    This is due to the initial warm-up characteristics of the carbon monoxide sensors. The GasTech 'C-Guard' has a 60 second warm-up timer that holds the output signal at 4mA to allow the sensor to stabilise. If sensors have been stored for a long time or stored in extremes of temperature, the settling time of the sensors may be longer than the 60 seconds, resulting in a period where the signals into the controller are seen as measured gas concentrations.

    The control voltage is set based on the highest input signal fed from any of the enabled channels. For a gas sensor this represents the unit that is sensing the highest concentration level. © 2011 Gastech Australia Pty Ltd Page 14...
