Before operating and installing please read this manual carefully. This manual is an integral part of the
DE-
OX
®
SUN
helium analyzer. The use of this instrument implicates total acceptance of the present section.
All warranties relevant to this instrument are void if is not operated and maintained in accordance with this
manual.
TEMC
®
disclaims every responsibility for the improper, wrong or incorrect use of this measurement
instrument. Before use, it is necessary to receive a proper training on mixed gas diving and gas mixtures
analysis for diving applications. It is dangerous to breathe mixed gas with any percentage of oxygen different
from 21% and containing helium. Sport and mixed gas diving is a potentially hazardous and dangerous
activity that may lead to death if practised incorrectly. Manipulating mixed gas with oxygen is dangerous and
requires special training and oxygen dedicated equipment. The present instrument does not replace the
necessary notional and practice training for these activities. The data displayed are a mathematical
elaboration based on physical laws but they are not representative of the complexity of human physiology
and of the different psycho-physical situation of use by customers.
TEMC

The operator of this instrument is responsible for any damage or injury resulting from improper use,
unauthorized repair, improper maintenance, or damage by anyone other than
TEMC

instrument for data cross checking.

General Specifications
Thank you for buying
DE-OX
®
SUN
analyzer. It represents the
simplest and up-to-date mobile measurement instrument for
the analysis of helium in mixed gas. Unique features include
two level alarms, standard analog 4-20 mA and Open
Collector outputs.
DE-OX® SUN
has been especially designed and
manufactured for the analysis of binary and ternary gas mix
like Heliox and Trimix.
DE-OX® SUN
comprises in just one integrate device the
helium sensor, the electronic board and the battery. The
instrument does not need any calibration.
DE-OX® SUN
can be used for continuously reading during
mixed gas filling. It can alert and help in switching off the
compressor if the helium value goes out the set alarms range
(for instance 45% helium).
DE-OX® SUN
is based on an innovative sensor developed by
TEMC
®
for respiratory use and for monitoring the respiratory
parameters in saturation dives.
Main features:
o Helium indication in any Oxygen-Nitrogen mix in the range 0.0
- 100.0% of volume. 0,1 % resolution.
o Full digital measurement instrument.
o Thermal conductivity stainless steel helium sensor developed
for marine sport ambient.
o Extra long file sensor life
