it will automatically launch the IrDA
connection subroutine so that data in the
instrument may be downloaded to
BioTrak.
2.5 Turning the ToxiLtd off
To turn the ToxiLtd off, press and hold the
MODE button. After 5 seconds, the
instrument will light up all segments on the
display. After 3 more seconds, the display
will show “IrDA”. Continue to hold the
MODE button for an additional 15
seconds after “IrDA” is shown. The
following screen will be shown after the
instrument is shut down.
Note: Turning the ToxiLtd off will have
no effect on the operational life of the
instrument. The ToxiLtd will operate
for 24 months from the activation date,
unless the instrument has exceeded 20
hours in alarm, regardless of whether
the instrument is turned on or off.
2.6 Sampling
The ToxiLtd may be used in either
diffusion or sample-draw mode. In either
mode, the gas sample must enter the
sensor compartment for the instrument to
register a gas reading.
In diffusion mode, the atmosphere
reaches the sensor by diffusing through
the sensor port on the front of the
instrument. Normal air movements are
enough to carry the sample to the sensor.
The sensor reacts quickly to changes in
the concentration of the gas being
measured.
It is also possible to use the ToxiLtd to
sample remote locations with the hand-
aspirated sample-draw kit that is available
separately. During remote sampling, the
gas sample is drawn into the sensor
compartment through the probe assembly
and a length of tubing.
2.6.1 Sample draw kit usage
1. Connect the shorter piece of hose
from the squeeze bulb to the sample
draw adapter. Connect the longer end
of the hose to the sample probe.
2. Attach the sample draw adapter to the
ToxiLtd.
3. Cover the end of the sample draw
probe assembly with a finger, and
squeeze the aspirator bulb. If there
are no leaks in the sample draw kit
components, the bulb should stay
deflated for a few seconds.
4. Insert the end of the sample probe
into the location to be sampled.
5. Squeeze the aspirator bulb several
times to draw the sample from the
remote location to the sensor
compartment. Allow one squeeze of
the bulb for every one foot of sampling
hose for the sample to reach the
sensors. Then continue to squeeze
the bulb for an additional 45 seconds
or until readings stabilize.
6. Note the gas measurement readings.
CAUTION: Hand aspirated remote
sampling only provides continuous
gas readings for the area in which the
probe is located when the bulb is
being continuously squeezed.
Note: Each time a reading is desired, it
is necessary to squeeze the bulb a
sufficient number of times to bring a
fresh sample to the sensor
compartment and to then continue
squeezing the bulb for an additional 45
seconds or until readings stabilize.
3. Calibration
The ToxiLtd features fully automated
calibration functions. Instruments require
both fresh air/zero and span calibrations.
The MODE button is used to initiate the
automatic calibration sequence.
Calibration adjustments are made
automatically by the instrument.
3.1 Verification of accuracy
Sperian recommends regular verification
of accuracy for all of our gas detection
products in order to maximize worker
safety. For a discussion of Sperian’s
Calibration Recommendations, see
Appendix C.
3.1.1 Verifying toxic sensor
performance
Verification is a two-step procedure for
ToxiLtd instruments equipped with a toxic
gas sensor.
Step one is to take the ToxiLtd to an area
where the atmosphere is known to be
fresh and perform a fresh air/zero
