local regulations for explosive atmospheres.
%LEL An indication of a gas concentration expressed as a percentage of the LEL
LFL Lower Flammable Limit, see LEL
%LFL An indication of the gas concentration as a percentage of the LFL
LTEL Long Term Exposure Limit, the limit of exposure for a person to a gas over a period typically
between 8 and 24 hours, calculated as a TWA value.
Modbus A serial communications protocol published by the ModbusIDA for use with programmable
logic controllers (PLCs). It is a commonly available means of connecting
industrial electronic devices.
ppm Parts per million, an indication of gas concentration as a fraction of the overall sample.
10000 ppm is the equivalent of 1% of volume.
RFI Radio Frequency Interference
%RH Relative Humidity, the limit of exposure for a person to a gas over a period typically
between 5 and 20 minutes, calculated as a continuous average.
RoHS Restrictions of Hazardous Substances, EU Commission directive 2002/95/EC on the
restrictions of usage of specified chemicals in the production of electronic products and
components
RTC Real Time Clock. An internal clock which maintains a count of the current date and time,
including during periods when the unit is unpowered.
RTU Remote Terminal Unit, a transmission method used by the Modbus Communications
Protocol
STEL Short Term Exposure Limit, the limit of exposure for a person to a gas over a period typically
between 5 and 20 minutes, calculated as a continuous average.
