    Using Optional Sample Hoses The standard sample hose for the EAGLE 2 is 5 feet long. Optional hoses are available up to 125 feet long. If you are considering using a longer hose, keep in mind that a longer hose will increase the EAGLE 2’s response time and the flowrate may decrease close to the low flow alarm point.
  • Page 35 Vapor pressure too low for significant LEL reading • The EAGLE 2 provides the catalytic combustible sensor with some protection against exposure to high levels of combustible gas which can damage the sensor. It does this by turning off the combustible sensor power temporarily when it determines that an over scale (more than 100% LEL) concentration of combustible gas is present that may damage the sensor.

    Alarm Indications The EAGLE 2 will sound an alarm and flash the LED arrays when one of the target gas concentrations rises above the Low Alarm level, or in the case of oxygen falls below the Low Alarm level, for that gas.
  • Page 39: Resetting And Silencing Alarms

    Resetting and Silencing Alarms You can set the EAGLE 2’s gas alarms as latching or self-resetting alarms (see “Updating the Alarm Latching Setting” on page 108). • Self-resetting alarms (ALARM LATCHING set to SELF RESET) Self-resetting alarms automatically shut off and reset when the gas reading falls below (or rises above for an oxygen low alarm) the alarm setting.
  • Page 40: Responding To Alarms

    ALARM SILENCE set to ON and ALARM LATCHING set to LATCHING are the factory settings. When the EAGLE 2 goes into gas alarm, press and release any button to silence the buzzer. If the gas concentration was still above the alarm level when the button was pressed, the LED arrays continue to flash, and the EAGLE 2 continues to display the current alarm level.
