GEM5000
SERVICE
The GEM5000 gas analyser should be regularly serviced to ensure correct and accurate operation. Geotech
recommends a service and recalibration every 6 months.
The GEM5000 range is ATEX certified for use in potentially explosive areas. As such it should be serviced only by
qualified engineers. Failure to observe this will result in the warranty becoming invalid and could invalidate the
ATEX certification.
If the GEM5000 is serviced by unqualified engineers the ATEX certification may be invalidated and
the instrument may be unsafe for use in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
User serviceable parts:
There are no user serviceable parts inside the instrument.
The following parts can be user serviced:
In-line water
filter
This should be regularly inspected for obstructions, moisture or damage and changed if
needed. The instrument should never be operated without the in-line water filter as this
may result in water entering the instrument.
Sample tubing
Always ensure that sample tubes are not contaminated or damaged.
Gas port
connectors
Periodically check that the O-rings on the gas port connectors are not damaged. A damaged
O-ring can let air into the sample gas and result in incorrect readings. If the O-ring is
damaged the complete gas port connector should be replaced.
H2S filter
material
When the filter material changes colour to a light grey colour the filter should be replaced.
