Performing the response test

1.

Exhale into the bottom of the oxygen detector for a few seconds.

2.

Stop exhaling into the bottom of the detector, then verify that the reading on the
voltmeter decreased from the normal reading, 434 mV.

NOTE:

If the reading does not decrease, calibrate the detector as described in
“Calibration” on page 13.

3.

Remove the voltmeter leads from the amplifier test points, then secure the junction
box cover to the junction box.

4.

When the display reading rises above the decreasing alarm setpoint, return the
controller to normal operation.

Quarterly

Calibrate the oxygen transmitter as described in “Calibration” on page 13 of this manual.
See the calibration frequency discussion in “Calibration Frequency” on page 13 to
determine if a quarterly calibration schedule fits your needs.

• Controller indicates a

fail condition.

• The transmitter wiring

is disconnected or
misconnected.

• The plug-in sensor is

not properly plugged
into the sockets in the
detector housing body.

• The transmitter’s zero

reading is low enough
to cause a fail
condition.

• The transmitter is

malfunctioning.

1. Verify that the transmitter wiring is

correct and secure.

2. Confirm that the plug-in sensor is

installed properly.

3. Perform a fresh air adjustment. A full

calibration is recommended

4. If the fail condition continues, replace

the plug-in sensor as described later
in this section.

5. If the fail condition continues, contact
