  • Page 2 Operating Precautions This instrument is a gas detector that detects combustible gases in the air and triggers a gas alarm. The gas detector is a safety unit, not an analyzer or densitometer which performs quantitative/qualitative analysis/measurement for gases. Please fully understand the following points before using it, so that it can be used properly. This detector may be interfered by gases and vapors other than the gas to be detected.
