WARNINGS and SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The TUFF
TM
series of air sampling pumps are designed to be robust, however they should
not be dropped or subjected to mechanical shock. Do not suck in water, or highly saturated
or corrosive gases. Failure to comply will render the warranty invalid.
The air sampling pumps contain no user serviceable parts and if a fault is suspected the
instrument must be returned immediately to Casella CEL or to a Casella CEL Approved
Agency for repair.
The warranty does not extend to cleaning or general servicing of the instrument.
Pumps which are not in regular use, or those which have been left on the shelf for several
days, when switched on, may not display a true indication of the current battery charge
status. To ensure accurate battery condition monitoring and charge status displays, it is
advisable to perform one or two complete charge and discharge cycles prior to use.
Warnings for Intrinsically Safe Versions:
The following warnings should be observed for intrinsically safe versions of the TUFF
Pump:-
•
DO NOT
attempt to download data via the I.R port in a hazardous area.
