CAUTION: The MAX-550E oxygen sensor is a sealed device containing a mild acid electrolyte, lead (Pb), and lead acetate. Lead and lead acetate are hazardous waste constituents and should be disposed of properly, or returned to Maxtec for proper disposal or recovery.
If you are reading a 50% oxygen mix and the barometric pressure drops from 1000mbar to 990mbar the reading will drop to: 50% x (990/1000) = 49.5%). Maxtec recommends that you re-calibrate after changing point-of-use elevation by more than 500 feet (150m).

A high alarm condition will remain until the the actual concentration is 0.1% lower than the high alarm setting. To help differentiate the level of severity, the Monitor provides three unique audible sequences. 866.4.Maxtec www.maxtec.com...
3.6 External Power Supply Operation To extend the life of the batteries a Maxtec approved external power supply can be purchased. Once connected to the unit, total power is supplied by the external power supply.
NOTE: Use only the Maxtec approved external power supply in Section 9.0 Spare Parts and accessories. NOTE: The power supply is not a battery charger. DO NOT use rechargeable batteries. 4.0 SENSOR REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT The MaxO ME is shipped with a new MAX-550E oxygen sensor.
If these steps do not correct the error, contact Maxtec for technical support. NOTE: Use only a Maxtec approved Max-550E sensor called out in Section 9.0 of the Spare Parts List. The Max550E sensor is equipped with an authentication chip to ensure the monitor is used with an approved sensor.
The cable can be removed and replaced by disconnecting the threaded locking shroud at the sensor and monitor ends of the cable. Use only the Maxtec approved cable called out in Section 9.0 of the Spare Parts List.
Sensors come supplied with a flow diverter. The flow diverter helps direct the gas in a T-adapter up to the sensor for analysis. The flow diverter should be only used with a flowing gas. When using the sensor in a non-flowing environment, remove the diverter tip. 866.4.Maxtec www.maxtec.com...
