Type of gas to be monitored, warning /alarm thresholds as well as corresponding output
currents are specified for each specific detector in its calibration certificate.
Operation of a gas detector consists in continuous measurements of gas concentration within the detector
vicinity as well as periodic tests of the gas sensor. Results of the foregoing operations are used to define
operation modes described in the following sections.
1.2.1
Operation
It is the mode of operation when the detector works properly and takes regular measurements.
Concentration of gases is below the hazardous levels and no irregularities in operation of the device are
detected. Operation of the detector needs no particular attention except for the following:
verification of the detector indications as frequently as possible (daily inspection is
recommended),
regular preventive maintenance and inspections to be carried out by a serviceman (see Section
9.4.3).
