Page 6: Safety
Precautionary Safety Measures to Adopt Bump Test The frequency of the bump test is often regulated by national or company standards; however, as a general rule, performing a bump test before each use is the best safety practice and is therefore recommended by Seitron. The Canadian Standards Association (CSA) requires the bump test procedure for the LEL sensor to be performed before daily use, using calibration gas concentrations between 25% and 50% LEL. The instrument must be recalibrated if, during a bump test, the reading does not fall between 100% and 120% of the expected value for the gas.
Page 7 0.5% due to the displacement of oxygen by water vapor in the air. The oxygen sensor is equipped with a special filter that reduces the effects of humidity variations on oxygen readings. Its effect is not immediate but gradually influences oxygen readings over several hours. Temperature Variations The device has a built-in temperature compensation function. However, if the temperature changes rapidly, the sensor reading may vary. To minimize the effect, zero the device at the working temperature. If the device is used near its upper or lower operating temperature limit, Seitron recommends performing auto-zeroing or turning the device off and on in that environment. Special Conditions for Safe Use • In the event of an overrange condition for the flammable gas sensor, the device will enter Alarm Lock status, which must be reset in a fresh air environment. To reset this alarm, turn the device off and back on after moving to fresh air. Keep the device in fresh air until the LEL or CH4 readings have stabilized, then follow the instructions for Fresh Air Setup and Zero Calibration contained in this manual.
Page 8 • The device is equipped with an anti-static coating on the LCD display to minimize the risk of ignition due to electrostatic discharge. Periodic inspection of this coating is necessary to ensure it is free from degradation, delamination, abrasions, or other surface deformations. • Care should be taken to avoid exposure to excessive heat, aggressive chemicals or solvents, sharp edges, and abrasive surfaces. Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. • The products may contain materials whose transportation is regulated under national and international dangerous goods regulations. Return the product in accordance with the appropriate dangerous goods regulations. Contact the goods carrier for further instructions.
