1.0 INTRODUCTION
The SCOTT INSTRUMENTS MINI-SA Portable Gas Detector is a self contained
instrument designed to detect and provide audible, visual, and tactile indication
of the presence of oxygen or toxic gas in the air. The toxic gas concentration is
monitored and shown in the graphic display in parts per million (ppm) of the
atmosphere. The oxygen concentration is shown in the graphic display as a
percent (%). When the gas level exceeds the preset level, alarms actuate
including a pulsing audible alarm tone, flashing LED, and a vibration alarm.
The alarm functions for toxic gases include a Time Weighted Average (TWA)
Alarm and a Short Term Exposure Level (STEL) Alarm.
Other features include AUTO CALIBRATION and self diagnostic capabili-
ties, a HOLD function that displays the lowest level detected, and user
adjustable high and low ALARM SETPOINTS. A battery life indicator con-
stantly monitors remaining battery capacity and a backlight provides visibil-
ity in low light situations.
Additional features include a PASSWORD PROTECT menu and a BAT-
TERY SAVER mode.
