Using GAS-Mate
1. Long press the Power button to turn GAS-Mate On or Off.
NOTE: GAS-Mate should be turned on in clean air free of combustible gas.
2. Wait for GAS-Mate to warm up, about 30 seconds up to two minutes.
NOTE: GAS-Mate will alarm during warm-up and the highest leak indicator
will illuminate. When warm-up is complete, GAS-Mate will beep
steadily.
3. If needed, adjust sensitivity by swiping up or down on the touch pad. The leak
indicators will illuminate to indicate the sensitivity level.
NOTE: GAS-Mate defaults to maximum sensitivity on startup. It is
recommended to use this setting for most applications.
4. Carry GAS-Mate into the area of the suspected leak. An alarm at this time
indicates a build-up of combustible gas in the general area.
NOTE: When GAS-Mate detects combustible gas, it will alarm and the leak
indicators will illuminate. Faster beeping or a solid alarm indicate a
larger concentration of combustible gas.
NOTE: GAS-Mate will automatically zero to the background concentration,
indicated by the alarm slowly returning to a steady beep. Once
zeroed, only a higher concentration will cause an alarm.
5. Move the probe tip slowly (approximately 1 to 2 in. (2.5 to 5 cm) per second)
around suspected leak sites. Position the probe tip as close as possible to the
suspected leak site for optimum performance.
6. To confirm a leak, pull the probe away from the suspected leak site and allow
the instrument to return to a steady state. Repeat step 5.
NOTE: After exposure to very high concentrations of some gases, the sensor
may require several minutes to stabilize and return to normal
operation.
