Maintenance
The device should be inspected and maintained annually by
suitably qualified persons (consult: EN 60079-29-2 – Gas
measuring device - Selection, installation, use and maintenance
of apparatus for the measurement of combustible gases or oxy-
gen, EN 45544-4 – Electrical apparatus used for the direct
detection and direct concentration measurement of toxic gases
and vapours - Part 4: Guide for selection, installation, use and
maintenance and national regulations).
Recommended calibration interval for measuring channels Ex,
O , H S and CO: 6 months. Calibration intervals of other

gases: see Instructions for Use for the respective
DrägerSensors.

2) The device responds to most combustible gases and vapors.The sensitivities
differ depending on the type of gas. We recommend a calibration using the
target gas to be measured. For the range of alkanes, the sensitivity decreases
from methane to nonane.
3) The measuring signals can be affected additively by sulphur dioxide and nitro-
gen dioxide and negatively by chlorine.

Disposing of the Device

EU-wide regulations for the disposal of electric and elec-
tronic appliances which have been defined in the
EU Directive 2002/96/EC and in national laws have been
effective since August 2005 and apply to this device.
Common household appliances can be disposed of using spe-
cial collecting and recycling facilities. However, as this device
has not been registered for household usage, it must not be dis-
posed of through these means. The device can be returned to
your national Dräger Safety Sales Organisation for disposal.
Please do not hesitate to contact the above if you have any fur-
ther questions on this issue.
