Bump Test
For optimal performance, Honeywell recommends bump testing detectors before
each use. For more information, refer to the appropriate detector operator
manual.
NOTE: When the calibration is performed in gang arrangement, especially when
using “sticky gases”(NH3, Cl2, HCN, SO2), the flow demand regulator must have a
capacity of at least 3000ml/min in order to meet the system requirements. If the
regulator doesn't have enough capacity, then IntelliDox will show an alarm in the
LCD. It is recommended using the following regulator models: REG-DF-1, REG-DF-2,
or REG-DF-3. These can all be found in the price list catalog provided by Honeywell.
A bump test is a procedure that confirms a detector’s ability to respond to target gases by
exposing the detector to a known gas concentration. The module supports two types of
bump test:
1. FastBump, an accelerated test that performs the bump procedure and event log
transfer only; and
2. Standard Bump Test, a test that performs the bump procedure and other procedures
specified to occur automatically on insertion, such as datalog transfers or firmware
updates.
Before You Begin
1. Read and understand bump test information in the appropriate detector operator
manual.
2. Read and understand
Bump Test Guidelines
in this section.
3. Verify that the detector is activated.
4. Verify that the detector is not in a low-battery state.
5. Bump test only in a normal environment that is 20.9% v/v O
2
and free of hazardous
gas. Do not operate the docking module in a hazardous area. Failure to adhere to this
guideline can result in possible personal injury and/or property damage.
