safety. If the unit is used by continuously without inspection, the sensor sensitivity may change,
resulting in failure of correct detection.
WARNING
・ Be sure to inform sections concerned beforehand when performing alarm test or gas calibration.
For the equipment connected with output signal from indicator/alarm unit, perform them after
