Start-up
Analogue signal
— A current between 4 and 20 mA flows through the transmitter during normal
operation. This current is proportional to the gas concentration.
— The Dräger Polytron 7000 transmitter uses various current values to indi-
cate the operational status of the transmitter:

CAUTION
Exceeding or falling below the transmitter supply voltage specified in the
technical data can lead to an incorrect display of the analogue signal!
— In measuring mode, the display shows the actual gas concentration, e.g.:
— when rising above - for O
2
also when falling below - the alarm levels for the
concentration alarm,
— When the full scale deflection is exceeded:
The special symbol » « is displayed instead of the measurement
value.
— The measured value drops below the measuring range:
The special symbol » « is displayed instead of the measurement
value.
