Eagle Eye GD-3000 User Manual
3.8 Sensor Poisons
The gas sensor in the detector is designed with extreme sensitivity to the environment.
As a result, the sensing function may be deteriorated if it is exposed to a direct spray
from aerosols such as paints, silicone vapors, etc., or to a high density of corrosive
gases (such as hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide) for an extended period of time.
4. MAINTENANCE
The Eagle Eye GD-3000 Combustible Gas Detector does not require regular
maintenance other than cleaning. The unit uses a long life pellistor sensor that has a 5+
year life expectancy.
WARNING
Do not disassemble unit or attempt to repair or modify any component of this
instrument. This instrument contains no user serviceable parts, and substitution of
components may impair intrinsic safety, which may adversely affect product
performance and
result in sickness or death.
CAUTION
• Avoid the use of harsh cleaning materials, abrasives and other organic solvents. Such
materials may permanently scratch the surfaces and damage the display window,
labels, or instrument housing.
4.1 Cleaning
Cleaning of the external surfaces is best carried out using a damp cloth with a mild
detergent or soap. Vacuum under the cover with soft brush to remove dust or
contamination.
4.2 Testing
Using a certified gas with a concentration other than the one listed for this instrument
and sensor when conducting a calibration or calibration verification test (bump test) will
produce inaccurate readings. This means that higher levels of the gas being monitored
may be present and could result in overexposure and cause sickness or death.
