MANUAL BUMP TEST OPTIONS

6. MANUAL BUMP TEST OPTIONS

6.1. Bump Testing

A bump test verifies sensor response and alarm operation by exposing the monitor to a known con-
centration of gas.
The monitor has 2 manual bump test options:
QUICK bump test validates sensors respond to gas and alarms are working.
FULL bump test checks the response of all sensors against set limits and alarms are working.
By default, both of these options are disabled.
A bump test kit (Part No. 64051) is available and contains test gas, a regulator, and Tygon® tubing.
WARNING: A QUICK BUMP TEST ONLY CHECKS THE OPERATION OF THE
AUDIBLE AND VISUAL ALARMS. IT DOES NOT VALIDATE SENSOR
ACCURACY OR RESPONSE TIME.
WHEN PERFORMING A BUMP TEST, THE TEST GAS CONCENTRATION
SHOULD BE HIGH ENOUGH TO TRIGGER THE MONITOR'S ALARMS. IF
ANY MONITOR FAILS A BUMP TEST, PERFORM A FULL CALIBRATION
BEFORE USING THAT MONITOR.
