Liability for Function and/or DamageLiability for Function and/or Damage
Liability for the functioning of the appliance passes to the owner or operator
in all cases in which the appliance has been improperly maintained or
repaired by persons not associated with SEWERIN Service or if it has been
used for a purpose not in accordance with its designated application.
You should therefore always use original SEWERIN accessories with the
EX-TEC® SR 5, SR4, SR2 and VARIOTEC® 8.
Hermann Sewerin GmbH accepts no responsibility for damage due to a
failure to comply with the foregoing instructions. The guarantee and liability
terms of the Hermann Sewerin GmbH terms of sale and supply are not
extended by the foregoing.

• screw the selected test-gas bottle onto the test set as far as it
will go (illustration 1/2 - item 2)
• connect the detector's probe nipple (item 3) to the test set hose
(illustration 1/2 - item 1)
• switch the detector on; the pump draws in

test set (illustration 1/2 - item 4)
• use the needle valve (illustration 1/2 - item 5) to set the maximum
flow; it must be > 50 l/h (illustration 1/2 - item 6)
• wait until a stable zero point has been established (warm-up
time)
• press the release button (illustration 1/2 - item 3) on the test set
and adjust the flow to the fresh-air value (illustration 1/2 - item 6)
• hold it down until the indicated concentration has reached a
stable value
Admissible display values for methane CH4 test gas:
• test gas 10 ppm : > 5 ppm
• test gas 100 ppm : 70 ... 140 ppm
• test gas 1,000 ppm : 800 ... 1,200 ppm
• test gas 1.00 vol.% : 0.80 ... 1.20 vol.%,

• test gas 100 vol.% : 98 ... 102 vol.%
Admissible display values for propane C3H8 test gas:
• test gas 1.00 vol.% : 0.90 ... 1.10 vol.% (55 - 64 %LEL)
• test gas 100 vol.% : 98 ... 102 vol.%
If display values are outside these tolerances the detector must be

The sensors are deleteriously affected by gaseous components of
silicones, oils and phosphate esters, which irreversibly reduce their
sensitivity.
Pollution of the measuring environment by halogens, burnt neoprene,
PVC, trichloroethylene and the like also weakens the sensitivity of the
sensors, but in this case it can be regenerated.
