INFICON Safety | 2 NOTICE Property damage from falling Place the calibration leak safely on a flat surface and protect it from falling. ► Remove the transport lock and store the calibration leak for at least 24 hours before use.
2 | Safety INFICON 2.1 Owner requirements The following notes are for companies or any person who is responsible for the safety and effective use of the product by the user, employees or third parties. Safety-conscious operation • Only operate the calibration leak if it is in a technically perfect condition and shows no signs of damage such as escaping solvents.
Page 9
INFICON Safety | 2 Personnel qualifications • Only instructed personnel are to be permitted to work with the calibration leak on the battery leak detector. The instructed personnel must have received training on calibration leaks. • Make sure that authorized personnel have read and understood the instruction manual and all other applicable documents.
2 | Safety INFICON 2.2 Duties of the operator • Read, observe, and follow the information in this manual and in the work instructions provided by the owner. This concerns in particular the safety and warning instructions. • Always observe the complete operating instructions for all work.
INFICON Safety | 2 2.3 Intended use The calibration leak is used to calibrate the battery leak detector. This usually takes place once a day. The transport lock (sight glass) is removed for initial useDescription [} 15]. After that, the functional duration is about 12 months.

3 | Scope of delivery, transport, storage INFICON Storage WARNING Danger when exceeding the expiration date The calibrated leak may become leaky at the end of its service life because the bonds are attacked by the solvent. Solvents may leak and there is a risk of fire and explosion.
If the calibrated leak is used to calibrate devices with internal ignition sources (e.g. valves, electric motors, Pirani vacuum gauges etc.), the ignition source may cause an explosion. ► Operate the calibrated leak only in the INFICON battery leak detector ELT3000. WARNING Risk of explosion due to escaping solvent Solvents can escape through a damaged membrane and lead to an explosive concentration in the air.

4 | Description INFICON WARNING Risk of injury from flammable solvents The solvent in the calibration leak is highly flammable. Overheating can damage the membrane, solvent can leak and ignite from an ignition source. ► Observe the manufacturer's safety data sheets and follow the applicable work instructions.
