WARNING
Risk of gas measurement failure and device fail-
ure
If the water trap is used longer than intended, the
diaphragm may become brittle and allow water
and bacteria to enter the measurement system.
Such contamination affects the gas measure-
ment which may fail as a result.
The water trap must be replaced after a serv-
ice life of four weeks.
