NH3 RESPONDER Start a bump Test Zero results are displayed as follows: • A check mark for sensors that passed Zero Perform a bump test regularly to test sensors and • A cross mark for sensors that failed Zero alarms.
Bump Test is due. in one of four scenarios: 7. Press the button to finish the procedure. Scenario 1 When both IntelliFlash and Reverse IntelliFlash are CTI recommends to bump test the sensors before enabled, the detector’s green LED will flash until it each day’s use to confirm their ability to respond to goes out of compliance, then its amber LED will flash gas by exposing the sensors to a gas concentration instead.
Bluetooth pairing Set up the confidence and compliance The user can pair the NH3 Responder to a mobile beep interval device via built in Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). The Honeywell Safety Communicator app, installed on the The Confidence Compliance Beep is a sound that tells...
