WARNING
Before making safety-related measurements, check
the adjustment and adjust as needed, and check all
alarm elements. A bump test must be performed
according to the national regulations.
The instrument can be operated normally. If the warning
message does not disappear automatically during
operation, the instrument must be serviced after the end

The instrument is not ready to measure and requires
maintenance.
WARNING
Fractions of catalytic poisons in the measuring gas
(e.g. volatile silicone, sulphur, heavy metal compounds
or halogenated hydrocarbon) can damage the
CatEx sensor. If the CatEx sensor can no longer be
calibrated to the target concentration, the sensor must
be replaced.
In case of measurements in an oxygen-deficient
atmosphere (<8 Vol.-% O
2
) the CatEx sensor may
show incorrect displays; in this case, a reliable
measurement with a CatEx sensor is not possible.
In an oxygen enriched atmosphere (>22 Vol.-% O
2
),
the electrical operational safety cannot be guaranteed;
switch off instrument or leave work station.
