1.0 Introduction
The RECON-IS Series instruments are designed to detect toxic gases and oxygen concentrations in ambient air and has been
approved to be used in hazardous locations.
Their one button operation, low power consumption and small size makes them ideal for use in many situations like, oil field,
chemical plant and the mining industry as well as confined space entry, general construction and environmental industries.

1.1 Unpack
Unpack the RECON-IS and examine it for shipping damage. If such damage is observed, notify both ENMET customer
service personnel and the commercial carrier involved immediately.
1.2 Check Order
Check, the contents of the shipment against the purchase order. Verify that the RECON-IS is received as ordered. Each
RECON-IS is labeled with its target gas.
If there are accessories on the order, ascertain that they are present. Check the
contents of calibration kits. Notify ENMET customer service personnel of any discrepancy immediately.
1.3 Safety Information
Please read the following information carefully before using the detector.
 Do not use a damaged gas detector.
 Do not open the RECON-IS in a possible explosive working environment.
 Caution should be used if the background oxygen concentration is greater then 20.9% by volume since there is a
greater risk of ignition of a combustible gas if present. Oxygen concentration in the air exceeding 20.9%vol could
reduce the anti-explosion feature of the detector.
 ENMET recommends that a "Bump Test" be performed to confirm sensor responds and to ensure that the audio, visual
and vibration alarms are working properly.
