7.5.SETUP MORE ALRM: USING THE GAS CONCENTRATION ALARMS

The GFC 7001E/EM includes two CO concentration alarms if OPT 61 is installed on your instrument. Each alarm has a user settable limit, and is associated with a Single Pole Double Throw relay output accessible via the alarm output connector on the instrument’s back panel (See Section 3.3.3). If the CO concentration measured by the instrument rises above that limit, the alarm‘s status output relay is closed.

The default settings for ALM1 and ALM2 are:

NOTE

To prevent the concentration alarms from activating during span calibration operations ensure that the

CAL or CALS button is pressed prior to introducing span gas into the analyzer.
