  Note: Make sure the polarity of the sensor is respected.

6.0   PRECAUTIONS

1. 

While you are using the instrument, the pressure of the refrigeration system should be no more than 50psi, and the search area should be 
almost draft-free. If there is wind, refrigerant gas escaping from the leak will be quickly dispersed away from the source, thus compromising 

gas measurement and detection.

2. 

The Autozero function is on by default, so when the detector turns on and detects refrigerant gas, it will autozero the with the value of 
refrigerant gas in the room at that time. In case Autozero is disabled, you have to press ‘RESET’ button briefly to zero the gas concentration 

manually.

3. 

The most likely sources of gas leaks are in places polluted with oil or dust and pipe joints. These places should be checked as a priority.

4. 

The sensor should ideally be kept 3 ... 5 mm (1/8 ... 1/4 inch) from the suspected leak while searching, so as to preserve the sensor from 
environmental pollution that could interfere with the accuracy of the sensor. We recommend moving the probe at a speed to cover 25 ... 50 
mm per second (1 or 2 inches/second).

5. 

It is forbidden to bring the sensor into direct contact with an environment with a concentration higher than 30,000 ppm refrigerant gas.
