for the oxygen channel, continue with step 3.

3. Perform a zero operation at the controller. See the controller operator’s manual for

instructions to perform a zero operation.

Maintenance

This section describes maintenance procedures. It includes preventive maintenance

procedures. This section also includes procedures to troubleshoot the sample-draw

detector, replace components of the sample-draw detector, and adjust the low flow

setting.

Preventive Maintenance

This section describes a preventive maintenance schedule to ensure the optimum

performance of the sample-draw detector. It includes daily, monthly, and quarterly

procedures.

Monthly Visual Checks

1. Verify that the pilot light is on.

2. Verify that the flowmeter indicates a flow rate of approximately 1.5 SCFH.

If necessary use the bypass valve or flow adjust potentiometer to adjust the flow rate

to 1.5 SCFH.

3. Verify a display reading of 0 %LEL for the combustible channel and 20.9% for the

oxygen channel at the controller. Investigate significant changes in the display

reading.

Monthly Response Test

This procedure describes a test to verify that the sample-draw detector responds properly

to the target gas.

NOTE: To reduce the response time of this test, use a short incoming sample line. If the

sample-draw detector’s sample line is long, connect a shorter line for this test.

Make sure you reconnect the sample line after you complete this procedure.

NOTE: Performing a response test on the sample-draw detector may cause alarms. Be

sure to put the controller into its calibration program or disable external alarms

before performing this test.

Preparing for the response test

NOTE: This procedure describes the RKI calibration kit that includes a demand flow

regulator.

1. Verify that the display reading at the controller is 0 % LEL for the combustible channel

and 20.9% for the oxygen channel.

If the display reading is not 0 % LEL for the combustible channel or 20.9% for the

oxygen channel, set the zero reading as described in the Calibration section, then

continue this procedure.
