Pellistor saving Triple Plus+ and Triple Plus+ IR
Additionally, a pellistor will switch itself off if it reaches a reading of 105% LEL
or more – this action will happen irrespective of whether a % volume sensor is
also fitted. If a pellistor switches itself off then it will stay off until it is manually
switched on. This happens by pressing the unmarked button. The pellistor will
warm up for 5 seconds before the pellistor channel will read.
Pellistor saving is indicated on the display by the gas level being blank for the
flammable block.
