MAIN FEATURES

1.

Auto Zero. MAX 5 offers automatic zero calibration for carbon monoxide and

combustibles and automatic span calibration for oxygen. Also, you can adjust

them manually. You have to adjust the span calibration manually for carbon

monoxide and combustibles.


2.

Stored Readings. The computer stores up to 20 sets of readings and reports them

to the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) or to an optional serial printer.


3.

Computer Memory. A 16-bit microprocessor and 40 kilobytes of memory are

standard.

4.

ROM Instruction Manual. The MAX 5 stores an abbreviated but complete

instruction manual in ROM and prints the manual upon request.


5.

Rechargeable Batteries. Nickel-cadmium batteries provide power to the unit for up

to 8 hours of continuous operation. You recharge the batteries by plugging a standard

power cord into a 115V receptacle. TBE/AI also offers 220V and 100V versions.


6.

Proven Sensors. The MAX 5 uses Teledyne’s standard line of sensors, already proven

to be among the best in the instrumentation industry.


7.

CO Analysis. Four ranges of CO analysis are available for the MAX 5; one standard

0-1000 ppm CO and three optional ranges - 0-500 ppm CO, 0-1% CO and 0-25% CO.


OPERATION OF CONTROLS, DISPLAYS & INDICATORS

Initial Display. Shortly after it is first switched on, the computer will test all its internal
functions and then automatically enter its normal operating mode. During this time, it will
display random segments on the LCD.

Temperature Display. Readings below 1000 degrees (Fahrenheit or centigrade) are read
directly (for example, 100 means 100 degrees). If a reading is over 1000 degrees, it will be
displayed as a number with two decimal places, and you must multiply by 1000 to get the actual
temperature. For example, 1.50 means 1.50 x 1000, or 1500 degrees.

Display Panel. A continuous updated LCD monitors O

functions; display three parameters at once, control the sampling pump, and choose degrees
Centigrade or Fahrenheit as shown in Figures 1 & 2.
