Why Consilium PG11 optics require frequent cleaning?
If you find that the Consilium Gas Detectors optics require frequent cleaning, ensure the detector is mounted in the correct orientation as specified in the manual. Mounting it vertically can cause dust and water to accumulate on the optics.
How to fix unstable detector reading for Consilium PG11?
To address an unstable reading on your Consilium Gas Detector, verify that the detector has sufficient local Earthing.
