G-Finder Single   

Instruction Manual 

G-Finder Single is a personal safety device 
designed for monitoring the atmosphere for 
potentially hazardous level of a gas enrichment or 
deficiency in diffusion mode using one 
electrochemical sensor for one of three gases: 
Oxygen (O

2

), Carbon Monoxide (CO) or Hydrogen 

Sulfide (H2S) by selecting at order. Power is 
provided by one, non-user replaceable, lithium-
thionyl chloride primary cell. Readings are 
displayed on LCD and the device has audible, 
visual, and vibrating alarms when set, user-
configurable conditions are exceeded. It is your 
responsibility to respond appropriately to the 
alarms. G-Finder Single has no facilities for 
connection of external electrical circuits. G-Finder 
Single has IR communications for changing the 
alarm set point, the calibration range and etc. The 
IR communications shall only be used in safe area.   

WARNING 

1)

 

G-Finder Single is designed for single use and 
comes with a non-field replaceable lithium-ion 
battery, filter and sensor already installed and 
ready for use.   

 

2)

 

Do not attempt replacement or substitution of 
components. Replacement or Substitution of 
components may impair Intrinsic Safety and 
will void the warranty of the product. 

 

3)

 

The electrical, electronic and battery elements 
of this product must not be disposed of via 
municipal waste streams; they should be 
disposed of by a qualified recycler or 
hazardous materials handler. Correct disposal 
will contribute to recycling of materials and 
prevent negative consequences for the 
environment. 

 

4)

 

It is recommended performing a bump test 
prior to G-Finder Single use every day to 
confirm sensor response and alarm activation 
by exposing the detector to a concentration of 
target gas that exceeds the low alarm set 
point. 

 

5)

 

In case of G-Finder Single O2, for optimal 
performance, periodically calibrate zero for 
the sensor.   

 

6)

 

For all gas type of G-Finder Single, always 
proceed bump test and calibration at room 
temperature and in a fresh air environment 
(20.9% v/v O2) that is free of hazardous gas. 

 

7)

 

The display window may have potential 
electrostatic charging hazard. Therefore, do 
not rub or wipe the display window to avoid 
the build up of electrostatic charge on the 
surface. Additionally, the display window shall 
only be cleaned with a damp cloth. 

CAUTION 

1)

 

Activate G-Finder Single before the activation 
date on the package. 

 

2)

 

In order to maintain normal operation of G-
Finder Single, keep the gas sensor grill from 
clogging and keep the gas sensor, LED and 
buzzer hole surfaces free from dust and dirt. 
Clean the exterior with a soft and damp cloth. 

 

3)

 

When using G-Finder Single, sudden change 
in the temperature may cause change in the 
detected gas concentration value suddenly. 
Using in a stable temperature environment is 
recommended for more accurate detection. 

 

4)

 

G-Finder Single is a gas detector, not a 
measurement device. 

 

5)

 

Portable safety gas detectors are life safety 
devices. Accuracy of ambient gas reading is 
dependent upon factors such as accuracy of 
the calibration gas standard used for 
calibration and frequency of calibration.
