 Wiring 

Determine the cable type to use and laying distance in consideration of the above parameters to 
maintain explosion-proof performance. 
Perform wiring so that a current or voltage that disturbs intrinsically safe explosion-proof 
performance of the intrinsically safe circuit is not induced to the circuit due to electromagnetic or 
electrostatic induction. 

 

 Battery 

The detector contains a battery for sensor backup. Observe the followings to maintain explosion-
proof performance. 
<Usable battery> 

Type 

: AAA alkaline dry battery 

Model : 

LR03 

Nominal voltage  : 1.5 V 

<Battery Replacement> 

Turn off the power of the detector before replacing the battery. 
Never fail to use the dedicated battery storage case. 

 

 Grounding 

Never fail to ground the detector (D type grounding). 

 

 Others 

Confirm that no combustible gas is present around before opening the door of the unit. 
Never disassemble or modify the unit.
