ambient air flow.
NOTE:
CD-6B must be tested or calibrated at regular intervals in accordance with the requirements of the National

Testing the Alarm Relays
NOTE:
The CO
2
concentration required to activate the alarm relays depends on the alarm relay settings.
1.
Connect the 5% vol. cylinder of carbon dioxide to the regulator.
2.
Check the pressure gauge on the regulator. If you have 25-psi or less, you will need to replace the gas
canister. Check the expiration date on the cylinder, if it has passed the expiration date the cylinder should be
replaced.
3.
Place the Test Hood over the CO
2
sensor. Turn on the regulator to start the gas flow.
4.
The alarm relays should activate according to the settings.
5.
With the display function turned “On” and the CO
2
concentration reaching the Alarm 1 Relay setting, the
display will flash between “ALr1 and “current gas reading”. The buzzer will sound indicating “Alarm” if the
buzzer is turned “On”. With the display function turned off the display does not show the CO
2
concentration
but will show “ALr1” when the Alarm 1 relay is activated.
NOTE:
42T
If the Alarm relay fails to operate within 2 minutes, there are four possibilities:
a.
The detector has the alarm relay disabled (diS). Set the desired Alarm relay to 1.5% and repeat the
test.
