(Sample draw) through a sensor. The Electrochemical sensor is manufactured by Interscan. Electrochemical means that it produces an electrical current proportional to the level of gas passing through. The large size of the Interscan sensors results in larger reactive surface area which yields greater sensitivity.

Interscan’s Sensor Express® - Electronic Calibration Service Interscan’s Sensor Express® program streamlines downtime by sending you pre- calibrated sensors on a regular basis per your needs, without the burden of returning sensors to our factory for re-certification. The sensors are shipped to you either two(2), three(3), or four(4) times per year based upon factory recommendation.
The analyzer is now calibrated and set up for operation. Note: If you require additional information on Calibration Procedures, please contact the Service Department at 1-800-458-6153 ext. 121, or E-mail service@gasdetection.com Doc 120-00009 4000 Series Analog Manual Revision: B Page 11 of 24 901-0014 Rev A...
Battery Charging and Replacement All models of the 4000 Series analyzers use two “C” size alkaline batteries. These are located on the hinged door, right side (fig.4 pg.8). Polarity is marked on the door over the battery holder.
There are three types of gas fittings used depending on the age of the original sensor and the gas being measured. Doc 120-00009 4000 Series Analog Manual Revision: B Page 13 of 24 901-0014 Rev A...

INTERSCAN CORPORATION warrants sensors of its manufacture to be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of six months from date of shipment.
“RETURN MATERIAL AUTHORIZATION NUMBER” issued by the INTERSCAN Service Department upon request. Below is the link to the RMA online form: http://www.gasdetection.com/contact-interscan/rma-request/ This is done primarily to encourage the user to contact the factory directly. The reason for this is, a high percentage of service problems are resolved over the telephone or e-mail, possibly avoiding the need to return the analyzer or part.
Please note that the response values given are not absolute, and may vary depending on sensor formulation. The special case of how alcohols affect electrochemical sensors is discussed in Interscan's Interfering Gas Data article. (www.gasdetection.com/the-tech-center/instrument-sensor- performance/interfering-gas-data) For further information on the effects of interfering gases, please contact the factory.
