Definition of DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE This message indicates that improper handling may cause serious damage DANGER on life, health or assets. This message indicates that improper handling may cause serious damage WARNING on health or assets.
2. Important Notices on Safety 2-1. Danger cases Important Notices on Safety 2-1. Danger cases DANGER This is not an explosion-proof unit. Do not use the unit in place where gas over the lower explosive limit may exist.
2. Important Notices on Safety 2-2. Warning cases 2-2. Warning cases WARNING Power supply Before turning on the detector, always check that the voltage is properly applied. Do not use an unstable power supply because it may cause malfunctions. Need of grounding circuit Do not cut the grounding circuit or disconnect the wire from the grounding terminal.
A dust filter to be used varies depending on the gas to be detected. For more information on dust filters, please contact RIKEN KEIKI. Observe the operating restrictions to prevent condensation inside the tube. Condensation formed inside the tube causes clogging or gas adsorption, which may disturb accurate gas detection.

10. Product Specifications 10-3. Detection principle <New Ceramic Type> When a combustible gas burns on the surface of a highly active new ceramic oxidation catalyst in catalytic combustion, the new ceramic-type sensor measures resultant temperature changes by measuring the resistance changes in the heat-resistant alloy wire coil. The sensor consists of two elements: A detecting element having a heat-resistant alloy wire coil with an ultrafine particle (new ceramic) oxidation catalyst sintered on it together with a carrier and a temperature-compensating element with a mixture of gas-inert alumina and glass sintered on it.

10. Product Specifications 10-3. Detection principle <Semiconductor Type> Metal dioxide can measure gas concentration based on changes in the electric conductivity of semiconductor caused by gas adsorbed on its surface. RL: Load resistance, Vo: Output voltage VH: Heater voltage, Vs: Sensor voltage Special precautions for this principle This detector may be interfered by gases other than the gas to be detected and vapors.

10. Product Specifications 10-3. Detection principle <Galvanic Cell Type> By immersing precious metal and lead in electrolyte and connecting them with a lead wire, a battery can be made (galvanic cell). When oxygen passes through the barrier, deoxidizing reaction occurs at the precious metal electrode while oxidizing reaction occurs at the lead electrode.

10. Product Specifications 10-3. Detection principle <NDIR(Non-Dispersive Infrared Absorption) Type> IR light enters the cell and gas absorbs the beam, so the absorption rate and the gas concentration will correlate. The IR detector detects the IR light and will put it out as gas concentration. The band pass filter only lets specific wavelength that is absorbed by the target gas.

10. Product Specifications 10-3. Detection principle <Hot-wire Semiconductor> The hot-wire semiconductor type sensor detects a change in resistance of the platinum wire coil integrated in a metal oxide semiconductor whose resistance value changes by contact with a gas as gas concentration. This is a highly sensitive gas detection sensor suitable for low concentrations.
When the detector is used in a dusty environment, it is recommended that a dust filter should be attached to its outside. The filter is specified based on the gas to be detected. Please contact RIKEN KEIKI. vol% Gas concentration indicated in the unit of one-hundredth of the volume...
