Responding to Battery Alarms
WARNING: The GX-2003 is not operational as a gas monitoring
device during a dead battery alarm. Take the Model GX-
2003 to a non-hazardous area and replace or recharge the
batteries as described in “Replacing or Recharging the
Batteries” on page 70.
The Model GX-2003 is fully functional during a low battery warning.
However, only a limited amount of operating time remains,
approximately 1 - 2 hours. The amount of time depends on how often
the LCD backlight is used and how often the unit is responding to
alarm conditions. Recharge the battery pack or replace the alkaline
batteries as soon as possible as described in “Replacing or Recharging
the Batteries” on page 70.
NOTE: Alarms and the back light feature consume battery power
and reduce the amount of operating time remaining.
Responding to Sensor Failure Alarms
1. Determine which sensor has triggered the sensor failure alarm.
2. Try calibrating the sensor first, as described in “Calibration Mode”
on page 32 before replacing it.
3. If the sensor failure continues, replace the sensor as described in
“Replacing a Sensor” on page 74.
4. If the sensor failure condition continues after you have replaced
the sensor, contact RKI Instruments, Inc. for further instructions.
