Short term exposure limit (STEL)
The sensor short term exposure limit (STEL) notification is activated when
G6 detects you have reached the STEL threshold configured by your
safety supervisor.
STEL refers to the gas concentration that you can be continuously
exposed to for a configurable time frame without suffering adverse
health effects. STEL represents the rolling average of a live gas reading
over the duration of a configured time interval.
If a STEL notification is activated, immediately evacuate the area, and
follow your emergency safety protocol. Once you are in a safe location,
read the information on G6’s screen.
To acknowledge and mute the notification, select
by pressing center
button.
This does not cancel your device’s connection to Blackline Live.
NOTE:
If connectivity is unavailable, event data is stored and uploaded to
Blackline Live during the next scheduled synchronization for your device.
When you acknowledge the high urgency notification, G6’s Home screen
and banner will reflect the STEL status until the gas conditions dissipate
and the STEL event is resolved.
The device’s red light pattern will persist after you acknowledge/mute the
notification until the STEL event is resolved.
Following the STEL gas notification, the notification remains active until
the STEL value drops below the configured time and concentration
setpoints, or the STEL value is manually reset.
NOTE:
You can reset the STEL while your device is experiencing a high
urgency STEL notification and the STEL notification will clear. However, if
gas is still present, the corresponding high or low gas notification will
remain active.
For more information on viewing and resetting gas readings, refer to
Viewing and Resetting Gas Readings.
