) (FIGURE 2-3)
The Solaris Multigas Detector can be equipped to detect the amount of
oxygen in the atmosphere.
• Two conditions trigger the alarm:
• Too little oxygen (deficient)
• Too much oxygen (enriched).
• When the alarm setpoint is reached for either of the above:
• Alarm sounds
• Alarm lights flash
•% O

flag above the concentration flashes.
If the Oxygen alarm condition is reached while using the
instrument as a personal or area monitor, leave the area imme-
diately; the ambient condition has reached a preset alarm
level. If using the instrument as an inspection device, do not
enter the area without proper protection. Failure to follow this
warning will cause exposure to a hazardous environment
which can result in serious personal injury or death.
