User manual 400GD The measurement menu is being displayed after warmup. The analyser is ready to measure. 4.4. Make settings on the basic unit The menu structure is dynamic. The menu structure changes depending on the inserted interchangeable sensor. In the following, only settings are shown that can be carried out on the basic unit without am inserted interchangeable sensor.
User manual 400GD The measurement is not protocolled. ► Choose "QR Code". ► Press "OK". ► Choose the desired option. ► Press “OK”. The option is saved. Setting language ► Choose “Language”. ► Press “OK”. ► Choose the desired option.
User manual 400GD ► Select the desired brightness level. The desired brightness level is saved. Setting volume ► Choose “Volume”. ► Press “OK”. ► Select the desired volume level. The desired volume is saved. Setting Off time ► Choose “Off time”.
User manual 400GD 4.5. Switching off the analyser There are two possibilities to switch off the analyser. Select „Off“. Press „OK“. The analyser switches off. Alternatively, you can switch off the analyser as follows: Press and hold the OK key for at least 3 seconds.
User manual 400GD Measuring DANGER Danger when used improperly Deadly accidents can be the result if the rules are not obeyed. The analyser may only be used for its intended purpose. DANGER Explosion danger in EX zones There is a possibility of explosion in an EX-zone.
User manual 400GD Starting measurement DANGER Risk due to improper use Fatal accidents may occur if the measurement rules are disregarded. ► Only use the measuring device to locate gas leaks in the installation area. After switching on, the LED on the interchangeable sensor flashes.
User manual 400GD Configuring measurement For settings that can be made on the basic unit ☞ see 4.4 Make settings on the basic unit, Page 14. In the following, only sensor-specific settings are described. Setting Zeropoint ► Select „Set Zero“.
User manual 400GD 5.3. Measuring with interchangeable sensor RM400 The interchangeable sensor RM400 is used for leak detection on flue gas pipes. The interchangeable sensor RM400 functions on the basis of a conductive sensor surface. Starting measurement DANGER Risk due to improper use Fatal accidents may occur if the measurement rules are disregarded.
User manual 400GD ► Guide slowly the interchangeable sensor along the areas to be tested. If there is a leakage, the measured value changes. The measurement process is displayed graphically. Optical and acoustic alarm signals indicate gas leakage.
User manual 400GD Configuring measurement For settings that can be made on the basic unit ☞ see 4.4.Make settings on the basic unit, S.14 In the following, only sensor-specific settings are described. Selecting measured values With the interchangeable sensor HM400, it is possible to display all measured values on the display.
User manual 400GD The following setting are possible: Criterion Adjustable units Humidity % (relative), g/m (absolut) Dew point ° C, ° F Air pressure abs. hPa, inHG, mmHG, mmH Temperature ° C, ° F 5.5. Measuring with interchangeable sensor IR400 The interchangeable sensor IR400 is used for non-contact temperature measurement.
User manual 400GD The flashing frequency of the red LED in the sensor foot increases with a measurement above the set alarm threshold. Configuring measurement For settings that can be made on the basic unit ☞ see 4.4.Make settings on the basic unit, S.14 In the following, only sensor-specific settings are described.
User manual 400GD ► Select “Unit”. ► Press “OK”. The unit is changing. 5.6. Measuring with interchangeable sensor RF400 The interchangeable sensor RF400 is used for leak detection on air conditioners. NOTE Use of test leaks • The sensor must touch the exit of the test leak.
User manual 400GD Optical and acoustic alarm signals indicate gas leakage. The flashing frequency of the red LED in the sensor foot increases with the increase of the measured gas concentration. Configuring measurement For settings that can be made on the basic unit ☞...
Refrigerants that are not marked are referenced and calibrated To select all refrigerants, you need the following firmware: • For interchangeable sensor RF400 from V1.00.15 • For basic unit 400GD from V1.00.33 Setting alarm threshold Select „Alarm“. ► Press „OK“.
User manual 400GD After the warm-up, the analyser automatically switches to the measuring mode The measurement starts. ► Slowly guide the sensor to the location to be tested. The measurement process is displayed graphically. Visual and audible alarms indicate the escape of CO (carbon monoxide).
User manual 400GD Setting alarm threshold ► Select „Alarm“. ► Press „OK“. ► Set the desired alarm threshold. ► Press „OK“. The alarm threshold is saved. NOTE Pay attention to the unit for which you set an alarm threshold for the interchangeable sensor CO400.
User manual 400GD 5.8. Measuring with interchangeable sensor CD400 The interchangeable sensor CD400 is used for monitoring the CO -con- centration in the ambient air. Starting measurement After switching on, the LED on the interchangeable sensor flashes. In the Display "CD400" appears.
User manual 400GD Setting Zeropoint When taking a zero point, the measured CO -value is set to 400ppm. When the analyser is switched on, no new zero point is taken. You can set a new zero, if it no longer 400ppm (350...500ppm) is displayed in fresh air due to ageing or environmental conditions.
User manual 400GD 5.9. Transporting measurement protocol You can create a measurement protocol of the current measurement using the QR code export. To be transmitted: • sensor name • sensor serial number • min. / max. Values • duration of measurement The following section describes how to export a measurement protocol using the IR400 interchangeable sensor as example.
Maintenance and care 6.1. Maintenance For accurate reading we suggest an annual service and calibration of the an- alyser at a local authorized service location (www.mru.eu). 6.2. Care This is a low maintenance analyser: Charge the battery if the analyser will not be used for a longer period, then recharge the batteries every 6 months.
