2-4. Safety information
Necessaryy information for explosion proof construction of Model GX-3R.
Overview
The GX-3R can measure up to 4 gases using 3 sensors.
The GX-3R measures the combustible gases (LEL), oxygen (O2), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and carbon
monoxide (CO).
This model displays measurement results on an LCD and issue gas alarms (via LED and buzzer) as
needed.
Gas sampling is by diffusion. The model does not have internal suction pumps.
Power sources
The GX-3R draws power from an integrated rechargeable Li-ion battery that is not user-replaceable.
A dedicated AC adapter is used for recharging the Li-ion battery.
