Statements
Responsibility for Use
The Cub detects a pre-selected range of gases which are potentially dangerous from both a poisoning
and/or an explosive perspective. The Cub has adjustable and selectable features allowing the detector to be
used in a pre-selected way. Ion Science Ltd can accept no responsibility for the incorrect adjustment of
features that cause harm or damage to persons or property. The Cub is a personal safety device, it is the
user’s responsibility to respond appropriately to an alarm situation.
Inadequate performance of the gas detection equipment described in this manual may not necessarily be
self-evident and consequently equipment must be regularly inspected and maintained. Ion Science Ltd
recommends that personnel responsible for equipment use a regime of regular checks to ensure it performs
within calibration limits, and that a record be maintained which logs calibration check data. The equipment
should be used in accordance with this manual, and in compliance with local safety standards.
Important
It is essential that the Cub is always used with a supplied 0.5 micron PTFE Filter Disc fitted to the front of the
instrument. Without a filter, particles of debris and dust can be drawn into the detector inhibiting the function
of the instrument. These filters are consumable and should be changed after every 100 hours of use. The
frequency of replacement should be increased for dusty or moisture laden environments. Filters are
available from your distributor or at
