Trimmed and folded dimensions: 4.125 (w) x 5.875 (h)
Activating the Detector
Press and hold
C
for 5 seconds.
Note: Once activated the detector cannot be deactivated, except after a
battery life-ending alarm. Refer to
Safety Shutdown Mode
.
Performing a Self Test
Note: The self-test must be performed in an atmosphere that is free of
hazardous gas.
After a self-test is performed, wait 30 seconds before using to ensure
the detector accurately detects gas.
The self-test is activated prior to any other function. Prior to each day’s use,
a self-test of the detector must be performed.
When
Test
displays on the LCD, a self-test is required.
When the self-test is performed and passes,
u
displays to confirm the tests
are successful.
To perform a self-test, press and hold
C
for approximately 1 second. to
initiate the self-test. Confirm that the following tests are performed:
1. The detector emits one beep, one flash, and one vibration.
2. All LCD elements display.
3.
Test
flashes while the sensor integrity and battery life are tested.
4. The low and high alarm setpoints display.
5. If an alarm has occurred in the last 24 hours, the LCD displays the
maximum gas exposure value and the hours that have lapsed since
the exposure.
6.
Prn
and flash.
Note: If a self-test is activated without Test being displayed, steps #1-3 are
bypassed.
Self-Test Pass
When the self-test is successful, the detector emits a short beep and a
single vibration.
u
then displays to verify that the detector passed the self-test.
Twenty hours after performing the self-test,
Test
displays again to indicate
that a self-test is required.
Self-Test Fail
If the self-test fails, the detector emits five short beeps and flashes before
displaying a blank screen. The LCD then returns to the normal operating
screen and again displays
Test
.
Repeat the self-test.
Note: If the self-test fails three consecutive times, the LCD displays a blank
screen and the detector deactivates. Refer to
Safety Shutdown Mode
.
Automatic Battery Test
The battery is automatically tested every 2 hours. If the battery test fails,
another automatic test is initiated 30 minutes later.
Note: After five consecutive battery test failures, the LCD displays a blank
screen and the detector deactivates. Refer to
Safety Shutdown Mode
.
Detector Life-Remaining Clock
The detector life-remaining clock indicates how much longer the detector
will operate. The LCD displays the countdown value of the remaining
months, days, and then hours.
The detector continues to operate for a maximum of 8 hours after the
detector life-ending alarm initiates. Press
C
to deactivate the detector. For
more information, refer to
Alarms
.
Safety Shutdown Mode
The LCD displays a blank screen when initiating safety shutdown mode.
The detector beeps, flashes, and vibrates rapidly (twice per second) until
the battery loses power. To deactivate the detector before the battery loses
power, press
C
. Contact
BW Technologies by Honeywell
.
The detector initiates safety shutdown mode if the
•
self-test fails three consecutive times,
•
automatic battery test fails five consecutive times, or
•
detector has not been manually deactivated within 8 hours of initiating
the detector life-ending alarm.
