E2618-NH3-E
Rev 09.03.2021
Operating conditions
The device should be used both in a non-hazardous area and in a basic electromagnetic
environment, where the latter is defined in EN 61326-1. Avoid strong mechanical shock and
vibrations. Avoid corrosive atmosphere and areas highly contaminated with dust, oil mist
etc. Keep the instrument away from direct sunlight. A sudden temperature or humidity
change might affect the sensitivity of the sensor.
NOTE! The electrochemical NH
3
gas sensor implemented in the instrument may exhibit
considerable cross-sensitivity to hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide. For
more information please visit our website evikon.eu.
NOTE! This instrument version with an electrochemical gas sensor is intended for the
control of eventual leakages (e.g. in refrigeration systems). Do not use the instrument in
the areas with constant background concentration of ammonia, like cattle and poultry
farms.
