1.5  MODIFICATIONS AND SUBSTITUTIONS 

Due to an ongoing development program, AMC reserves the right to substitute components and 
change specifications at any time without incurring any obligations. 
 

1.6  GLOSSARY 

Act Delay 

The delay in seconds between the gas concentration reaching an alarm 
setpoint, and the corresponding alarm level activating. 

Alarm 

Alarm  is  an  audible,  visual,  or  physical  presentation  designed  to  warn  the 
instrument user that a specific level of a dangerous gas/vapor concentration 
has been reached or exceeded. 

Calibration 

Calibration is the procedure used to adjust the instrument for proper response. 

Calibration 
Gas 

Calibration Gas is a gas of known concentration(s) used to set the instrument 
span.  

Gas 
Concentration 

Gas Concentration is measured in: 

  PPM  

  %LEL  

  % Volume  

Hysteresis 

A user specified difference, or delta, from an alarm setpoint.  Used to prevent 
undesired repeated toggling of alarm activation. The concentration must return 
above/below the se/

– hysteresis (based on a decreasing or increasing 

alarm type) before an alarm level can become inactive. Hysteresis  does not 
affect the activation (only de-activation) of an alarm, which is based solely on 
the alarm setpoint. 

LEL 

Lower  explosive  limit  is  the  lowest  concentration  (percentage)  of  a  gas  or  a 
vapor in air capable of combusting in the presence of an ignition source (arc, 
flame, heat). 

Min Run 

The minimum time in seconds that an alarm level will remain active, even if the 
gas concentration has returned above/below the se/

– hysteresis (based 

on a decreasing or increasing alarm type). 

PPM 

Parts Per Million (1% volume = 10,000PPM) 

Percent 

by 

volume 

Concentration of gas in a mixture expressed as a percentage of total volume. 

Span 

Full range of a sensor i.e. a CO sensor with a full range of 0-100 PPM has a 
100 PPM span. 

T90 

Response Time in seconds to achieve 90% gas concentration reading. This a 
typical  calibration  point  that  allows  for  sensor  aging,  but  tends  to  be  less 
accurate than a T99 calibration, 

T99 

Response Time in seconds to achieve 99% gas concentration reading. This is 
a more accurate calibration point. 

Zero 
Buffering 

Zero  buffering  is  transmitter  function  which  forces  the  gas  concentration 
reading  to  zero  when  sensor  is  exposed  to  low  concentration  of  a  gas.  The 
zero buffer is indicated in the sensor specification. 

Zero Gas 

Zero gas is gas in which the target gas is not present. The presence of oxygen 
is required. Clean air is an excellent source for zero calibration. A known gas 
concentration can be entered during zero calibration.
