RKI Instruments Eagle Series - Manual (Page 24)

17 • Alarms Eagle Instruction Manual
Low Flow Alarm
If the Eagle’s sample system becomes restricted or blocked (for
example plugged probe, fouled filter, pinched tubing):
• The message FAIL LOW FLOW LEVEL replaces the normal screen.
• The buzzer sounds a steady tone.
• The alarm lights are on continuously.
• The pump automatically shuts off to prevent damage.
Correct the flow blockage. Press the RESET/SILENCE button to turn
off the alarms and restart the pump. If low flow conditions still exist,
the Eagle will go into alarm again. If the condition cannot be corrected
immediately, take the Eagle out of service to a non-hazardous area.
Low Battery Alarm
When the battery charge drops near the lower limit, the Eagle
displays the following screen (
BAT flashes). For alkaline batteries, you
have approximately 3 hours of use remaining; for Ni-Cd batteries you
have approximately 15 minutes of use remaining.
When the battery voltage drops to the minimum limit, the following
screen displays, the alarm lights are on continuously, and the buzzer
sounds a steady tone. The Eagle is not operational as a gas monitoring
device when this screen displays.
NOTE: If you are using the data logging accessory and the Eagle goes
into Low Battery ALARM, shut off the Eagle in order to save
the current data logging session.
