GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS

 

IMPORTANT SAFETY  WARNINGS

  Read entire Safety Notes section regarding potential hazard and proper instructions before using  this analyzer. In this manual the 

word “

WARNING

” is used to indicate conditions or actions that may pose physical hazards to the user. The word “

CAUTION

” is used to 

indicate conditions or actions that may damage this instrument. This analyzer must only be used in well-ventilated locations by trained 

and competent persons after due consideration of all potential hazards. 

  To ensure safe operation and service of the tester, follow these instructions. Failure to observe these warnings can result in 

severe injury or death.

  

• Do not use this analyzer during electrical storms or in wet weather.

• To avoid false readings, charge batteries if a low battery indicator appears.  

• Always adhere to national and local safety codes. Use proper personal protective equipment (PPE).  

  This analyzer extracts combustion gases that may be toxic in relatively low concentrations. These gases are exhausted from the 

back of the analyzer.

  This analyzer is designed for trade professionals who are familiar with the hazards of their trade. Observe all recommended safety 

procedures that include proper lockout utilization and use of personal protective equipment that includes safety glasses, gloves and 

flame resistant clothing.

Users of portable gas detectors are recommended to conduct a “bump” check before relying on the unit to verify an atmosphere is free 

from hazard. A ‘bump” test is a means of verifying that an instrument is working within acceptable limits by briefly exposing to a known 

gas mixture formulated to change the output of all the sensors present. This is different from a calibration where the instrument is also 

exposed to a known gas mixture but is allowed to settle to a steady figure and the reading adjusted to the stated gas concentration of 

the test gas.
