WARNING
Any unauthorized attempt to repair or modify the product, or any other cause of
damage beyond the range of the intended use, including damage by fire, lightning,
or other hazard, voids liability of the manufacturer.
Activate this product only if sensor, visual, detection, and audible cover are clear from
contaminants such as dirt and debris that could block the area where gas is to be
detected.
Do not clean and rub the LCD screen of the products with a dry cloth or hands in
hazardous environment to prevent static electricity.
Perform cleaning and maintenance of the products in fresh air that is free of
hazardous gases.
Test the response of the sensor regularly with a gas concentration exceeding the
alarm set point.
Test LED, audio, and vibration manually.
Gas concentration measurements by the sensor can vary based on the environment
(temperature, pressure and humidity). Therefore, calibration of PM
performed in the same (or similar) environment of the device’s actual use.
If the temperature changes sharply during use of the device (e.g., indoors vs
outdoors), the value of the measured gas concentration can suddenly change. Please
use the PM
after the gas concentration value has stabilized.
100
Severe vibration or shock to the device may cause a sudden reading change. Please
use PM
after the value of gas concentration has stabilized. Excessive shock to PM
100
can cause the device and/or sensor to malfunction.
All alarm values are set based on the alarm standard that is required by international
standards. Therefore, alarm values should be changed only under the responsibility
and approval of the administration of the work site where the instrument is used.
Use IR communications in the safety zone which is free of hazardous gases.
Do not attempt to replace the battery and sensor as PM
is designed to be
100
disposable. Changing the battery and sensor may impair intrinsic safety and the
attempt will void warranty.

CAUTIONS
Before operating this device, please read the manual carefully.
This device is not a measurement device, but a gas detector.
If calibration and self-test fails continuously, please do not use the device.
For the O
detector, perform calibration every 30 days in the fresh air environment.
2
Before use, please check the activation date, and if the activation date has past,
please do not use the device.
Clean detectors with a soft cloth and do not use chemical substances for cleaning.
To maintain a 24-month lifetime, avoid the below activities except in necessary cases
to check events(Max/Min), lifetime/concentration, and alarm set points. Otherwise,
the frequent use of the button will deplete the battery lifetime less than 24 months.
1. Push the button frequently without valid reasons.
2. Frequent alarm operation or alarms are remained for a long time.
*Normal Alarm Use: 1 time and 2 minutes per d ay.
3. Connect with the PM Link frequently except the bump testing.
View a serial number on the label at the back side of the device. (ex, 20170101)

1. General Information
The PM
protects workers by providing exposure detection for specific gases in hazardous
environments. The PM
provides real-time gas concentrations on an easy to read LCD display. A three-tier
alarm system warns the user of the presence of unsafe gas levels with audible,
visual, and vibrating alarms. The PM
(CO), Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) and Oxygen (O2).

Note: The PM
monitor is designed to operate continuously for the life of the instrument

and cannot be turned off once activated.
4.1. Activating the Monitor
To activate the monitor, press and hold the [Function key] for 3 seconds. While the key is
depressed, a 3-second count-up timer will be displayed. Once the counter reaches three
(3), release the [Function key].
The monitor will perform the following startup sequence.
The unit will display the gas type, firmware version, display/alarm test, followed by a 10-
is complete, the monitor defaults second stabilization countdown. Once the countdown
to Measurement mode, displaying the current gas readings and the icon.
Sensor readings may drift during shipping. All newly purchased monitors should be
bump tested to a known concentration of gas before use.
If sensor stabilization fails, the icon will appear on the display and no gas concentrations
will be displayed. Perform a calibration (see Calibration) or contact AimSafety for more
information.
