2
Sensor internal buzzer operates
[2]
Either press and hold down
Accept/Test
to stop the alarm test or wait 5 seconds
for the alarm test to stop automatically.
6.2
Faults
Faults are announced by the
Fault
indicator on the CO
2
Alarm. During normal operation
the
Fault
indicator is off. If the
Fault
indicator flashes once per second, this means that
the CO
2
Sensor has a fault. Power off the CO
2
Sensor unit and call a service engineer.
6.3
Calibration
The Ax60K CO
2
sensor is factory calibrated and does not require periodic calibration
adjustment. However, it is possible for an authorised service engineer to adjust the
sensor calibration should this be required. For more information refer to the
Ax60
Service Manual P0159-803
.
6.4
Cleaning
Analox recommends periodic cleaning of Ax60K enclosures with a slightly damp cloth.
CAUTION: THE CO
2
SENSOR UNIT MUST BE PROTECTED FROM INGRESS OF WATER.
6.5
Protection kit
CO
2
Sensors should be mounted at low level and are therefore vulnerable to accidental
damage. To protect the CO
2
Sensor, Analox recommends fitting a Sensor Protection Kit,
part number P0159-4305K, shown below (not to scale). The splashguard is fitted on the
outside of the sensor opening. The sensor protector is wall mounted using the fixing kit.
