PT395 Series Detector
Response Check / Bump Test
It is recommended to periodically carry out a gas response check or “Bump Test”
on the detector to ensure proper operation.
1.
For a simple Bump Test apply the gas to the sensor via the tube fitting / nozzle
on the bottom of the splash / dust guard. If there is no hose fitting on the dust /
splash guard then simply insert the tubing into the hose entry on the bottom of
the splash guard.
2.
A more accurate way is to use the calibration adapter. Simply remove the splash
guard and attach the adapter onto the sensor head assembly.
Note: In windy conditions perform Bump test as described in step 2
only. Also calibration adapter must be used for full calibration of the
sensor. Furthermore, the sensor response time to the calibration gas
must always be checked using calibration adapter. Do not verify the
sensor response time with dust guard installed and applying the gas as
stated in #1 above.
