  • Page 7: System Description

    The Honeywell EC-P2 is a portable, battery operated instrument for the measurement of gas concentrations in ambient air. The Honeywell EC-P2 can be converted from one target gas to another by simply plugging in a different SMART-CELL for the desired target gas (takes about 30 seconds).

    3 Maintenance 3.1 Periodic Maintenance It is essential that the test and calibration schedule be adhered to. Honeywell Analytics recommends the following maintenance schedule: • Response test prior to each use. Expose sensor to a sample of the target gas to verify proper sensor response and alarm functions.

    The detector does not start: Check to see that a fresh battery is installed. Both the primary and standby batteries must be discharged for this problem to occur. Plug the charger into the Honeywell EC-P2 to charge the standby battery. Wait 10 minutes and retry.
  • Page 14 Unit does not respond when keys are pressed: Press and hold all four buttons for five seconds. This will reset the Honeywell EC-P2. Turn the unit back on by pressing the PWR button.

    4 Programming and Advanced Features 4.1 Alarm Setpoints, Functions The Honeywell EC-P2 has three adjustable alarm setpoints. These setpoints are stored on each SMART-CELL. The Caution setpoint is to warn of excessive negative zero drift. The WARNING and ALARM setpoints are to warn of potentially dangerous target gas concentrations.
