REGAL GAS DETECTOR

The REGAL Series 3000 Gas Detector (Chlorine or Sulfur

Dioxide) is a very important accessory item that should

be part of ALL Regal Gas Feed System installations.

The REGAL Series 3000 Gas Detector is a safety device

that is as important as a gas mask or self contained

breathing apparatus. It should not be deleted from the

system solely on the basis that current regulations in

a given geographical area do not specifically require

this item.

1. All software including design, appearance, algorithms and

source codes are copyrighted and owned by Chlorinators

Incorporated.

2. The entire contents of this manual MUST be read and understood

prior to installing and operating this equipment.

3. DO NOT discard this instruction manual upon completion of the

installation as this manual contains information essential to the

safe handling, operation and maintenance of this equipment.

4. Additional instruction manuals are available at nominal cost from

Chlorinators Incorporated.

5. Plastic pipe or tubing connector fittings may be broken or

damaged if tightened excessively. HAND TIGHTEN ONLY.

6. For maximum operation, the installation should be indoors so

that the minimum and maximum temperature limitations as listed

in the "TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS" section of this manual

are not exceeded.

7. This equipment is suitable for use only with the gases specified.

DO NOT USE THIS EQUIPMENT WITH OTHER GASES. Such

use can result in failures having hazardous consequences.

8. To insure proper and safe operation of this equipment, use only

REGAL parts. The use of non-REGAL parts can result in equip-

ment failures having hazardous consequences and voids the

REGAL warranty.

A properly installed and calibrated REGAL Series 3000

Gas Detector can save lives and protect equipment and

property from the effects of these gases by providing

warning of gas leaks AS SOON AS THEY OCCUR. Properly

installed, calibrated and maintained, REGAL Series

3000 Gas Detectors can accurately sense and display

the presence of free Chlorine or free Sulfur Dioxide in

the environment at levels below those mandated by

OSHA and throughout the working life of the unit.

9. Maintenance should be performed by qualified personnel familiar

with this type of equipment, such as Chlorinators Incorporated

themselves.

10. It is essential that all external wiring be done exactly as shown

on the diagrams depicted in this manual. Incorrect wiring or

improper grounding of this equipment WILL cause improper

operation and presents a safety hazard.

11. Field wiring MUST conform to national and local electrical

codes.

12. Disconnect power BEFORE removing the cover or servicing

this equipment.

13. ALWAYS make sure that the cover is in place and securely

fastened to prevent the entry of moisture, water or corrosive

gases and also to eliminate the potential for electrical shock.

14. Any equipment powered by AC line voltage presents a potential

shock hazard. Installation and servicing of this equipment

should only be attempted by qualified electronics technicians.

15. Damage to the circuit boards or internal components incurred

by drilling the enclosure for field wiring or connecting power

lines to low voltage signal terminals VOIDS the warranty.

16. Ground MUST be provided as part of the installation.
