| General Description The FX-1500 Toxic Gas Detector is an electronic system designed to rapidly detect and warn of hazardous toxic gas concentrations or low oxygen levels. The system consists of a toxic gas or oxygen sensor and a remote alarm unit that can be located up to 2000 feet away from the hazard area. |
 |
 |
 |
| Light and Horn Application Important - It is recommended that the remote alarm be mounted outside the hazard area. FX-1500 Gas Detectors may not be heard or seen. The loudness of the horn in the FX-1500 Gas Detector meets (or exceeds) current standards. However, if the FX-1500 Gas Detector is placed in a closed room, it may not be seen or heard by personnel, especially if the door does not have a window to see the visual alarm. Even normal noise such as traffic, motors running, radios, and air conditioners may prevent personnel from hearing the audible alarm. FX-1500 Gas Detectors may not be heard or seen by persons who are hard of hearing or visually impaired. It is recommended that the remote warning device be installed to alert personnel before reentering a room. Several detectors are recommended both outside the building or in any room that contain personnel, where toxic gas or low oxygen levels can develop. |

|
| Warning Correct installation of the sensor depends mostly on what type of gas the detector is monitoring the air for. If the gas is heavier than air, then the sensor should be placed closer to the floor and vice versa for gases which are lighter than air. |

| Warning Appropriate positioning of the sensor is imperative to the operation of the detector. Location will either result in rapid alarming of hazardous toxic gas leaks or low oxygen levels or it can delay or fail to warn of a hazardous condition. |

| Warning Gas Detectors will not sense a toxic gas leak or oxygen if the gas does not reach the sensing chamber. |

| Automobile Emission Testing Stations Correct installation of the sensor depends mostly on what type to gas the detector is monitoring the air for. If the gas is heavier than air, then the sensor should be placed closer to the floor. If the gas is lighter than air, then the sensor should be placed high up on the wall, nearer to the ceiling. |

 |
| Warning Never create a toxic gas leak to test and verify the funciton of a Gas Detector. A certified method of testing is recommended. |
