Study Notes

Gas Detection Capabilities

Honeywell BW Ultra can monitor up to five gases simultaneously.
Default gases:
- Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) - ppm
- Carbon Monoxide (CO) - ppm
- Oxygen (O2) - % volume
- Combustible gases (LEL) - %LEL and 0-5.0% v/v methane
Optional gas: Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN) - ppm

Alarm Systems

Alarm features: flashing lights, vibrations, and loud sirens.
Stealth mode: only activates vibration.
Always respond to alarms; never ignore them.

Activation Procedures

Activate in a safe environment with 20.9% oxygen.
First-time use requires an 8-hour battery charge; LED light indicates charge status.
The activation process includes warming sensors and a pump test.

Four main menu items: Information, Start Bump Test, Zero Sensors, Start Calibration.
Access menus by double-pressing the button; navigate using the button.
Follow on-screen instructions for each operation.

Alarm Acknowledgment

Acknowledge alarms by pressing and releasing the button.
Can acknowledge latching alarms, low alarms, and calibration reminders.

Operating Modes

Three operational modes:
- Essentials mode: Displays only gas readings.
- Hole Watch mode: Default for confined space monitoring, uses bar graphs for gas level representation.
- Inert mode: Activated when oxygen levels drop below 10%, requires user confirmation for initiation.

Bluetooth Connectivity

Supports Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for mobile device pairing.
Connects to the Honeywell Safety Communicator app for real-time gas readings and alarm notifications.
Pairing is restricted during start-up, calibration, or testing.

Maintenance Guidelines

Regular maintenance: calibration, bump tests, inspections, and keeping an operations log.
Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth with water-based cleaners; avoid soaps and solvents.

Charging Instructions

Charge using the provided SELV/LVLC certified adapter.
Full charge requires up to 8 hours in a temperature range of 5 °C to 35 °C.
