Introduction
The operator’s manual provides basic information to operate the GasAlertQuattro gas detector. For complete operating instructions, refer to the GasAlertQuattro Technical Reference
Guide provided on the CD-ROM. The GasAlertQuattro gas detector (“the detector”) is designed to warn of hazardous gas levels above user-defined alarm setpoints.
The detector is a personal safety device. It is your responsibility to respond properly to the alarm.
Note
The detector is shipped with English as the default displayed language. Additional languages provided are French, German, Portuguese, and Spanish. The screens for the additional languages are displayed on the detector and in the corresponding operator’s manual.
Zeroing the Sensors
To zero the sensors, refer to steps #1-3 in Calibration on page 8.
GasAlertQuattro
Safety Information - Read First
Use the detector only as specified in this operator’s manual and the technical reference guide, otherwise protection provided by the detector may be impaired. Read the following Cautions before using the detector.
a
Cautions
•
Warning: Substitution of components may impair Intrinsic
Safety.
• Before using the detector, refer to
.
• Protect the combustible sensor from exposure to lead compounds, silicones, and chlorinated hydrocarbons.
Although certain organic vapors (such as leaded gasoline and halogenated hydrocarbons) may temporarily inhibit sensor performance, in most cases the sensor will recover after calibration.
• Caution: For safety reasons, this equipment must be operated and serviced by qualified personnel only. Read and understand the technical reference guide completely before operating or servicing.
1
GasAlertQuattro
Operator’s Manual
• Charge the detector before first-time use. BW Technologies by Honeywell recommends the detector be charged after every workday.
• Calibrate the detector before first-time use and then on a regular schedule, depending on use and sensor exposure to poisons and contaminants. BW recommends that the sensors must be calibrated regularly and at least once every 180 days (6 months).
• Calibrate only in a safe area that is free of hazardous gas in an atmosphere of 20.9% oxygen.
• The combustible sensor is factory calibrated to 50% LEL methane. If monitoring a different combustible gas in the
% LEL range, calibrate the sensor using the appropriate gas.
• Only the combustible gas detection portion of this instrument has been assessed for performance by CSA
International.
• BW recommends that the combustible sensor be checked with a known concentration of calibration gas after any exposure to contaminants/poisons such as sulfur compounds, silicon vapors, halogenated compounds, etc.
• BW recommends to bump test the sensors before each day’s use to confirm their ability to respond to gas by exposing the detector to a gas concentration that exceeds the alarm setpoints. Manually verify that the audible, visual, and vibrator alarms are activated. Calibrate if the readings are not within the specified limits.
• Caution: High off-scale LEL readings may indicate an explosive concentration.
2
• Any rapid upscaling reading followed by a declining or erratic reading may indicate a gas concentration beyond upper scale limit, which can be hazardous.
• For use only in potentially explosive atmospheres where oxygen concentrations do not exceed 20.9% (v/v).
• Extended exposure of the GasAlertQuattro to certain concentrations of combustible gases and air may stress the detector element that can seriously affect its performance. If an alarm occurs due to a high concentration of combustible gases, a calibration should be performed, or if needed, the sensor replaced.
• Warning
: The lithium battery (QT-BAT-R01) may present a risk of fire or chemical burn hazard if misused. Do not disassemble, heat above 212°F (100°C), or incinerate.
• Warning: Do not use any other lithium batteries with the
GasAlertQuattro detector. Use of any other cell can cause fire and/or explosion. To order and replace the QT-BAT-R01 lithium battery, contact BW Technologies by Honeywell .
•
•
Warning: Lithium polymer cells exposed to heat at 266°F
(130°C) for 10 minutes can cause fire and/or explosion.
ec
Warning : This instrument contains a lithium polymer battery. Dispose of used lithium cells immediately. Do not disassemble and do not dispose of in fire. Do not mix with the solid waste stream. Spent batteries must be disposed of by a qualified recycler or hazardous materials handler.
• Keep lithium cells away from children.
• Deactivating the detector by removing the battery pack may cause improper operation and harm the detector.

Calibration
Calibration is performed to adjust the sensitivity levels of sensors to ensure accurate responses to gas.
This calibration procedure is written as the procedure is intended.
If an error or alarm screen displays, refer to Calibration Troubleshooting in the GasAlertQuattro Technical Reference Guide.
a
Caution
Calibrate only in a safe area that is free of hazardous gas in an atmosphere of 20.9% oxygen.
If performing single gas calibration, calibrate O
2
first.
Note
The maximum hose length for calibration is 3 ft. (1 m).
The following steps are written for use with a standard quad gas cylinder.
Calibration can only be aborted after the sensors have
been zeroed. If C is pressed to abort, CALIBRATION
cancelled displays.
1. Press and hold C as the detector performs the Powering
off countdown.
Continue holding C when OFF displays and the detector briefly deactivates.
2. The detector activates again and performs the calibration countdown. Continue holding until
Starting Calibration displays.
3. The detector enters the zero function. zeroing displays while the detector zeros all of the sensors.
a
Caution
If a sensor fails to zero, it cannot be calibrated. Refer to Startup Self-Test
Troubleshooting in the
GasAlertQuattro Technical Reference
Guide.
8
If the IR Lock option is enabled, the following screen displays to indicate calibration can only be performed using an IR device (MicroDock II or
IR Link).
4. When the following screen displays, attach the calibration cap and apply calibration gas at a flow rate of 250-500 ml/min. Refer to
Connecting the Gas Cylinder to the Detector .
If a sensor is not yet due for calibration, its box will have a greyed out checkmark.
5. The detector initially tests for gas. When a sufficient amount of gas is detected, displays beside each gas that is detected.
6. The detector then begins calibrating the sensors. The following activities occur during the span:
• calibrating displays at the bottom of the screen.
• Gas values adjust during the span.
• Target gas values that are defined in Fleet Manager II display above or below the adjusting gas value.
To abort calibration after the sensors have been zeroed, press C.
7. When the following screen displays, close the valve on the gas cylinder and remove the calibration cap from the detector.
A check mark displays beside each sensor that has calibrated successfully.

8. When calibration is complete, the following screen displays.
Note
The calibration due date cannot be reset for a sensor that fails calibration. If a sensor fails or an error screen displays, refer to
Calibration Troubleshooting in the
GasAlertQuattro Technical
Reference Guide.
9. All successfully calibrated sensors automatically reset to the number of days defined in the Cal
Interval field in Fleet Manager II.
The calibration due dates can be changed in Fleet Manager II.
10. The detector now enters normal operation.
10
Bump Test
A bump test applies test gas to force the detector into alarm. A bump test should be performed regularly to confirm the sensors are responding correctly to gas, and that the audible, visual and vibrator alarms activate during an alarm condition.
The detector can also prompt for a bump test during startup when the Bump Test Interval is defined. Refer to the GasAlert-
Quattro Technical Reference Guide.
a
Caution
BW recommends to bump test the sensors before each day’s use to confirm their ability to respond to gas by exposing the sensors to a gas concentration that exceeds alarm setpoints.
1.
Connect the calibration hose to the 0.5 l/min regulator on the gas cylinder. Refer to
Connecting the Gas Cylinder to the Detector
.
To bump test using the MicroDock II station, refer to the MicroDock II User Manual.
2.
Connect the calibration hose to the intake inlet on the calibration cap. Arrows on the calibration cap indicate the direction of gas flow.
3.
Attach and tighten the calibration cap onto the detector and apply gas. Verify the visual, audible, and vibrator alarms activate.
4.
Close the regulator and remove the calibration cap.
The detector temporarily remains in alarm until the gas clears from the sensors.
