Important Information
The modification of the material and the use of parts of an unspecified origin
shall entail the cancellation of any form of warranty.
The use of the unit has been projected for the applications specified in the
technical characteristics. Exceeding the indicated values cannot in any case
be authorized.
Catalytic sensors are susceptible to poisoning by traces of several
substances. This leads to an inhibition which can be permanent or temporary
depending on the contaminant, the concentration of the contaminant, the
duration of exposure to the contaminant.
Poisoning may result from exposure to substances as:
•
silicones (e.g. waterproofing, adhesives, release agents, special oils
and greases, certain medical products, commercial cleaning agents)
•
tetraethyl lead (e.g. leaded
petrol, particularly aviation petrol ‘Avgas’)
•
sulfur compounds (sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide)
•
halogenated compounds (R134a, HFO, etc.)
•
organo-phosphorus compounds (e.g. herbicides, insecticides, and
phosphate esters in fireproof hydraulic fluids)
Oldham recommends regular testing of fixed gas detection installations (read
Chapter 8).
