Page 7: Overview
OVERVIEW be safe SG are portable personal safety devices designed to detect the presence of specific individual gases: be safe SG H2S Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) be safe SG CO Carbon monoxide (CO) be safe SG SO2 Sulfur dioxide (SO2) be safe SG O2 Oxygen (O2) In case an alarm condition is detected, the device alarms the user with audible, visual and vibration signals. These are single-use devices, which once activated operate for 24 months without charging the internal battery and without any replacement of components. be safe SG is equipped with a single button, which allows activation of the device, verification of alarm settings and the possibility of performing the Autotest, and through the infrared communication port it communicates with be safe SG IR-Link which connected to a PC, after installation of the be safe SG IR-Link manager software allows the user to configure some parameters of the device.. Users of the device must understand what is described in this manual. For safety reasons, users must be properly trained in the use of the equipment and appropriate actions in case of an alarm. -

Page 9: Operation
OPERATION User’s Guide WARNING! For safety, the detector must be positioned near the user (as close to the head as possible), for example, by attaching it to the top of clothing, taking care not to cover the device. This requirement is crucial to enable the product to effectively detect any gas leaks and to distinguish alarms in case the device detects a concentration of toxic gas and/or oxygen deficiency above the set alarm threshold. -
Page 10: Display Main Configurations (Alarm - User Id)
NEGATIVE RESULT If be safe SG fails the self-test, the warning icon “ “ will appear flashing and the icon of the type of the sensor will start flashing. be safe SG will then have to repeat the self-test. Display main configurations (alarm - user ID) From the normal operation screen of the device and with no gas in the environment, pressing the button will successively display the High and Low alarm thresholds and if configured the user name associated with the be safe SG. Through the PC software ‘Be Safe SG IR-Link manager’ (see Appendix A), you can modify the alarm thresholds (High and Low) and associate/modify a username with the device. The ‘User ID’ consists of a maximum of 6 alphanumeric characters and will be displayed on the display in two screens, each with 3 characters. Push the button Peak value display If be safe SG is exposed to a gas concentration above the ALARM HIGH threshold, the display will show the “max” icon and the peak (maximum) value detected: The next screen will sequentially display the date (time, day, month) of when the High alarm occurred and the elapsed time since the peak value was detected. As the last screen, the display shows “CLP” (CLear Peak): pressing the be safe SG button while CLP is displayed will clear the stored peak value and the “max” icon will not be displayed. -

GAS ALARM SIGNAL Below are the factory settings for gas alarms: Alarm HIGH 15 ppm 200 ppm 10 ppm 23,5% 10 ppm 35 ppm 5 ppm 19,5% It is possible to change the factory settings of gas alarm thresholds using the PC software “be safe SG IR-Link manager” (see Appendix A). To view the alarm settings of be safe SG, press the detector button and wait for the screens to scroll. LOW alarm status (LOW ALARM) A gas concentration higher than the LOW ALARM level set has been detected for CO, H2S, SO2 sensors, or a lower gas concentration for the O2 sensor: 1) Acoustic alarm (1 time/second) 2) LED flashing (1 time/second) 3) Vibrating alarm (0.5 time/second) HIGH alarm status (HIGH ALARM) A gas concentration above the set HIGH ALARM level was detected: 1) Acoustic alarm (2 times/second) 2) LED flashing (2 times/second) 3) Vibrating alarm (1 time/second) STOP DETECTOR ALARM... -
Page 12: 10.0 Events Log
10.0 EVENTS LOG be Safe SG stores the last 30 alarms. The logging system stores alarm events according to FIFO (First In First Out) logic. For example, the 31st event will replace the first event, and the 32nd event will replace the second, and so on. Alarm events stored on be Safe SG can be confirmed and downloaded using the PC software ‘be Safe SG IR-Link manager’ (see Appendix A). The stored information includes: • Serial number of the detector • Remaining life of the detector • Number of self-tests performed • Number of alarms occurred and cumulative duration • Event log data: • Time elapsed since the last alarm • Alarm duration • Alarm level(s) in ppm or %. • Type of alarms • Bump test (yes or no) 11.0 BUMP TEST AND CALIBRATION This section contains important information on the proper calibration and Bump test performance for be safe SG. These procedures are essential to ensure proper operation and accuracy of device readings. -
