2. OPERATION 

 
Please read all the following information before attempting to install the Ozone 
Monitor.  For assistance, please call 2B Technologies at (303)273-0559. 
 

NOTE: 

Save the shipping carton and packing materials that came with the Ozone 

Monitor.  If the Ozone Monitor must be returned to the factory, pack it in 

the original carton.  Any repairs as a result of damage incurred during 

shipping will be charged.

immediately. 
 

 
Operation of the Ozone Monitor

 

 
To operate the Ozone Monitor, connect it to an external power source and 
power the instrument by switching the power switch on.  The instrument 
requires a 12 V DC source which can be supplied by:  1) the 100-240 V AC 
power adapter, 2) a cigarette lighter adapter plugged into a 12 V DC source 
such as found in an automobile or many light aircraft, or 3) a 12 V battery.  The 
source can be in the range 11-28 V DC without any detrimental effects on the 
measurement.  When using a battery, be certain to attach the positive (red) and
