DANGER 

COMBUSTIBLE GAS USAGE 

WARNING

 

 

 
 

This is instrument is Factory Mutual Approved as an 
intrinsically safe and explosion proof gas analyzer for use in 
Class I, II, and III Divisions 1 Groups A through G hazardous 
areas. This approval applies only to the equipment specified 
and installed in accordance with the information contained 
within this manual. It is the customer's responsibility to 
ensure safety especially when combustible gases are being 
analyzed since the potential of gas leaks always exist. 

The customer should ensure that the principles of operating 
of this equipment is well understood by the user and that the 
instrument as well as any approved support equipment is 
properly installed. Misuse of this product in any manner, 
tampering with its components, or unauthorized substitution 
of any component may adversely affect the certification and 
the safety of this instrument. 

Since the use of this instrument is beyond the control of 
Teledyne, no responsibility by Teledyne, its affiliates, and 
agents for damage or injury from misuse or neglect of this 
equipment is implied or assumed.
