a) Substances other than those listed in the table can also be detected and produce a reading. The gas warning system is calibrated for the
specified gases.
b) Higher values which are extrapolated outside of the valid calibration of 8 LELm and display larger, non-specified uncertainties can also be
output on the digital communication interfaces.
c) With the Pulsar 7700 Duct Mount it can be assumed that the gas distribution within the duct is homogeneous. In this case, the integral
measured gas value with the unit LELm can be recorded as the gas concentration with the unit % LEL. Set the numerical value of the distance
between transmitter and receiver in metres as the full scale deflection. This way, an output current of 20 mA corresponds to exactly 100 % LEL.
