Warnings and Cautions
A. Signal Words
The following signal words, as defined by ANSI Z535.4-1998, are used in the ToxiPro-
NGSG Operator’s Guide.
indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious
injury.
indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury.
indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which if not avoided, may result in moderate or minor
injury.
CAUTION
used without the safety alert symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
may result in property damage.
B. Warnings
ToxiPro personal, portable gas detectors have been designed for the detection of either oxygen
deficiencies or specific toxic gas accumulations. An alarm condition indicates the presence of a potentially life-
threatening hazard and should be taken very seriously.
In the event of an alarm condition it is important to follow established procedures. The safest
course of action is to immediately leave the affected area, and to return only after further testing determines that the
area is once again safe for entry. Failure to immediately leave the area may result in serious injury or death.
Use only Panasonic #CR2 in the ToxiPro.
The accuracy of ToxiPro instruments equipped with toxic gas sensors should be checked
periodically with known concentration calibration gas. Failure to check accuracy can lead to inaccurate and
potentially dangerous readings. The ToxiPro O
2
should be periodically calibrated in fresh air.
A sensor that cannot be calibrated or is found to be out of tolerance must be replaced
immediately. An instrument equipped with a toxic gas sensor that fails calibration may not be used until testing with
known concentration test gas determines that accuracy has been restored, and the instrument is once again fit for
use. Instruments equipped with an oxygen sensor that fail calibration may not be used until testing with fresh air
determines that accuracy has been restored and the instrument is once again fit for use.
Do not reset the calibration gas concentration setpoints in the ToxiPro unless the
concentrations of your calibration gas differ from the concentrations of the calibration gas that is normally supplied
by Honeywell Analytics for use in calibrating the ToxiPro.
Use of non-standard calibration gas and/or calibration kit components when calibrating the
ToxiPro can lead to dangerously inaccurate readings and may void the standard Honeywell Analytics warranty.
Honeywell Analytics offers calibration kits and long-lasting cylinders of test gas specifically developed for easy
calibration. Customers are strongly urged to use only Honeywell Analytics calibration materials when calibrating the
ToxiPro.
Substitution of components may impair intrinsic safety.
For safety reasons the ToxiPro must be operated by qualified personnel only. Read, understand
and follow the directions set forth in this reference manual before operating the ToxiPro.
The ToxiPro has been tested for intrinsic safety in Explosive Gas/AIR (max. 21.0% O
2
).
