Quick-Start Guide
MGC-S Multi Gas Clip Simple
READ FIRST BEFORE OPERATION
The Multi Gas Clip Simple is a personal safety device designed to detect the
presence of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), carbon monoxide (CO), oxygen (O2) and
combustible gases (LEL). Before operation, ensure that you have been properly
trained on the use of the detector and the appropriate actions to take in the
event of an alarm condition.
Display Components
| Icon | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Alarm Condition |
| 2 | Life Remaining |
| 3 | Calibration/Test Mode |
| 4 | Battery Indicator |
| 5 | Gas Readings |
| 6 | Gas Identifiers |
When a Gas Reading (5) exceeds its alarm threshold, the detector will go into
visual, vibrating and audible alarm. On the display, the icon will appear
beside the Alarm Condition (1) and the associated Gas Identifier (6) will
flash off and on continuously.
Warning – Users must familiarize themselves with the icons in both alarm
and non-alarm states.
Warning – If the display is missing icons, or cannot be clearly read,
discontinue use and contact Gas Clip Technologies.
Warning – The IR LEL sensor will not detect hydrogen (H2) or acetylene
(C2H2) gases however, due to their cross-sensitive nature, the CO sensor will
go into alarm well below 10% LEL.
Factory Default Alarms
| Sensor | LOW | HIGH | TWA | STEL |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| H2S | 10 ppm | 15 ppm | 10 ppm | 15 ppm |
| CO | 35 ppm | 200 ppm | 35 ppm | 50 ppm |
| O2 | 19.50% | 23.50% | ||
| LEL | 10% | 20% |
Turning On the Detector
Once activated, the detector will run continuously for 24 months. To activate,
press and briefly hold down the power/menu button. The detector will begin to
display Gas Readings (5) immediately. Each Gas Identifier (6) will show a
chasing “0” for the Gas Reading (5) while it is stabilizing and self-testing.
Once all Gas Identifiers (6) have completed the warm up and stabilization
sequence, <65 seconds, the detector is ready to detect all applicable gases.
Display will show:
Warning – Before each use, check that all sensor and alarm ports are clear of any debris or obstructions.

ZERO”. Wait a few seconds, then press the button briefly when display shows
“APPLY GAS”. Detector has been successfully auto
zeroed.
Warning – DO NOT auto zero the detector in a combustible atmosphere.
Warning – DO NOT auto zero in temperatures above 104°F (40°C) or below
32°F (0°C).
Battery Information
This detector is designed so that the battery won’t need charging or replacing
during the life of the detector.
Detector Life Countdown
Once activated, the detector will display 24 months of life remaining.
Detector will continue to countdown and display months remaining until 30 days
remain. Display will then show days remaining until end of life.
