GasAlertMicroClip
User Manual
a
Cautions
Protect the combustible sensor from exposure to lead compounds, silicones, and chlorinated hydrocarbons.
Although certain organic vapors (such as leaded gasoline and halogenated hydrocarbons) may temporarily
inhibit sensor performance, in most cases, the sensor will recover after calibration.
For use only in potentially explosive atmospheres where oxygen concentrations do not exceed 20.9% (v/v).
Any rapid up-scaling reading followed by a declining or erratic reading may indicate a gas concentration beyond
upper scale limit, which may be hazardous.
Calibrate only in a safe area that is free of hazardous gas.
Use only BW approved batteries for your GasAlertMicroClip model (see
Specifications
).
Charge the detector before first-time use. BW recommends the detector be charged after every workday.
Charge the GasAlertMicroClip using the recommended charging adapter only. Do not use any other charging
adapter. Failure to observe this precaution could lead to fire or explosion.
Extended exposure of the GasAlertMicroClip to certain concentrations of combustible gases and air may stress a
detector element, which can seriously affect its performance. If an alarm occurs due to high concentration of
combustible gases, recalibration should be performed, or if needed, the sensor replaced.
Do not test the combustible sensor’s response with a butane cigarette lighter; doing so will damage the sensor.
Do not expose the detector to electrical shock and/or severe continuous mechanical shock.
Do not attempt to disassemble, adjust, or service the detector unless instructions for that procedure are
contained in the manual and/or that part is listed as a replacement part. Use only BW Technologies by Honeywell
replacement parts
.
The detector warranty will be voided if customer, personnel, or third parties damage the detector during repair
attempts. Non-BW Technologies by Honeywell repair/service attempts void this warranty.
