3.8 Initial Gas Testing

EX-6175

units are factory calibrated as detailed on the calibration certificate supplied with the instrument. However, it is

always advisable after installation to confirm that the instrument reads zero with no gas present and responds accurately when
presented with an appropriate concentration of the target gas.

The

EX-6175

display becomes operational within 60 seconds however; the sensor should be allowed to stabilize for the period

of five to ten minutes before attempting to check the zero setting and gas response.

Refer to Figure 9 showing the arrangement for applying the test gas to the

EX-6175

.

1.

Before application of the test gas, check that the

EX-6175

reads zero with no known gas present in the atmosphere. If

necessary, carry out adjustment of the zero setting as described in section 5.1.1

2.

Apply the test gas and allow a sufficient time for the sample to reach the gas detector and for the sensor response to
stabilize.

Carrying out the above procedure, and comparing the results with previous readings, reference the certificate of calibration, will
confirm that the

EX-6175

is functioning correctly, both physically and electrically. There is therefore no requirement for any

further maintenance other than to clean the display window as required.

In the unlikely event that the response has changed from the previous readings, recalibrate the unit. See Section 5.1.1 and 5.1.2.
