Configuring the PID Sensor

Selecting a Single Target Gas

The PID sensor supports just over 1000 predetermined target gases. These gases are listed in alphabetical order by their common name.

  1. Scroll through the Target gas listing until you find the gas you are looking for, then select it, or, Search for a specific gas by typing the CAS number or gas name (your entry must be identical to the name as listed, including capitalization) into the Target gas field.

  2. For the majority of single gases, after you select a gas, the threshold settings are automatically updated with defaults. If the gas you select does not have default thresholds or if the default thresholds do not meet your organization's recommendations, you need to update these.

The PID sensor cannot detect all organic chemicals. If you want to detect a specific gas that is not included in the list of Target gases, please contact Blackline Technical Support.
