INDEX

This RADEX MONITOR MODEL 08-200 is designed to monitor breathing air for

carbon monoxide contamination from a compressed air source. Compressed Air is

supplied to the unit through the sampling hose where the air flows through a preset

pressure regulator and a fixed orifice flow restrictor. This system delivers a

continuous flow of compressed air into the sensor chamber. The monitor

continuously analyses the air and displays a CO reading in ppm and the

temperature of the compressed air.

To provide added protection the Radex CO monitor provides traceability via PC, this

feature provides users with the ability to review data which has been recorded and

stored. The traceability feature provides information on CO levels, temperature,

alarms, calibration and date and time. The unit is also equipped with an anti tamper

device which is activated if the monitor unit is disassembled.

The unit is housed in a robust protective case which can be carried or mounted

either on a Radex Airline Filter or on a wall. All system lights and alarms are located

on the outside of the protective case. An External power outlet is located on the

outside of the protective case this can provide power to an external alarm, strobe

warning light or solenoid. The monitor must be supplied with Grade-D air and must

be free of oil and water to prevent contamination of the sensor.

The monitor is designed to operate at 12 volts DC and can be used with either the

110/240v – 12v power adaptor (p/n: 08-221) or the 12v cable with Battery Clips

(p/n: 08-227). The unit is designed to operate in temperature ranges -10 to +60 C

and Humidity levels of 5% - 99% (no condensation).

The Radex Carbon Monoxide Monitor satisfies the requirements of OSHA rule

29CFR 1910.134 (d) (2) (ii) for carbon monoxide monitoring.

RPB Respiratory provides a complete calibration and maintenance service through

its service centers. In some locations RPB has units available for rental while your

unit is being serviced.

INTRODUCTION

!WARNING!

When the monitor is correctly installed and maintained, it monitors the level of

Carbon Monoxide in the breathing air. The Radex monitor DOES NOT remove

Carbon Monoxide from the air.

Do not use this unit, until you have been trained in its use and operation by a

qualified individual appointed by your employer. Failure to adhere to the user’s

instruction manual could result in serious injury or death.

Leave work area immediately if the monitor alarm sounds, check air source and wait

until alarm mode stops, if it continues change your air source. Use only calibration

gases supplied by RPB Respiratory to perform calibration checks, the use of

unapproved gases could cause premature failure of the unit.

The RADEX CARBON MONOXIDE MONITOR MODEL 08-200 is not approved for

use in hazardous or explosive atmospheres.

Do not cover the warning alarms that are attached to the unit. Always wear hearing

protection when testing the alarm.

Do not open the monitor panel as the unit is equipped with a tamper switch and it

will void all warranties. Opening of the panel will result in a record being placed in

the traceability log and “warranty void” will display on the screen.

The unit must be returned to RPB Respiratory to have maintenance and calibration

performed on it.

The sensor contains sulphuric acid which is poisonous and can cause burns and

eyesight loss. Do not allow contact with skin or eyes. If eyes are exposed to the acid

flush thoroughly and seek medical attention. Always wash hands thoroughly after

handling a sensor cell.

RPB Respiratory cannot accept any liability of whatsoever nature arising directly or

indirectly from the use or misuse of RPB Respiratory products, including purposes

the power input port on the CO Monitor.

Then connect power adaptor or battery

clips to power source.

Fig. 1.8 Fig. 1.9

The air inlet is fitted with a filter which should

AIR CONNECTIONS (cont.) POWER CONNECTIONS

If you are using an external alarm device,

connect the plug of the device to the

external power outlet. The external alarms

should be located close to the work area so

they can be seen and heard by operators.

POWER CONNECTIONS (cont.)

If you choose to organize your own external

alarm device you are recommended to use

a qualified Electrician. To actuate external

devices with a relay, the relay coil should be

connected between pin 3 main power) and

pin 4 (alarm). The relay should be a 12v

DC, low power type.

OPERATION

The Radex CO monitor has four modes of operation.

OPERATING, where data is logged and alarms are triggered by excess CO, low

power and faults.

SETUP, which is entered by pressing the SETUP button.

DATA RETRIEVAL, which is only possible when the unit is connected to a PC and a

connection is opened.

CALIBRATION CHECK, this mode is used to perform monthly calibration checks on

the unit.

When the Radex CO Monitor is switched on, you should always watch the display to

ensure correct operation, it will display the serial number and software version then it

performs a self diagnostic test. Should there be a fault during the self diagnostic test

the screen will display a phone number and email address for you to contact a

service center.

Once the Radex CO monitor has completed its start up procedure, the unit will enter

operating mode and show one of three screens pictured below, depending on the

status of the alarm.

ALARM MODES

The alarm will sound if the CO concentration rises to or above 10ppm according to

USA, European, Australian regulations (5ppm for Canadian Regulations). The alarm

can be silenced for 30 seconds by pressing OK (snooze mode). If after 30 seconds

the gas concentration is still above the threshold, the alarm will sound again.

If the gas concentration rises by more than 2ppm while the alarm is silenced, the

alarm will sound, regardless of timeout. The user can again silence the alarm;

however, it will be subject to the 30 second timeout. All alarms and snooze modes

are recorded by the data logger built into the unit.

If the unit is operating on mains power supply, and the mains supply is

disconnected, a short warning beep will be sounded; this will alert the user to the

loss of mains power.

If the unit is operating on batteries, and the battery voltage falls below a set

threshold, then a more insistent warning will be sounded, (“beep-beep-beep” pause

“beep-beep-beep” pause “beep-beep-beep”). If the alarm is already sounding, the

patterns are inverted:

SELF TEST FAILURE

The unit goes through the self-test and shows the success or failure of each test.

If certain parts of the self-test fail, the unit will not proceed to operational mode, and

will display a service phone number and service email address. Operation will be

inhibited until a self-test passes, this ensures safe operation at all times as Carbon

Monoxide is odorless and can cause serious injury or death.

The unit will display days left until recalibration is necessary (every 180 days) and

days left before sensor replacement is necessary (24 months).

FAULTS THAT INHIBIT OPERATION

Data Flash Memory failure

Calibration Due (The operator can accept responsibility to override by pressing OK).

Sensor Replacement Due (The operator can accept responsibility to override by

pressing OK).

EEPROM failure (Calibration Data cannot be read)
