Innovators in Gas Detection

4.12 Test Sensors & AlarmsIt is recommended that proper alarm function be verified prior to use by applying calibration or alarmcheck bump gas. Alarm check gas (Test 1A) should be used only for instruments which contain one ormore of the four (4) standard sensors (O2, LEL, CO or H2S). For other configurations use calibrationgas with instrument in normal operating mode. After testing, remember to clear the peak values, or ifTWA alarms are “on”, clear memory. Test low flow alarm by placing finger over inlet when in pumpmode. If instrument does not go into low flow alarm when inlet is blocked, instrument should beoperated in diffusion mode after entering the “USER SETUP” mode and changing the pump statusconfiguration to “PUMP OFF”. Instrument should be serviced as soon as possible to fix the problem.Instructions for using alarm check gas (part no. Test 1A)

Turn monitor on in fresh air and allow to go into normal operating mode. Break shipping tab off canister. Attach blue balloon on to black disk on Alarm Check Gas hose. Insert red end of hose into hole in canister nozzle. Place finger over the end of the hose (or pinch hose) and pulse trigger so that gas fills the balloon to its

natural shape. Do not over-inflate balloon. Insert other end of hose into air intake. All channels should be in alarm for a few seconds while gas passes over sensors. Check display to

confirm proper operation of visual alarms for each gas. Confirm proper operation of visual and audiblealarms.

Remove hose from monitor and allow alarm check gas to be purged from monitor with fresh air. Clear Peaks or, if TWA alarms are “on”, clear memory

Innovators in Gas Detection

4.13Continuous monitoringIt is highly recommended that the supplied dust filter (part # 16PFC) be attached at all times, when inpump mode, if the instrument is being used in a dusty environment. Keeping dust out increasesinstrument life while lowering maintenance costs.

4.14 Remote Sampling (Pretesting)Remote areas and confined spaces may be sampled in pump mode prior to entry by connecting thesupplied 10-foot or longer sampling hose to the inlet fitting. The 10 foot, or longer, sampling hose isusually used for pretesting. Continuous monitoring with the sampling hose attached will reduce thenumber of hours of run time available.The following procedure is recommended:

Turn instrument on and allow to enter normal operating mode. Be sure you are in “PUMP” mode. (“P” indicated in center of line 4 of display). Test alarm function with gas as indicated above. Test low flow alarm as indicated in paragraph 4.11 above. Connect sampling hose to instrument. Place hose in area to be sampled. Wait two minutes for full response. Take readings Retrieve hose and disconnect from instrument

Hose lengths up to 100 feet may be used for pre-testing. Add one second per foot to the two-minutewait for full response.

4.15 Alarms

Appendix F provides details of the various alarm modes. In the event of a gas alarm,evacuate the area immediately. Investigate the cause of the alarm only when you aresafely out of the potentially hazardous area. The gas and level that generated the alarmcan be indicated by accessing the “Peak” mode function.

A “warning” low gas alarm indicates a gas concentration above the low alarm set-point and isindicated by 3 beeps from the horn, flashing LED, flashing gas range of the sensor in alarm,and display of the word “WARNING.” Voice will also indicate “WARNING” except for O2,which will be indicated by “DANGER.”

A “danger” high gas alarm indicates a gas concentration above the high alarm set-point andis indicated by 3 beeps from the horn, flashing LED, flashing gas range of the sensor inalarm, and display of the word “DANGER.”

Low flow alarm is indicated by a continuous audible alarm, flashing LED, and the words“LOW FLOW” displayed

Low battery alarm is indicated by 2 short beeps from the horn every 15 to 20 seconds,together with the words “LOW BATTERY’ on the display. It occurs 15 to 30 minutes prior tobattery-depleted alarm and shutdown.

Battery depleted alarm is indicated by 5 audible beeps, display of “BATTERY DEPLETED”and shutdown.

5.0 CALIBRATION

Innovators in Gas Detection5.0 CALIBRATION

5.10 Calibration frequency It is important to verify accuracy on a regular basis to guard against any unexpected loss of

sensitivity due to mechanical damage, immersion, aging, or exposure of the sensors topoisons (such as high concentrations of combustible gas, tetra-ethel-lead, sulfides or siliconecontaining lubricants) present in the atmosphere being monitored.

The safest possible course of action is to expose the sensors to a known concentration testgas before each day’s use. This “bump” test takes only a few seconds to accomplish. It is notnecessary to make a calibration adjustment unless readings are off by more than 15% of theapplied gas concentration. If this procedure is followed, the calibration interval can be up to90 days.

If your calibration procedures do not permit daily checking of the sensors, Lumidorrecommends the following procedure to establish a safe and prudent check schedule.Initially, over a period of a few days, check the response daily to be sure there is nothing inyour atmosphere that is poisoning the sensors. If the instrument displays correctconcentration levels after two (2) weeks on this schedule, the calibration interval may beextended to two weeks. If the instrument do not require calibration, after two (2) months onthis schedule, the calibration interval may be extended to thirty (30) days. WARNING: Thisdoes not preclude testing with gas on a regular basis.

Innovators in Gas Detection

5.11 Calibration procedure (when all calibration gases are in a single canister)

CAUTION: Calibration should be carried out only in a clean air environment, known to befree of contaminants.CAUTION: Be sure the calibration gas is within the expiration date indicated.

Use mode button to scroll through mode functions to “user setup.” Depress on/off button to enter “user setup”. Use mode button to scroll to “calibrate?” Depress on/off button to enter the calibration mode. Follow instructions on instrument’s display. Instrument will first complete a “zeroing” countdown from to zero (0) Apply calibration gas when “apply gas” is displayed.(Fig.5-1) Instrument will display “calibrating” and count down to zero (0) When “cal complete” is displayed, observe that all sensors calibrated are displayed below

“cal complete”. Remove gas and turn off gas flow. Instrument will go into a “Purging” countdown to zero (0) After purging, instrument automatically clears Peak, TWA and STEL values, so it is not

necessary to manually clear memory. This calibration process is now complete.

6.0 PROGRAMMING THE MICROMAX PRO

Innovators in Gas Detection

6.10 Programming Options

Powerful programming options allow user to customize the instrument in accordance withhis organization’s safety policy. Some options are available in the user setup mode(Appendix D) but the majority of these options are available only in supervisory mode(Appendix E). ALL PROGRAMMING OPTIONS CAN ALSO BE ACCOMPLISHEDTHROUGH THE MAXPRO SOFTWARE, USING THE UPLOAD FUNCTION. THIS IS BYFAR THE MOST CONVENIENT AND EFFICIENT METHOD AND IS STRONGLYRECOMMENDED IN ALL CASES WHERE A COMPUTER IS AVAILABLE (For uploadingprocedures please refer to paragraph 7.17 below). To enter the supervisory mode depressand hold the mode button for five (5) seconds, during the “TESTING” phase of the start-upsequence. The general structure of the supervisory mode is to depress the mode button tobypass an option, or use the on/off button to select and enter the option’s menu. Where amenu has two options only, (for example “on” or “off”), depressing the on/off switch oncesimultaneously accomplishes three functions; entering the menu, changing the option andexiting the menu.The following are all programmable.

Innovators in Gas DetectionThe following are all programmable:

LEL gas type Date format Date/Time Daylight saving time Datalog frequency Auto-zero during start-up sequence Display last calibration date displayed during start-up sequence Latching or non-latching alarms Calibration gas level High alarm set-points Low alarm set-points Calibration due date displayed during start-up sequence Calibration due frequency Language choice TWA alarm choice Return to default settings. Jump to calibration mode

Innovators in Gas Detection6.11 Select LEL gas type

The LEL sensor is designed to detect a wide range of combustible gases withinherently different characteristics. To obtain the most accurate results it isnecessary to calibrate with the target gas, or a gas with similar characteristics.This programming option allows user to calibrate with methane but obtain gasreadings equivalent to Methane, Pentane, Propane, Hexane or Xylene.Appendix A, paragraph M, provides data on the relative span of many commoncombustible gases. The relative span for each of these gas options is as follows:Methane100Propane 63Pentane 50Hexane 46Xylene 31From these five gases, select the one with a relative span value closest to therelative span of your target gas. For example, if your target gas is benzene(relative span 44 per Appendix A, paragraph M), select Hexane whose relativespan of 46 is closest to that of benzene. To program the instrument, enter thesupervisory mode (6.10 above) and depress the on/off button to enter the“Select LEL GAS TYPE” menu. Use the mode button to select the gas type andthe on/off button to exit this menu sequence.

Before uploading to an instrument, be sure that the time zone and comm. port are correct. This isaccomplished in "select port/time zone", located in the "transfer menu".

7.17 Uploading the MicroMax Pro From the transfer menu select “modify instrument parameters”. The “modify instrument parameters” screen (Fig.7-4 below) consists of an upper portion with twenty

(20) parameters each of which must have accurate information.Serial Number: This cannot be changed in the fieldMFG Date: This cannot be changed in the field.Current Date: Make sure this is correct

Innovators in Gas Detection

Time Zone: Choose the appropriate time zone. Example”05 Eastern”.Daylight Savings Time: Select “Yes” or “No” as appropriate.Language: Select one of the four language options.Instrument Number: This allows end-user to input his own ID number, separate and apart fromthe assigned serial number.

Current Time: Current time is based on a 24 hour clock like military time so 1.30 PM is enteredas 13.30.Word-Wrap Memory: This means that only the most recent data is retained in memory. Forexample, if the datalogging interval is set at 5 minutes, only the most recent 200 hours of data willbe retained in memory. If the interval is set at 1 minute, only the most recent 40 hours areretained.Datalogging interval: Select 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 minute intervals. If one (1) minute is selected datawill be displayed on a minute by minute basis on the histogram and so on.LEL gas type: The default setting is methane and this should not be changed unless it isunsuitable for monitoring the target gas.Auto Zero: This has to do with whether it is desired to have the auto-zero function in the start-upmenu. “Yes” will activate auto zeroing each time the instrument is turned on.

Innovators in Gas Detection

Pump: “On” will have the instrument operating in pump mode. “Off” will have theinstrument operating in diffusion mode (for example if longer run time is desired).Stel,Twa alarm: Choose “on” or “off” as desired. If “off” is chosen instrument will notdisplay Stel or TWA in standard mode.Latching alarm: The default is “off” and this is the preferred setting unless there isgood reason not to accept the default setting. If the alarm is set to “on” instrument willremain in alarm after gas levels fall below the alarm level. Depressing the on/offbutton clears the latched alarm.Voice: “Yes” will leave voice messaging on.Confidence Beep: This is self-explanatory.Display Last Calibration Date: This has to do with whether or not it is desired tohave the last calibration date displayed each time the instrument is turned on.Display Calibration due date: As above the question is whether it is desired to haveinstrument display the calibration due date each time the instrument is turned on.Cal. Frequency: This is relevant only if “Display Calibration Due Date” (seeimmediately above) is set to on, in which case it is necessary to choose thecalibration interval.

Innovators in Gas Detection

The lower portion of the screen has information relating to the “gas” complement as well asTWA alarm and calibration gas levels. Once the gas is chosen the instrument automaticallyprovides the correct default TWA alarm levels which conforms to United States OSHArecommendations; it also chooses the default calibration gas levels. Both the default TWAalarm levels and the default calibration gas levels may be changed. When satisfied that allinformation is correct click "ok" to return to the “transfer" menu.

Select “upload configuration/alarm levels” from the transfer menu. The computer will askfor verification of correct date and time. If not correct, make the necessary corrections,then click "ok". When asked "ready to upload" click on “yes”. Observe a prompt toconnect cable. Connect the 6-pin connector cable to the instrument. This is important.This is the time to connect the cable. The instrument will shut itself off and computerscreen will display "upload complete". Click "ok" and disconnect cable from instrument.
