General Operation
Once the AGMSZ has been installed, set up, and powered ON, the monitor will make measurements in the area being sampled for ammonia gas without further operator intervention. The results of those measurements are shown on the front panel display.
MEASURE 00485pk
45ppm R717
In the example shown above, MEASURE indicates that the AGMSZ is actively monitoring for refrigerant gas, and that currently 45 ppm of
An operator can reset the peak value to zero by pressing the ENTER button.
A log of up to 200 previous measurements can be viewed using the PPM LOG function (Page 15).
If the detected gas level exceeds the preset Leak, Spill, or Evacuate alarm point, then the monitor responds by turning ON the front panel ALARM (red) light and energizing the corresponding alarm relay. If the internal audible alarm is turned ON, it too will activate (AUDALRM page 16). Optional external alarm devices can be connected to the alarm relays to alert personnel that a Leak, Spill, or Evacuate alarm condition has occurred (Page 10). Pressing the front panel SILENCE button will acknowledge an alarm and turn OFF all alarm indicators with the exception of the front panel ALARM light. The alarm circuit will reactivate, however, if the alarm condition is not cleared within the time period set by the SILENCE function (Page 17). The ALARM light will turn OFF after the detected gas level goes below the lowest alarm point and after the SILENCE button is pressed.
