15 Optional Sensors
Optional sensors are available for use in CO
2
(PN 724-701-G2) or flammable
refrigerant (PN 724-701-G3) applications. To use the CO
2
or flammable refrigerant
sensor, remove the standard sensor and install the new sensor following the
instructions in Removing and Installing the Sensor [
}
18]. D-TEK 3 automatically
recognizes the sensor type and the MODE indicator illuminates the appropriate color
to indicate the sensor type the entire time the sensor is installed. Green indicates CO
2
,
red indicates flammable refrigerant, and orange indicates the standard refrigerant
sensor is installed.
If D-TEK 3 does not automatically recognize your flammable refrigerant sensor,
contact INFICON to arrange a software test.
The flammable refrigerant sensor does not detect hydrogen, including hydrogen
forming gas.
While searching for CO
2
leaks, it is recommended to wear a respirator or mask to
avoid exhaling CO
2
toward the probe.
WARNING
Exposure to high concentrations of CO
2
or refrigerants is dangerous and can
be life-threatening.
The instrument is not for use in toxic or hazardous environments. It is not a personal
protection or life-saving device. Always exercise extreme caution in potentially toxic or
hazardous environments.
WARNING
This product is not intrinsically safe and should not be used in the presence of
explosive fumes, explosive dust, or other explosive chemicals. Use in an
environment with flammable refrigerant concentration approaching the LEL
could cause an explosion or fire resulting in serious injury, death, or damage
to property.
