4.1 Maintenance schedule Gas detectors are safety devices. TELEDYNE OLDHAM SIMTRONICS recommends the regular testing of fixed gas detection installations. This type of test consists of injecting the calibration gas into the detector at a sufficient concentration to activate the pre-set alarms. It is to be understood that this test is in no way a replacement for a detector calibration.
