▲ Old and new batteries or batteries from different manufacturers cannot be mixed.

Attentions :
To ensure maximum safety and performance, please read and follow the items and conditions listed below.

• The air intake of the sensor must be kept clean. Blocking the sensor’s air intake may result in readings that are lower than the actual gas concentration .

• It is strictly forbidden to use compressed air to clean the air inlet of the sensor to avoid
  damage to the sensor.

• Catalytic Principle Flammable Gas Sensor and Infrared Principle Sensor can only accurately monitor designated gases. It should be noted, however, that the catalytic principle flammable sensor is not specific to a particular gas and will be able to react to other flammable gases.

• If the instrument is subject to physical impact or high pollution, the calibration cycle needs to be shortened.

• The sensitivity of flammable gas sensors will be affected by high concentrations of sulfides, halogen compounds, silicon-containing compounds, and gases containing “mercury”  and “lead”, steam, and high temperature organic acid gases. Avoid using them in environments containing the above chemicals. The instrument, if necessary, must be tested and calibrated after use to avoid affecting the accuracy of the instrument.

• The instrument is strictly prohibited from being used in a high concentration of flammable gas for a long time to avoid damage to the flammable sensor. If it is necessary, the instrument should be tested and calibrated after use to avoid affecting the accuracy of the instrument.
  If the flammable sensor is damaged, it needs to be replaced with a new one. The new sensor can only be reused after it has been calibrated.

• Do not use organic solvents, soap or silicon-containing solutions to clean the instrument to avoid damaging the sensor.

• When sampling with a sampling tube, do not use a sampling tube made of silicone material or other sampling tubes that are not certified by the special source.

• A sudden change in air pressure or a blocked air circuit may cause temporary fluctuations in the instrument’s oxygen readings.

• Large changes in pressure will result in incorrect readings. If the measured gas pressure is greater than 10% of the atmospheric pressure, it will affect the instrument reading and even damage the sensor. The instrument should be re-calibrated and the measured gas should be depressurized.

• It is forbidden to artificially use the gas shock sensor that exceeds the range of the instrument. If the over-range high-concentration gas impact occurs, the instrument must be re-calibrated.

• When replacing any one of the sensors, the instrument needs to be calibrated.

• Standard gas should be selected from the manufacturer or the nationally qualified enterprise.

• The calibration should be in a well ventilated environment to avoid contamination.

• It is strictly forbidden to calibrate the instrument under the condition of insuffcient power supply.

• Do not use the instrument in an oxygen-rich environment.

• It is strictly forbidden to replace the components or structures that affect the explosion-proof performance at will, so as not to affect the explosion-proof performance.

• It is forbidden to expose the instrument to high concentration acid and alkali gas to avoid damage to the sensor.

• It is strictly forbidden for users to repair or replace parts without authorization.

• A sudden change in temperature can cause the output signal of the infrared sensor to be abnormal.
  After the transient is removed, the instrument will resume normal operation and the ambient temperature change rate should be limited to 2 ° C / min.

• If the gas sample flow rate changes excessively, it will also cause the infrared sensor output signal to be abnormal. After the transients are removed, the instrument will resume  normal operation and the gas flow rate should be kept below 0.6 L/min.

• It is strictly forbidden to expose the infrared sensor to corrosive gas such as hydrogen sulfide. It is strictly forbidden to cause condensation inside the sensor.

• Condensation phenomenon inside sensor is strictly prohibited.

Calibration Warning:

• Gas detection equipment is a safe life-saving measuring instrument. To ensure metering accuracy, toxic and catalytic principles flammable gas sensors should be calibrated at least once every six months, while infrared sensors should be calibrated once a year.
• The gas detector needs to be carefully tested or calibrated after an alarm occurs.
• This instrument has the function of recording and querying the calibration date. Please check it frequently. Not only do users need to understand the parameters of the  instrument, but they also need to understand the meaning of the test data obtained.

Note:
1. Sensor should be calibrated in the dry air with 20.9% of oxygen and no impurities.
2. The zero point calibration should be done before the span calibration.

12.2 Span Calibration
GD400 draws in air at a flow rate of between450mL/min -650mL/min When calibration, the device must be connected to a standard gas cylinder through a T-shaped calibration tube
(three-way connector), and the other end is connected to a flow meter. During ventilation calibration, ensure that the evacuation of the flow meter is above l00mL/min.

● Press [N/-] to select the gas,then press [Y/+] to enter selected gas calibration screen.

There is a calibrate in the span calibration sub-interface, and the right side is the calibration setting value. The upper part displays the current gas type, real-time concentration value, unit and ADC value.
The span calibration procedure is as follows (the following example assumes a standard gas of 550 ppm CO):

• After the detector is turned on and enters the detection interface, connect the standard gas of known concentration to the gas inlet of the detector through the PTFE tube.
• Enter the span calibration interface, press the [N/-] key to select the gas channel, and press the [Y/+] key to enter the “span Calibration ” submenu.
• Press – the [Y/+] key to enter the parameter setting mode, and modify the value (set value 550) on the right to the standard gas concentration used.
• Open the standard gas valve, and input the target CO standard gas to the detector at a flow rate of 500mL/min (ml/min), until the real-time concentration displayed by the detector (the upper middle) is basically stable (about 1-3 minutes, different sensors the stabilization time is different), press the button, the detector will enter the 30-second countdown, after the countdown, the detector will have a buzzer sound, and the screen will show succeed to tell you the span calibration is completed.

Note：

1. During the calibration countdown period, you can press the [Y /+] key to terminate the span calibration.
2. Before the span calibration, please confirm that the standard gas tube has been well connected. Only starts the span calibration after the displayed value is stable, otherwise the reading will be inaccurate.

Evaluation using the short-term exposure tolerable concentration (PC-STEL) standard
The test result is the 15min time-weighted average concentration of hazardous substances measured at the highest concentration of hazardous substances at the operation site. The calculation method of the 15min time-weighted average concentration is:
(1) When the sampling time is 15min, the time-weighted average concentration of 15min is the test result of the sample, mg/m3.
(2) When the sampling time is less than 15min, when sampling more than once, calculate as follows: CSTEL=(C1T1+C2T2+….CnTn)/15 In the formula: CSTEL-15min time-weighted average concentration, mg/m3; C1, C2, Cn-measured concentration of harmful substances in the air, mg/m3; T1, T2, Tn – the working time of workers at the corresponding concentration of harmful substances, min.
The time-weighted average allowable concentration (PC-TWA) standard was used to evaluate
The test result is the 8-hour time-weighted average concentration of occupational disease hazard factors in the workplace. The 8-hour time-weighted average concentration is calculated as follows: CTWA=(C1T1+C2T2+. …CnTn)/8 In the formula: CTWA – 8h time-weighted average concentration of harmful substances in the air, mg/m3; C1, C2, Cn-measured concentration of harmful substances in the air, mg/m3; T1, T2, Tn – the working time of workers under the corresponding concentration of harmful substances, hour Use the maximum overrun multiple to evaluate Many substances with PC-TWA have not yet formulated PC-STEL. For dust and chemicals without PC-STEL, the upper drift limit should be controlled even if their 8h TWA does not exceed PC-TWA. Therefore, the over-limit multiple can be used to control the excessive fluctuation of its short-time exposure level. The concentration corresponding to the exceeding multiple is the short-term exposure concentration, and the sampling and detection methods are the same as those of PC-STEL. For
chemically harmful factors for which PC-STEL is not formulated, the concentration of any short-term (15min) exposure should not exceed the multiple of PC-TWA under the condition of the 8h time-weighted average allowable concentration.
Calculation of overrun multiples: Overrun multiple = C15min/PC-TWA In the formula: C15min—measured short-term harmful substance concentration in the air, mg/m3;PC-TWA—The time-weighted average allowable concentration of the hazardous substance.

Note:

1. The low alarm value can’t be higher than the high alarm value.
2. The low alarm value or high alarm value can’t be higher than measure range.
3. There is no STEL value and TWA value for oxygen and combustible gas.
