5 RECOMMENDATIONS 

 

The analyzer should be used in environments where the temperature is between -5°C and +45°C. 

 

When the analysis are completed, before switch the instrument off, remove the probe from the gas pathway and wait 
about 30 seconds cleaning the pneumatic circuit from gas. 

 

Do not use the analyzer with clogged filters or filled with humidity. 

 

Before placing the probe in the case, be sure that the probe, the water trap and the hose are clean and cold. 

 

If you have ordered a double hose sampling probe, insert both connectors to the instrument during the gas analysis 
(pay attention to color correspondence). 

 

To empty the water trap from the condensate water, remove the draining plug. DO NOT OPEN the water trap. DO 
NOT leave the water trap without the draining rubber plug. 

 

For the best efficiency and accuracy, we suggest to calibrate the instrument every year

BEFORE STARTING THE OPERATION

5.1 Power 

supply 

The instrument can be powered from: 

 

internal rechargeable Ni-MH battery. 

 

External battery charger, supplied as a standard accessory (the batteries must be installed). 

 

Optional external DC auto battery charger (the batteries must be installed). 

 
The Ni-MH rechargeable batteries allows a long time operation and do not need maintenance. The same batteries power 
both the instrument and the internal printer. The internal battery will grant 5 hours continuous operation (without printing 
and display back light off).

BATTERY CHARGING CAN BE OBTEINED IN 

HOURS WITH THE INSTRUMENT SWITCHED OFF

 
During operation a fully battery symbol “

” will be displayed on the display. This symbol means that the batteries are 

completely full. When the batteries will be discharged the symbol “

” will appear and the instrument still has about 20 

minutes operation capability to end the running analysis. 
The battery symbol indicates that a full charge is required. Use only the dedicated battery charger supplied by Eclipse 
together the instrument.
