Display Details

When a detected gas has a Gas Reading (5) at or above its alarm thresholds, the Gas Identifier (6) for that particular gas will 
flash and a warning symbol 

 will appear at the top of the display along with the associated Alarm Condition (1).

Detector Life Countdown - Once activated, the detector will display 36 months of Life Remaining (2). Detector will continue to 
countdown and display the number of months remaining until 30 days remain. Display will then begin showing the number 
of days remaining until end of life.

During a calibration or bump test, the Calibration/Test Mode icon (3) will appear and flash indicating it is time to apply gas.

The Battery Indicator (4) is displayed as a battery icon which is solid as long as the battery is not low. The battery won’t need 
charging or replacing during the life of the detector.  When the battery approaches end of life it will proceed through the 
following steps:

 

Warning:

 Users must familiarize themselves with the display icons in both non-alarm and alarm states.

 

Warning:

 If the display is missing icons, or cannot be clearly read, discontinue use and contact GCT.

 

Warning:

 The IR LEL sensor will not detect hydrogen (H

2

) or acetylene (C

2

H

2

) gases; however, due to their cross sensitive 

nature, the CO sensor will go into alarm well below 10% LEL.

1/3 of Battery life remaining: Battery Indicator appears as outline only
20 Minutes remaining: Battery Indicator appears as outline only, single beep/flash
10 Minutes remaining: Battery Indicator outline flashes, single beep/flash
5 Minutes remaining: continuous beep/flash every 5 seconds
