7. IN THE EVENT OF AN ALARM
• In the event of gas concentrations exceeding the
alarm thresholds for any gas being monitored, the
T4 will activate the alarm signals.
• Alarm signals – The red and blue alarm LEDs will
flash, the sounder will emit a tone, the internal
vibrator alarm will activate. The operator screen will
display the gas in alarm and alarm level.
•
When the gas level returns to normal, press the
operator button. This will reset your T4 unit to
normal run mode. If gas levels are still in alarm, the
button will have no effect.
• The T4 will also indicate if the battery has less
than 30 minutes of life remaining, the sounder will
emit a double blip every 5 seconds and the display
will flash the battery empty icon. When the alarm
sounds the user should move to a safe area before
the 30 minutes expires.
