Intended Application of the Gas Analyzer

The gas analyzer is designed for continuous measurement of the concentration of individual components in gases or vapors. Any other use is not as specified. The specified use also includes taking note of this operator's manual. The gas analyzer may not be used for the measurement of ignitable gas/air or gas/oxygen mixtures. The gas analyzer version with stainless steel gas lines and gas connections (EL3020 and EL3040 models) may be used for the measurement of flammable gases1 and vapors in a non-hazardous environment, The special requirements for the measurement of flammable gases (see page 39) must be complied with. The oxygen sensor and the modules of the integrated gas feed (Option "Integrated Gas Feed" – only in the EL3020 model, not with Limas23, ZO23, Fidas24) may not be used for the measurement of flammable gases. The explosion-proof version of the gas analyzer with degree of protection II 3G (see page 40) (EL3040 model) may be used for the measurement of non-flammable gases and vapors in a hazardous environment.

NOTE

 The version for the measurement of flammable gases and vapors and the explosion-proof version with degree of protection II 3G are different versions of the gas analyzer and designed for different applications
