IN USE

+ve Safety™

+ve Safety™ (Positive Safety) provides

positive conrmation of detector status prior
to deployment in the eld or on return from
site. The front mount tri-colour LED gives
the Safety Manager or Supervisor unrivalled
visibility of the status of the Operator’s

detector.

Charging

• To charge, insert the charger connected into the socket at the back of

the Gas-Pro.

• The display will show the battery lling and RED LED’s will ash red

until the battery is full, when they will ash green.

Gas Testing

Crowcon recommends regular gas tests (also known as bump tests) to
conrm sensor operation. A number of exible and simple solutions are

available:

Q-Test Quick and simple in-led gas test and calibration solution.

I-Test Intelligent wall or desk mount, powered data management
solution.
S-Test Service and maintenance solution for up to 5 detectors.

If congured to do so, test and calibration can also be completed manually
by using the non-pumped ow plate and following prompts on the screen. If
a test should fail or calibration is due and the Gas-Pro has been manually
zeroed in the last 15 minutes a calibration can also be completed.

See the Gas-Pro User and Operator manual for details.

DISPLAY

Home Screen

• Gas-Pro simultaneously displays up

to 5 gases.

• The dual colour backlight aids

recognition of alarm events.

• The home icon will invert to show normal operation.

• The backlight is green and changes to red during an alarm highlighting

the gas in alarm.

OPERATION

Switching On/Off

• In clean air turn on the Gas-Pro by holding down the operator button

for 3 audible blips. The Gas-Pro will warm up, going through a series of
automatic processes.

• To turn off, press and hold the operator button. During the 4 second

countdown hold the button down until the countdown has nished.

Quick View

• A momentary press of the operator button allows the user to see the gas

type and unit, battery level, user and +ve Safety™ status.

Alarms

• Gas-Pro offers audible, visual and vibrate alarms as standard.

• Each gas has 2 instantaneous alarms and toxics also have TWA alarms.

• When in alarm the display backlight will change from green to red and

highlight the gas in alarm.

• When the Gas-Pro warns of a low battery, the sounder will emit an audible

double blip every 5 seconds and the +ve Safety™ LED will go red. This
means the battery has at least 30 minutes of battery life remaining. After 30
minutes the Gas-Pro will enter full alarm state and the battery icon will ash
empty as shut down is imminent.

Backlight

• The backlight is congurable but set as standard to come on at the press

of the operator button or during alarm.

Pump

• If the internal pump option has been chosen, the pump is activated by

attaching the pumped ow plate.

• Ensure the gasket is clean and undamaged prior to placement.

• The pump test will activate every time the ow plate is attached the user

will be prompted to cover the inlet to ensure a tight seal. Gas-Pro will
indicate a pass or fail, if failed the ow plate should be removed, checked

and reapplied.

USER MENU

• Access the user menu by double clicking the operator button, then

scroll through the menu using single clicks. Once the correct function
is highlighted, double click to choose.

Zero

• During start-up the operator has the option to perform an autozero, or

leave the countdown if an autozero is not required/possible.

• A manual zero can be performed at any time following start up and is

needed less than 15 minutes prior to running a manual calibration.

Time Weighted Average (TWA)

• This function allows the 8 hour TWA to be reviewed.

Pre-Entry Check (PEC)

• This function is intended for sampling air of unknown quality before

gaining access to it (e.g. going under ground through a manhole
cover) thereby avoiding unnecessary exposure.

Peak Review

• This function allows the highest level of each gas detected to be

reviewed during the last 8 hours, 12 hours or since turned on.

Settings

User setting: Up to 5 different users can be loaded into Gas-Pro using

the Portables-Pro PC application.

Pump setting: This function, which is only present if the Gas-Pro has

an internal pump, allows authorised users to turn the pump on or off.

Sounder volume: This function allows authorised users to change the

sounder volume between 2 levels.
