Operating Precautions
This detector is a gas detector that detects combustible gases in the air and triggers a gas alarm.
The gas detector is a safety unit, not an analyzer or densitometer which performs quantitative/qualitative
analysis/measurement for gases.
Please fully understand the following points before using it, so that it can be used properly.
1. This detector may be interfered by gases and vapors other than the gas to be detected.
Please note that the alarm may be triggered by interference. In addition, it may be fluctuated by
environmental (temperature, humidity, etc.) changes in the installation site.
2. The alarm must be set within a range where the performance of the detector can be ensured.
In facilities compliant with the High Pressure Gas Safety Act, an alarm setting below our standard
alarm setpoint may trigger a false alarm.
3. This is a safety unit, not a control unit.
The alarm contact output of the detector must be used for an external alarm lamp/buzzer, while the
alarm signal output must be used for an indicator or external recorder.
If these outputs are used to control other units, we shall not be responsible for any malfunctions.
4. The gas sensing part of the gas detection sensor installed in this detector is made of metal porous
sintered alloy permeated with an oxidation catalyst.
If silicon or sulfide compounds are accumulated on the surface of porous sintered alloy, the area of the
gas sensing part becomes smaller, which may results in serious deterioration of its sensitivity.
For safety reasons, do not use the detector under the presence of silicon or sulfide compounds even
though their amount is very small.
5. For maintenance of the detector, it must go through a regular maintenance, including replacement and
adjustment of the regular replacement parts as specified in the operating manual. In addition, because
this is a safety unit, it is recommended that a regular maintenance and a gas calibration are performed
every six months in accordance with the regulations.
