Appendix E: ESM-01 Toxic Sensors
Overview
The ESM-01 sensors are used to monitor levels of a variety of toxic gases.
This appendix describes the EAGLE 2’s ESM-01 sensors and includes
instructions to use an EAGLE 2 that has one or more ESM-01 sensors
installed. It also includes instructions to replace an ESM-01 sensor.
Table 18: ESM-01 Sensor Specifications
Description
Table 18 above lists the available ESM-01 sensors. The ESM-01 is a smart
sensor that stores sensor parameters including the target gas, detection range,
alarm points, and calibration settings in its memory. So a sensor can be
calibrated at the factory and shipped as a replacement sensor without the need
to calibrate the sensor when it is installed as long as it is installed during the
sensor’s valid calibration period which is typically 3 months. In addition, you
can change an existing ESM-01 channel from one type of ESM-01 sensor to
another and the EAGLE 2 will automatically load all the sensor parameters
and configure the ESM-01 channel for the new sensor without the need to
enter CONFIGURE CHANNELS or CONFIGURE GASES in Setup Mode.
