by
the
working
environment,
always
take
care
during
installation
and
perform
several
test
calls.
Important
Note
on
Sensor
Testing
The
gas
and
CO
detector
should
be
functionally
tested
every
6
‐
12
months
(depending
on
location).
The
gas
sensor
can
only
be
tested
with
calibrated
test
gas,
never
test
using
neat
gas
as
this
will
poison
the
sensor.
The
CO
sensor
can
only
be
tested
with
calibrated
test
CO,
this
will
take
less
than
1
minute
to
trigger.
For
test
gas
supplies
please
contact
Duomo.

voltage
falls
and
stays
below
a
preset
level
for
7
consecutive
