Alarm Lights

Two ultra-bright, red, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) provide visual alarms for gas concentrations and malfunctions. They are mounted on the top rear of the case for greatest visibility.

Battery Charger Connector

The battery charger connector is mounted on the top right rear of the case. The external battery charger connects to this connector to recharge nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries. The continuous operation adapter also connects to the battery charger connector.

Interface Port

The interface port is for the optional data logging or remote buzzer. The port is mounted on the top left rear of the case. When the Data Logging option is installed, the Eagle records gas concentrations at programmed intervals and stores data on gas detected. You can download these measurements through the interface port to a PC- compatible computer for use in data analysis programs. Data retrieval requires the Eagle Data Downloader Kit (with PC connection cable and software).

The optional remote buzzer also connects to the interface port. The remote buzzer is for use in applications where a remote alarm indication is required.

Buzzer

A solid-state electronic buzzer is mounted inside the top of the case. The buzzer sounds for gas alarms, malfunction, low battery voltage, and as an indicator during use of the Eagle’s many display and adjustment options.

Sample-Drawing System

The sample-drawing system includes the pump, sensor block and connections, internal filter and charcoal scrubber, and the external hose, probe, and hydrophobic filter. This system provides continuous flow of sampled air to the sensors while keeping out liquids and dust.

With proper setup, the system can draw a sample flow from up to 100 feet away from the Eagle. Consult RKI Instruments, Inc., for sample flow distances longer than 100 feet.
