Description
The GOC-100-2 utilizes two distinct sensing technologies housed within a single chassis. It uses a galvanic cell for oxygen and a controlled potential electrolysis sensor (the CO-608E) for carbon monoxide.
The device is engineered for simplicity; with a large, backlit LCD, it displays both gas concentrations simultaneously. If levels breach the pre-set safety limits (typically 18% for O_2 and 50 ppm for CO), the unit triggers a triple-threat alarm consisting of a loud buzzer, flashing LEDs, and a strong vibration to ensure the user is alerted even in high-noise environments.
Applications
Personal Safety Monitoring: The GOC-100-2 is applied by clipping it to the user’s “breathing zone” (collar or chest pocket) before entering a work area.
Daily Start-up: Turn the unit on in a clean, fresh-air environment. The device will perform a self-check of the sensors and battery.
Auto-Zero Calibration: Perform the “One-Touch” air calibration. This sets the $O_2$ to 20.9% and the $CO$ to 0 ppm based on the ambient atmosphere.
Continuous Wear: Keep the device powered on throughout the shift. If an alarm triggers, immediately evacuate to a well-ventilated area.
Sensor Maintenance: When the sensors reach their end-of-life (indicated by a “Sensor Error” or failed calibration), replace the oxygen cell or the CO-608E electrolysis sensor as needed.
