1 • Introduction Eagle Instruction Manual

Introduction

Overview

The RKI Eagle is the most advanced portable gas detection system

available. The Eagle is built for rugged reliability and ease of use and

includes the latest innovations in gas detection technology:

• Simultaneous detection of one to six gases. Standard target gases

include combustible gas (% LEL and ppm), oxygen deficiency,

carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide.

• Powerful sample-drawing pump with up to 100-foot range.

• Dot-matrix liquid crystal display (LCD) for complete,

understandable information at a glance.

• Microprocessor control for all functions, including data logging

and user-adjustable alarms.

• Visible and audible alarms for hazardous conditions and

malfunctions.

• UL and CSA classified. Intrinsic safety for Class I, Division I,

Groups A, B, C, and D hazardous atmospheres (standard 4-gas

model and non-standard toxic gas versions). Consult RKI

Instrument, Inc. for classification of other Eagle versions.

• Tough case with a balanced, light-weight design.

WARNING: The Eagle detects a combination of combustible gas,

oxygen deficiency, hydrogen sulfide and carbon

monoxide, or other toxic gases which can be lethal. When

using the Eagle, you must follow the instructions and

warnings in this manual to assure proper and safe

operation of the unit and to minimize the risk of

personal injury. Be sure to maintain and periodically

calibrate the Eagle as described in this manual.

About this Manual

This manual is intended for use with all Eagle models. Examples used

in this manual are for the standard four-gas model (combustible gas,

oxygen, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide). Differences

between the standard four-gas model and other Eagle models are

noted where applicable. This manual is organized as follows:

• The standard sections included in pages 1 through 49 describe the

Eagle’s specifications and internal and external components. These

sections also describe the operation, calibration, and maintenance

of the Eagle.

• Appendix A lists part numbers for the Eagle’s replacement parts

and accessories.

• Appendix B describes the Eagle’s methane elimination feature.

• Appendices C through E describe the Eagle’s non-standard

sensors.

• Appendix F describes the Eagle tank tester model.

• Appendix G describes the Eagle’s five- and six-gas models.

• Appendix H describes the procedure to install the Eagle’s optional

Data Logger board.
