Introduction
Using an advanced microprocessor controlled detection system, the SC-01
Personal Single Gas Monitor detects the presence of one of a variety of
toxic gases depending on the sensor installed. The SC-01 has the ability to
recognize which sensor is installed so that changing the target gas is as
easy as changing the sensor to a different type calibrated sensor. The
SC-01’s compact size and easy-to-use design makes it ideally suited for a
wide range of applications, including sewage treatment plants, hazardous
waste sites, petrochemical facilities, oil fields, chemical plants, and
semiconductor plants. The SC-01 offers the following features:
• Sensor recognition for plug & play capability
• Available extender cable for remote sensor capability
• Compact design
• Fast, accurate response with digital liquid crystal display (LCD)
• Visual, audible, and vibration alarms
• Microprocessor control for reliability, ease of use, and advanced
capabilities
• Peak, STEL, and TWA indication
• Data Logging
• Over range alarm
• Gas, battery, sensor failure, and system failure alarms
• Over 250 hours operation on one set of alkaline batteries
• CSA classified intrinsically safe for Class I, Division I, Groups A, B, C,
and D hazardous atmospheres (PENDING)
WARNING: The SC-01 detects toxic gases which can be dangerous
or life threatening. When using the SC-01, 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. Be sure to maintain
and periodically calibrate the SC-01 as described in this
manual.
