DANGER
About explosion-proof
Do not modify or change the circuit or structure, etc.
When using the gas detector in a hazardous area, take the following countermeasures for
preventing dangers resulting from electrostatic charges.
(1) Wear anti-static clothes and conductive shoes (anti-static work shoes).
(2) For indoor use, use the gas detector while standing on a conductive work floor (with a
leakage resistance of 10 M
Ω
or less).
The specifications of the gas detector are as follows:
6.0 VDC (Toshiba LR6)
Ambient temperature: -20 to 50ºC
About use
While conducting measurement in a manhole or confined space, do not lean over or look into
the manhole or closed space. It may lead to dangers because oxygen-deficient air or other
gases may blow out.
High-concentration
(100%
LEL
or higher) gases may be discharged from the gas exhausting
outlet. Never use fire near the gas detector.
