a Cautions
• Warning: Substitution of components may impair Intrinsic Safety.
• Before using the detector, refer to Sensor Poisons and Contaminants
.
• Warning: For safety reasons, this equipment must be operated and serviced by qualified personnel only. Read and understand the
user manual completely before operating or servicing.
• Do not use the detector if it is damaged. Inspect the detector before using. Look for cracks and/or missing parts.
• If the detector is damaged or parts are missing, contact BW Technologies by Honeywell
immediately.
• Only use sensor(s) that are specifically designed for the GasAlertMicroClip XT. Refer to Replacement Parts and Accessories
.
• Calibrate the detector before first-time use and then on a regular schedule, depending on use and sensor exposure to poisons and
contaminants. BW recommends calibrating at least once every 180 days (6 months).
• BW recommends to “bump test” the sensors before each day’s use to confirm their ability to respond to gas by exposing the
detector to a gas concentration that exceeds the alarm setpoints. Manually verify that the audible and visual alarms are activated.
Calibrate if the readings are not within the specified limits.
• BW recommends the combustible sensor be checked with a known concentration of calibration gas after any known exposure to
catalyst contaminants/poisons (sulfur compounds, silicon vapors, halogenated compounds, etc).
• The combustible sensor is factory calibrated to 50% LEL methane. If monitoring a different combustible gas in the % LEL range,
calibrate the sensor using the appropriate gas.
• Caution: High off-scale readings may indicate an explosive concentration.
• Only the combustible gas detection portion of this instrument has been assessed for performance by CSA International.
• Protect the combustible sensor from exposure to lead compounds, silicones, and chlorinated hydrocarbons.
• Sensor exposure to certain organic vapors (such as leaded gasoline and halogenated hydrocarbons) may temporarily inhibit sensor
performance. After exposure, a bump test or calibration is recommended.
