EXO 8 FAQs

How long will EXO 8's battery last?

The battery pack can power EXO 8 for up to 100 days with one charge. Actual battery life will vary depending on device configurations, alert response, operating temperature, sensor types and pump usage.

Can EXO 8 be hung by its handle?

EXO 8 should not be hung by its handle alone. You can hang EXO by its handle using the EXO Hanging Mount Kit.

EXO’s mounting plate can be used to mount EXO to the EXO base, a surveyor’s tripod, or the EXO universal mount. When using the universal mount, a cable should be threaded through EXO’s handle and used to anchor the device as an added safety measure.

What gas cartridges can EXO 8 use?

EXO 8 can use Blackline Safety’s multi-gas cartridges. Single-gas and multi-gas pumped cartridges are not compatible with EXO 8.

When EXO 8 goes into alert, how do I determine the cause of the alert?

When a high urgency or low urgency notification is activated on EXO, the dashboard screen status and the banner at the top of the screen will provide information about the notification.

If the notification is gas related, the corresponding gas reading card on the live readings screen will change to yellow for a low urgency notification or red for a high urgency notification.
