• Be careful not to damage the LCD screen.
• Do not subject the gauge to a strong impact.
• Do not wash the sensor in water or solvents.
• If the surface of the humidity sensor becomes saturated with moisture allow the moisture to evaporate
fully before using the gauge to take measurements.
• To clean the plastic housing of the gauge use isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) and a soft dry cloth
such as those made to clean eyeglasses.
• Keep the gauge away from extreme heat. If the display is heated above 80°C (176°F) it may be
damaged. This can happen if the gauge is left in a vehicle parked in strong sunlight.
• The gauge is dustproof and waterproof equivalent to IP66 and should not be affected by dust and
moisture under normal conditions, however the gauge must not be submerged in liquids.
• Remove the batteries from the gauge and store them separately if the gauge is to remain unused for a
long period of time. This will prevent damage to the gauge in the event of malfunction of the batteries
Regular calibration checks over the life of the gauge are a requirement of quality management procedures,
e.g. ISO 9000, and other similar standards. For checks and certification contact Elcometer or your
Elcometer supplier.
