1 Intended use
This device measures the oxygen concentration in gas mixtures and air. The actual
measurement takes place at the opening of the sensor. Due to the design of the
sensor, the device has to be calibrated at regular intervals (at fresh air =20.95%
oxygen) to get accurate measuring values. If the sensor is used up, this will be
detected at calibration and the sensor element has to be replaced before the next
measurement.
2 General note
Read this document carefully and get used to the handling of the device before you
use it. Keep this paper ready to hand in order to look it up if a question turns up.

4 Safety instructions
This device has been designed and tested in accordance to the safety regulations
for electronic devices. However, its trouble-free operation and reliability cannot be
guaranteed unless standard safety measures and special safety advises given in
this manual will be adhered to when using it.
1. Trouble-free operation and reliability of the device can only be guaranteed if it
is not subjected to any other climatic conditions than those stated under
“Specification”.
2. Transporting the device from a cold to a warm environment condensation may
result in a failure of the function. In such a case make sure the device
temperature has adjusted to the ambient temp. before trying a new start-up.
3. The circuitry has to be designed most carefully if the device should be
connected to other devices. Internal connection in third party devices (e.g.
connection GND and earth) may result in not-permissible voltages impairing or
destroying the device or another device connected.
4. Whenever there may be a risk whatsoever involved in running it, the device
has to be switched off immediately and to be marked accordingly to avoid restarting. Operator safety may be a risk if:
- there is visible damage to the device or the device is not working as specified.
- the device has been stored under unsuitable conditions for a longer time.
In case of doubt, please return device to manufacturer for repair or
maintenance.
5. Warning: Do not use this product as safety or emergency stop device or in
other applications where failure of the product could result in personal injury or
material damage. Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death
or serious injury and material damage.
6. This device only serves as supervision by the monitoring of essential or other
for the customer important systems.
It must not be used instead of compulsory approval monitoring devices and it is
not designed for that purpose. If this device is used for the monitoring of such
systems on its own, the manufacturer will not assume liability for damages
whatsoever.
7. Caution, acid! The sensor contains KOH. This can cause severe chemical
burns. If leaking, avoid contact!
If there was contact:
- to skin: Flush contacted area with large amounts of water
for several minutes.
- to clothing: remove contaminated clothing.
- to eyes: Flush with large amounts of water for several
minutes, obtain medical treatment.
After swallowing:
- give large volumes of water. DO NOT induce vomiting!
- Obtain medical treatment.

5 Operating and maintenance advice
The battery has to be taken out, when the device is stored above 50°C.
Handle the device and the sensor with care and only use it according its
specification. The connectors have to be saved from humidity and dirt.
Unplug the sensor not by pulling the cable, but the plug.
Tip: It is recommended to take the battery out, when the device is stored for a
longer period of time.

7 Oxygen measuring
The oxygen measurement depends on air pressure. The current pressure can be
entered during configuration.
If you measure at atmosphere and the calibration took place at the same
conditions, the pressure value has not to be adjusted necessarily, because the
same pressure is used for calibration and measuring.
If the measurement is carried out at other pressure conditions than the
calibration: The actual pressure has to be entered in the configuration for
measurement and calibration.
The sensor‟s temperature dependency is compensated internally. However for
best results try to keep the same temperature both during calibration and
measuring.
Temperature differences between sensor and gas may cause additional errors!
Therefore wait an appropriate period of time until the sensor has adjusted its
temperature to the gas that is measured. A suitable flow of the gas around the
sensor increases the adjustment significantly.
Try to avoid warming of the sensor by touching it during measurement or
calibration.
When measuring bottled gas, consider that the gas coming out is cooler than the
ambient because of the pressure loss! Strong air flows can produce an over
pressure at the sensor – possible source of measuring/calibration errors!
The nominal life time can be shortened by:
- Wrong storage / operation temperature
- Permanent use with dry gases (compressed gas).
It helps to put the sensor to normal-humid ambient air in measuring breaks
(“flush” system with fresh air).
The optimum operation position is: with the sensor inlet pointing downwards
8 Calibration
In order to compensate for ageing of the sensor and air pressure fluctuations due
to weather changes, the sensor has to be calibrated at regular intervals. We
recommend to calibrate it at least once a week or, for optimum measuring results,
directly before starting the measuring process. Adjust the absolute pressure at the
configuration point “P.Ab” before carrying out a calibration.
Calibration: The sensor will be calibrated to the atmospheric oxygen concentration
of 20.95%. The sensor has to be subjected to air (make sure that rooms are
thoroughly aired).
Press the key for 2 sec till appears.
The calibration will be automatically completed as soon as the measuring values
for oxygen are stable (takes a few seconds). After the calibration the device will
show the rating of the sensor state for a short time.
If an error message (CE.3, CE.4, CE.6) is displayed, the sensor signal is
invalid. Press any key to restart, the previous calibration will be restored.
