Measurements in technical gases
If the "MEASUREMENT TECHN. GAS" mode is selected, the user can
only manually operate the instrument. In this case, the user will be
prompted to start the measurement with a special operation procedure
needed for measurements in technical gases. This mode is used to
consider the different viscosity of a technical gas compared to the
viscosity of ambient air. Following the menu in this mode, the
Dräger X-act 5000 will automatically be adjusted to the needed flow
parameter. The measurement result can be read out directly at the
tube. The tubes listed in Chap. 10 can be used for measurement.
