Warnings

This detector is added protection, not a substitute for prudent safety measures, for
where hydrogen gas may be present.

For large or highly-sensitive areas, SBS recommends installing additional sensors for
increased coverage area.

The hydrogen sensor does not provide protection from fires or hydrogen explosions.
The relay contacts are intended to be connected to a safety system that would enable
audible alarms, system shutdown and ventilation.

Ensure that installation complies completely with all relevant Local, State, Federal and
OSHA safety and health regulations.

If a sensor enters warning or alarm mode there is a risk of combustion or explosion. To
avoid injury, leave the area immediately.

The sensor is calibrated for operation in air. Tampering with the sensor or operation in
environments that are exposed to other types of gases can lead to inaccurate
readings, false alarms or permanent damage.

Please see troubleshooting guide for list of gases and compounds that may damage or
alter a sensor's performance.

Uncured silicone compounds or extended exposure to silicone off gassing can give
inaccurate readings or false alarms on a sensor.
