This instrument should only be used by qualified or competent persons with suitable knowledge of the hazards
relating to the gases contained within equipment or in the local environment.

Quality Assurance

GasCheck G instruments are manufactured by ION Science Inc within an ISO 9001:2015 compliant quality system,
which ensures that the equipment supplied to our customers has been designed and assembled reproducibly,
and from traceable components.

Responsibility of use

Many gases are hazardous and can cause explosion, poisoning and corrosion resulting in damage to property and
life. It is the responsibility of the person using this instrument to ensure it is being used in accordance with this
manual and that the instrument is functioning correctly before use.
The GasCheck G can detect a large range of gases but some gases are more difficult to detect.
It is the responsibility of the user to ensure the GasCheck G instrument has the sensitivity to detect the required
gas before reaching potentially dangerous levels.
Inadequate performance of the gas detection equipment described in this manual may not necessarily be self-evident
and consequently equipment must be regularly inspected and maintained. Ion Science recommends that personnel
responsible for equipment use institute a regime of regular checks to ensure it performs within calibration limits, and
that a record be maintained which logs calibration check data. The equipment should be used in accordance with this
manual, and in compliance with local safety standards.

Disposal

Disposal of GasCheck G, its components and any used batteries shall be in accordance with local and national
safety and environmental requirements. This includes the European WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment) directive. Ion Science Ltd offers a 'take-back' service. Please contact ION Science Inc for more
information.

Calibration Facility

Ion Science Ltd offers a calibration service including the issue of a traceable certificate valid for 12 months. A
GasCheck G Calibration Kit offers a means of checking and calibrating the instruments against a known reference,
however ION Science Inc strongly recommend the instrument is returned to an approved service center on an
annual basis for general maintenance and calibration.
