GENie O3 Module
Fast warm-up time allows the instrument to be turned off between
remotely located sensors saving battery life and avoiding the generation
of unwanted gas. The GENie O3 module uses the following components to
produce the calibration gas/air mixture:
Internal Micro Pump
A small, rotary vane, micro air pump draws in ambient air to blend with
the generated gas.
Ultraviolet Light Source
The ultraviolet light source is calibrated at the factory. A precise
concentration of gas is produced when a known amount of current and a
known amount of air is supplied continuously to the source. Each source
has a built-in memory chip that tells the main GENie instrument what type
and range of gas can be generated and how much source life is remaining.
This source should be calibrated at the factory annually or at 100 hours of
operation whichever comes first. The estimated life of the source is 500
hours of operation.
Operation
To start the instrument, press and hold the POWER switch, located in the
lower right of the front of the instrument, until the display reads GENie O3,
approximately five (5) seconds. Release the switch immediately thereafter.
The instrument will sequence through several screens as follows:
GENie 1.2 O3

The instrument will display the serial number and source number,
followed by the manufactured date. The calibration date is the date the
instrument was last calibrated.
