Operating Precautions This detector 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.

4 How to Use 4-5. Installation procedure NOTE ・Our company-specified grease : BARRIERTA JFE 552 (manufactured by NOK KLUBER) If you can not prepare the specified grease, use one that meets the following requirements. 1. Material does not harden due to deterioration 2.
6 Operations and Functions 6-1. Gas alarm activation Operations and Functions 6-1. Gas alarm activation Gas alarm: Activated when the concentration of detected gas reaches or exceeds the alarm setpoint value. <<Auto-Reset>> NOTE The alarm setpoint is factory-set. Although the alarm delay time (standard: 2 seconds) works in the detector to prevent a false activation, it can be cancelled if not needed.
6 Operations and Functions 6-2. Fault alarm activation <Response to Gas Alarm> A gas concentration value exceeds the alarm setpoint When a gas alarm is triggered, take actions in accordance with your management rules of gas alarm. Normally, take the following actions. ...
7 Maintenance 7-1. Maintenance intervals and items Maintenance This is an important instrument for the purpose of safety. To maintain the performance of the detector and improve the reliability of safety, perform a regular maintenance. 7-1. Maintenance intervals and items ...

7 Maintenance 7-1. Maintenance intervals and items Main Services Power Supply Checks the power supply voltage. Check Verifies that the power lamp lights up. (Verifies that relevant points can be identified on the system.) (When a UPS (uninterruptible power system) is used, checks the operation with the UPS (uninterruptible power system).) Concentration Verifies that the concentration display value is zero by using the zero gas.
9 Troubleshooting 9 Troubleshooting Troubleshooting The troubleshooting does not explain the causes of all the malfunctions which occur on the detector. This simply helps to find the causes of malfunctions which frequently occur. If the detector shows a symptom which is not explained in this manual, or still has malfunctions even though remedial actions are taken, please contact our overseas sales department or local representatives.
