The new T3 Gas Tester ensures
Crowcon’s Tetra:3 (T3) portable,
multi-gas detector complies with
relevant national/regional
safety regulations and
company requirements.
The device feeds the
T3’s sensors a known
concentration of gas, a
process known as ‘bumping’,
to ensure the sensors are
working correctly. When a
T3 is inserted into the Gas
Tester, the T3 automatically switches
into ‘bump’ mode and either passes or
fails. Once the test is complete the T3
is removed and the bump result is
then accepted by the user and logged
automatically in the T3. When the test
has passed, the user is safe in the
knowledge their detector is in good
working order; if it fails the
bump, it informs the user
that the instrument needs
to be re-calibrated or
serviced. All this is done
without a power supply.
The Gas Tester can bump
for flammable, oxygen, carbon
monoxide, hydrogen sulphide
and carbon dioxide sensors. It is
capable of testing up to four gases
within 60sec.
