Pressure Regulator & Sensor
Indicates gas bottle functionality.
- Green indicates a bottle is
completely functional, and gas
parameters are within pressure
and expiration date limits.
- Yellow indicates low calibration
gas, or gas is nearing its expira-
tion date.
- A blinking yellow light band indi-
cates a hardware problem with
the cylinder holder.
- Red indicates an empty calibra-
tion gas bottle, or that gas has
expired.
Reads the RFID tag of
the MSA test gas cylin-
der and transmits:
- the gas type
- gas concentration
- expiration date
- lot number
- cylinder part number
to the Test Stand. The
RFID tag is only availa-
ble on MSA-branded test
gas cylinders shown in
the Maintenance section
[ chapter 7].
Reads the pressure of the gas
cylinder and transmits that
information to the Test Stand.
- When gas pressure drops to
approximately 99 psi
(6.89 bar) a warning will
display and the display
numbers appear yellow.
- Once pressure drops to ap-
proximately 49 psi (3.45 bar)
the display numbers appear
red.
- Once pressure drops to less
than 5 psi (0.34 bar) the
Test Stand will prohibit test-
ing with that cylinder.
