CAUTION: The GX-6000 detects oxygen deficiency and elevated levels of oxygen, combustible gases, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide, all of which can be dangerous or life threatening. When using the GX-6000, you must follow the instructions and warnings in the GX-6000 Operator’s Manual to assure proper and safe operation of the instrument and to minimize the risk of personal injury. CAUTION: The operator of this instrument is ...

Cautions & Safety Information • Use only polyurethane sample tubing with the SDM-6000. Consult RKI Instruments, Inc. for other materials. • Do not subject the SDM-6000 to infrared or intense light. This may cause communication errors. • Do not expose the SDM-6000 to water. • Do not subject the SDM-6000 to any hard impact. Specifications Table 1: Specifications Input Power 24 VDC Environmental Conditions • For I ...

How to Build a System Various accessories are included with the SDM-6000 depending on what SDM-6000 bundle is ordered. See the table below for what’s included with each basic bundle. Other bundles are available that include different calibration gas cylinders than the 4-gas mix included in the 81-SDM6000-04. The accessories are described in more detail in “Chapter 2: Description” on page 6. Every installation needs only 1 ...

Chapter 2: Description Overview This section describes the SDM-6000 docking station’s components, various accessories that may or may not be included depending on what bundle was ordered, and optional accessories that are not included in any bundles. SDM-6000 Components The SDM-6000 consists of the touch screen, status LED, instrument cradle, gas in/ gas out cover, left panel, mating slave connections, exhaust fitting, air filter, exhaust ...

Touch Screen The LCD touch screen is located at the bottom front of the SDM-6000. In a single SDM-6000 system, the touch screen includes the Function and Unit Tabs. In a multi- SDM-6000 system, the master (leftmost) SDM-6000’s touch screen includes the Function and Unit Tabs and any slave SDM-6000s’ touch screens only display the Unit Tab information. The Function and Unit tabs are described below in "Function Tab" and "Unit T ...

Function Tab Figure 4: Function Tab The Function Tab allows the user to: • initiate a bump test • initiate a calibration • initiate an alarm check • set operational parameters It is present on the touch screen of a single SDM-6000 system and on the touch screen of the master (leftmost) SDM-6000 in a multi-SDM-6000 system. It has the same appearance in both systems. The text field above the BUMP and CAL buttons shows instr ...

Controller Program to enter the cylinder information, then the cylinder icon will always be grey. The table below lists all of the possible colors for the cylinder logo and describes their meaning. Table 4: Cylinder Logo Colors The ten squares along the bottom of the Function Tab are the Station/Instrument Indicators. They represent up to ten SDM-6000s and GX-6000s in an SDM-6000 system from left to right. In a single SDM-6000 sys ...

Table 6: Docking Station Indicator Icons Unit Tab The Unit Tab shows the gas combination of a connected GX-6000 along with auto calibration values and the pass/fail status of any tests. It’s appearance varies slightly depending on whether the SDM-6000 is a single station system, the master (leftmost) station in a multi-station system, or a slave station in a multi-station system. The text field above the gas combination which s ...

Figure 5: Unit Tab, Single SDM-6000 System Figure 6: Unit Tab, Multi-SDM-6000 System The Auto Bump selection box appears at the bottom of the screen only in a single station system. It can be selected or deselected. If selected, a bump test will automatically begin as soon as an instrument is connected. If deselected, a bump test will not automatically begin when an instrument is connected. In a multi-station system, the Auto B ...

Status LED The Status LED is located to the right of the touch screen. The table below summarizes the meaning of the LED’s different colors. Table 7: Status LED Colors Instrument Cradle The instrument cradle is a recessed area in the middle of the SDM-6000 that is designed to accept the GX-6000. Insert the GX-6000 in the instrument cradle with the belt clip facing out before you perform a bump test, calibration, alarm check or ...

Left Panel Components The SDM-6000’s left panel includes the SD card slot, the USB PC connector, the USB printer connector, the LAN connector, the on/off switch, the power jack, an electrical connector, and the sample fittings. SD Card Slot The SD card slot at the top of the left side of the SDM-6000 allows for the installation of an SDHC card. The SDM-6000’s data files are saved to the SD card. If an SD card is not installed ...
