Safety Information - Honeywell BW-Clip4 Quick Start Manual

Safety Information

Four-gas detector, 24-month runtime
Use the detector only as specified in this Quick Start Guide and the
Operator Manual, otherwise the protection provided by the detector
may be impaired.
Read the following cautions before using the detector.
WARNING
• The BW Clip4 will not detect some combustible gases like Hydrogen
or Acetylene. For detectable combustible gases, see
Combustible Gases
of these hazards, please consult Honeywell Analytics to determine
the best solution.
• Substitution of components may impair Intrinsic Safety.
• Honeywell Analytics recommends performing a bump test prior to each
day's use to confirm sensor response and alarm activation by exposing
the detector to a concentration of target gas that exceeds the low alarm
set point. Honeywell Analytics also recommends performing a bump test
if the detector has been subjected to physical impact, liquid immersion,
an Over Limit alarm event, custody changes, or anytime the detectors
performance is in doubt.
• Special Condition of Safe Use: The BW Clip4 is provided with anti-static
coating over the LCD window to minimize risk of ignition due to electro-
static discharge. Periodic inspection of this coating is required to en-
sure no degradation, delamination, abrasions or other deformities to this
surface. Care must be taken to avoid exposure to excessive heat, harsh
chemicals or solvents, sharp edges and abrasive surfaces. Clean only
with a damp cloth.
• The flammable sensor in BW Clip4 is infrared type sensor. The spe-
cial care is needed: keep flammable sensor out of contact with aggres-
sive substances e.g. acidic environments which can react with metals,
as well as solvents which may affect polymeric materials. If BW Clip4's
flammable sensor is suspected to be damaged by aggressive substances,
please perform Bump Test and Calibration per this manual.
