EXPLOSION HAZARD!
TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF AN EXPLOSION;
MONITORING OF FLAMMABLE GASES IN EXPLOSIVE
CONCENTRATIONS MUST NEVER BE ATTEMPTED.
Never operate the Monitor in potentially explosive
environments.
When monitoring potentially flammable or toxic gases it is essential
that:
•
The instrument itself is placed in a well-ventilated area outside the
potentially hazardous zone.
•
A sufficiently long tube is connected to the air-outlet on the back
panel so that the sampled gas is carried away to the open air or to
an extraction and/or filtration unit.
Environmental Conditions for transport and storage:
Temperature:
-25 to +55ºC
Relative Humidity:
0 to 80% RH
Atmospheric Pressure:
800 to 1060 hPa
Warnings!
•
Avoid water condensation in the instrument.
•
Switch off all equipment before connecting or disconnecting their
digital interface. Failure to do so could damage the equipment.
•
Do not position the equipment in a way preventing the ability to
unplug the cable on the back-panel.
•
Whenever it is likely that correct function or operating safety of the
apparatus has been impaired, the apparatus must be made
inoperative and secured against unintended operation.
•
Any adjustment, maintenance and repair of the open apparatus
under voltage must be avoided as far as possible and, if
unavoidable, must be carried out only by trained personnel.
