    2 Operator’s Manual (this document). Table 1 at the end of this chapter lists the specifications for the EAGLE 2. About the EAGLE 2 Using an advanced detection system consisting of up to six gas sensors, the EAGLE 2 sample draw gas monitor is capable of detecting the presence of combustible gas, oxygen (O ), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen sulfide (H S), and various other toxic gases simultaneously.
  • Page 11 The Model EAGLE 2 detects oxygen deficiency, elevated levels of oxygen, combustible gases, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide, all of which can be dangerous or life threatening. When using the EAGLE 2, you must follow the instructions and warnings in this manual to assure proper and safe operation of the unit and to minimize the risk of personal injury.
  • Page 12: Specifications

    25 ppm * When calibrating the EAGLE 2 with the Auto Calibration or the Single Calibration method, the calibration gas value must be equal to or higher than the alarm 1 setting. See “Updating the Alarm Point Settings (ALARM POINTS)” on page 105 for instructions to change the alarm points if necessary for the desired calibration gas value.

    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 34 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.

  • Page 237: Appendix J: Methane Elimination Mode

    Appendix J: Methane Elimination Mode Overview For applications where methane is an interfering gas, you can set the EAGLE 2 to eliminate most response to methane using methane elimination mode. CAUTION: The EAGLE 2 catalytic combustible sensor experiences a significant gas response drop when it is changed from full response mode to methane elimination mode.
  • Page 238 For example, if you are using the EAGLE 2 in methane elimination mode to detect isobutane and the display reads 10% LEL, the actual isobutane reading is 10% x 0.59 = 5.9% LEL isobutane.
  • Page 239 The EAGLE 2’s alarms are initiated by the display reading, not the factored reading. If you are monitoring for isobutane as in the above example and the low alarm is set for 10% LEL, the EAGLE 2 will initiate a low alarm at 5.9% LEL isobutane (display reading of 10% LEL).
  • Page 240: Calibration

    When using the instrument for applications where methane elimination mode is used, it is most common to calibrate to hexane. If you are planning to use the EAGLE 2 in methane elimination mode, RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends that you setup and calibrate the instrument to hexane in both full response and methane elimination mode unless your application requires a different setup and calibration.
