The device should be inspected and maintained by suitably qualified persons every six
months (consult: EN 60079-29-2 – Gas measuring device - Selection, installation, use and
maintenance of apparatus for the measurement of combustible gases or oxygen, EN 45544-4

.
— Before you carry out safety-related relevant measurements, the zero point and sensitivity
of the devices should be tested in accordance with national regulations.
●
Inspection by suitably qualified persons – every year.
— The inspection intervals must be established in each individual case and shortened if ne-
cessary, depending on technical safety considerations, engineering conditions and the
technical requirements of the equipment.
— We recommend that a service agreement be concluded with Dräger Safety and that re-
pairs also be carried out by them.
