● Depending on device configuration:
Replace the alkaline batteries or charge the battery – refer to page 41 to page 42 – after
each use, at the latest after the battery alarm has been triggered or after 2 weeks.
● Device calibration – page 34.
— In regular intervals, according to the used sensors and the operating conditions. For

.
— Before you carry out safety-related relevant measurements, the zero point and sensitivity of
the devices should be tested in accordance with national regulations.
● Inspection by suitably qualified persons – every year.
— The inspection intervals must be established in each individual case and shortened if
necessary, depending on technical safety considerations, engineering conditions and the
technical requirements of the equipment.
— We recommend that a service agreement be concluded with Dräger Safety and that repairs
also be carried out by them.
● Replace the sensors, page 45 – if necessary, when it is not possible to calibrate the
sensors anymore.
