a) Substances other than those listed in the table can also be detected and produce a reading. The gas warning system is calibrated for the
specified gases.
b) Higher values which are extrapolated outside of the valid calibration of 8 LEL-m and which display larger, non-specified uncertainties can also
be output at the digital communication interfaces.
c) With the Pulsar 7700 Duct Mount it can be assumed that the gas distribution within the duct is homogeneous. In this case, the integral
measured gas value with the unit LEL-m can be recorded as a gas concentration with the unit % LEL. Set the distance in meters between
transmitter and receiver as full scale deflection Then, an output current of 20 mA corresponds to exactly 100 % LEL.
Methane, propane, ethylene
