Page 29: Replacing A Sensor
www.acornfiresecurity.com Replacing a sensor Sensors must be replaced: ■ When calibration is no longer possible (no sensitivity); ■ During preventative maintenance. The replacement sensor should be identical to the original sensor (same gas, same range). After a sensor has been replaced, a calibration or test (for pre-calibrated sensors) must be conducted. - Page 30 www.acornfiresecurity.com CTX 300 User manual www.acornfiresecurity.com...
