This analyzer is not designed to be used for continuous measurements.
Before using the analyzer verify the condition of the various parts of the ana-
lyzer, such as the probe, the ambient air conditions, the condensate separa-
tor, star filter and the connectors for damage and/or blockages.
When starting up the analyzer it will take between 1 – 3 minutes to set to zero
depending on the condition of the sensors and of ambient.
The minimum zeroing time of the analyzer to achieve correct measurement
values can be expected by 1.5 minutes.
Exposure to acids; aggressive gases such as sulphur; vapours such as thin-
ners, gasoline, alcohol and paint, etc. can damage, reduce the life of, or de-
stroy the sensors.
The life of the sensors depends on how they are used, maintained and treated.

tions (for example a periodical examination of the analyzer). Please obtain the
