6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Power On/Off

Press and hold the Power On/Off button (usually the central button with a power symbol) to turn the device on or off. The display will illuminate upon power-on.

6.2 Display Information

The LCD displays the following information:

• NH3 Concentration: Shown in PPM (parts per million).
• Humidity: Indicated as %RH.
• Temperature: Displayed in °C or °F.
• Battery Indicator: Shows current battery level.

6.3 Button Functions

• °C/°F Button: Press to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature units.
• ALARM Button: Used to access and adjust alarm settings.
• MODE Button: Used to cycle through different display modes or settings.
• Increment Button (Up Arrow): Used to increase values during setting adjustments.
• Decrement Button (Down Arrow): Used to decrease values during setting adjustments.

6.4 Setting Alarms

To set the ammonia concentration alarm threshold:

1. Press the ALARM button to enter alarm setting mode.
2. Use the Increment and Decrement buttons to adjust the desired NH3 alarm threshold.
3. Press the ALARM button again or wait for a few seconds to save the setting and exit.

When the detected NH3 concentration exceeds the set alarm threshold, the device will activate both audible and visual alarms (alarm indicator light will flash).

6.5 Ammonia Gas Hazard Index

Understanding the potential risks associated with different ammonia concentrations is crucial for safety. The following table outlines the hazard index for human exposure to ammonia gas:
