of measurement within two (Low and High) settings of sensitivity.
When the tool senses the presence of a combustible gas, it will tell
the operator by blinking the appropriate light(s), triggering the ap-
propriate audible alert or providing the appropriate vibration alert.
The micro CD-100 comes equipped with an attached flexible 40 cm
probe hose.

cause serious personal injury or death. Know the character-
istics of the gas you are working with and use proper precau-
tions to avoid hazardous conditions.
• Always turn on and calibrate the gas detector in an area
known to be free of combustible gases. Calibration in an
area containing combustible gas will result in incorrect calibra-
tion and lower than actual readings. This could result in com-
bustible gases not being detected.

Description
The RIDGID
®
micro CD-100 Combustible Gas Detector is a gas leak
locating tool that is used to identify the presence of and isolate the
source location of combustible gases such as methane, propane,
butane, ammonia, carbon monoxide and many others (please see
back of manual for a more complete list). Even low levels of com-
bustible gas can be detected in seconds.
The micro CD-100 detects gas concentrations through the use of
an internal sensor. This sensor is heated during operation. As the
heated sensor interacts with gases, the unit immediately indicates
to the user that combustible gases are present. The micro CD-100
indicates the presence of combustible gases with visual, audio and
vibration feedback mechanisms. There are five (5) threshold levels
