90% in 30 seconds WARNING: When using the 65-2434RK, you must follow the instructions and warnings in this manual to assure proper and safe operation of the 65-2434RK and to minimize the risk of personal injury. Be sure to maintain and periodically calibrate the 65-2434RK as described in this manual.
(that is proportional to the detection range) and transmits the signal to a gas monitoring controller. The amplifier PCB includes the interconnect terminal strip, sensor sockets, span pot, zero pot, and test points (see Figure 1). 2 • 65-2434RK CO Transmitter GlobalTestSupply www.
Use the enclosure’s two mounting holes, accessible with the cover removed, to mount the CO transmitter to a vertical surface at the monitoring site. Use the cover on the front of the enclosure to access the interior of the enclosure. 65-2434RK CO Transmitter • 3 GlobalTestSupply www.
At the monitoring site, use #6 screws through the enclosure’s two mounting holes to secure it to a vertical surface. Secure the cover to the enclosure with the four cover screws. 4 • 65-2434RK CO Transmitter GlobalTestSupply www. .com Find Quality Products Online at: sales@GlobalTestSupply.com...

The procedure below describes applying zero emission air, usually called zero air, using a calibration kit that includes a calibration cup, calibration gas, sample tubing, and a fixed flow regulator with an on/off knob. RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends using a 0.5 LPM (liters per minute) fixed flow regulator.
Use the following formula to determine the correct test points output for the test sample. Output (mV) = (calibrating sample/fullscale) X 400 + 100 For example, with a test sample of 50 PPM CO and a fullscale setting of 65-2434RK CO Transmitter • 7 GlobalTestSupply www. .com Find Quality Products Online at: sales@GlobalTestSupply.com...
• Calibrate the transmitter. • If the fail condition continues, replace the CO sensor. • If the fail condition continues, contact RKI for further instruction. Slow or No Response/Difficult or Unable to Calibrate 8 • 65-2434RK CO Transmitter GlobalTestSupply www.
Verify that the calibration cylinder contains an adequate supply of a fresh test sample. If the calibration/response difficulties continue, replace the CO sensor as described later in this section. If the calibration/response difficulties continue, contact RKI Instruments, Inc. for further instruction. Replacing Components of the CO Transmitter This section includes procedures to replace the CO sensor, amplifier PCB, and charcoal filter.

Remove the enclosure’s cover by unscrewing the four cover screws, one at each corner. Unplug the CO sensor from the amplifier PCB. Remove the rubber boot that secures the charcoal filter to the CO sensor. 10 • 65-2434RK CO Transmitter GlobalTestSupply www. .com Find Quality Products Online at: sales@GlobalTestSupply.com...
It describes the test using a calibration kit that includes a calibration cup, calibration gas, sample tubing, and a fixed flow regulator with an on/off knob. RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends using a 0.5 LPM (liters per minute) fixed flow regulator.
Remove the calibration cup from the sensor face. Unscrew the regulator from the calibration cylinder. NOTE: For convenience, leave the components of the calibration kit connected by the sample tubing. 12 • 65-2434RK CO Transmitter GlobalTestSupply www. .com Find Quality Products Online at:...
