Maintenance

This section describes maintenance procedures. It includes preventive maintenance,
troubleshooting, and component replacement procedures.

Preventive Maintenance

This section describes a preventive maintenance schedule to ensure the optimum
performance of the oxygen transmitter. It includes daily, monthly, and quarterly
procedures.

Daily

Verify a display reading of 20.9% oxygen at the controller. Investigate significant changes
in the display reading.

Monthly

This procedure describes a test to verify that the oxygen transmitter responds properly to
oxygen deficiency.

NOTE:

Performing a response test on the oxygen transmitter may cause alarms. Be sure
to put the controller into its calibration mode or disable external alarms before
performing this test

Preparing for the response test

1.

Place the controller into its calibration mode or disable external alarms.

2.

Verify that the controller display reading for the channel you are testing is 20.9%
oxygen.

If the display reading is not 20.9% oxygen, set the fresh air reading of the transmitter
as described in “Start Up” on page 8, then continue this procedure.

WARNING: Do not remove the detector housing cap or junction box cover while the

circuits are energized unless the area is determined to be non-hazardous.
Keep the detector housing cap and junction box cover tightly closed during
operation.

3.

Unscrew and remove the junction box cover.

4.

Set a voltmeter to read in the millivolt (mV) range.

5.

Plug the voltmeter leads into the test points on the amplifier. Plug the positive lead
into the red + test point; plug the negative lead into the black - test point.
