Maintenance 

The Macurco DMK-1 requires minimal maintenance. Ensure that the vented sampling inlets remain unobstructed 
and is free of debris to maintain good air flow through the enclosure. Please refer to the specific detector User 
Instructions for maintenance requirements, installation information and warnings. 

4.1.1

 

Cleaning of the external surfaces is best carried out using a damp cloth with a mild detergent or soap. Use a 
vacuum cleaner with soft brush to remove dust or contamination under the cover and to clean the vented 
sampling inlets.  

   

WARNING

 

Do not blow out the sensor with compressed air. Using compressed air may damage 
the sensor causing the sensor to not respond to the target gas.   

 

   

WARNING

 

High voltage terminals (120/240 VAC) are located within the Macurco 12 series 
detectors, presenting a hazard to service technicians. Only qualified technicians should 
open the detector case and service the internal circuits. Ensure power is de-energized 
from the detector relays prior to servicing the unit. Failure to do so may result in 
electrical shock. 

 

   

CAUTION

 

Avoid using caustic, abrasive cleaners and other organic solvents.  These materials may 
scratch surfaces and permanently damage the display window, labels, sensor or 
instrument case.
