1 Device Cleaning
Cleaning of the device is recommended following environmental exposure, to ensure optimal performance.
1.1 Routine Cleaning
Clean the exterior of the device regularly using only a damp cloth. Do not use cleaning agents, as many contain silicone or
alcohol, which can damage the sensors.
1.2 Dust and Dirt Exposure
Use a dry, soft bristled brush to remove any dust or dirt that has accumulated on the device, especially at the sensor
openings. If there is a buildup of dust or dirt particles remaining in the sensor area after brushing, use a vacuum to remove
remaining particles, but maintain at least a 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) distance from the gas detector.
1.3 Chemical Exposure
If the device is likely to come into contact with aggressive substances, for example acidic liquids or gases that may attack
metals or solvents that may affect polymeric materials, then it is the responsibility of the user to take suitable precautions
that prevent the device from being adversely affected thus ensuring that the type of protection is not compromised.
1.4 Water Exposure
If the device is exposed to water, turn the device sensor side down and gently shake water off the sensor area. Any
remaining water can be removed with a clean dry cloth. In the event that the device is immersed in water, allow the sensor
inlets time to dry before retesting and returning to service. Drying time is dependent upon humidity conditions and the
duration of immersion.
