1 INTRODUCTION

The Dioxor® II is a commercial-grade portable instrument designed to display concentrations of sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas between 0 and 2000 ppm. This instrument shows the presence of SO2 in a gas sample by drawing the sample into its sensor cham- ber by a built-in motorized pump. Part #19-7038 comes with a probe. Part #19- 7043 comes without a probe (All non- probe related functions remain the same in this instruction).

Other features and accessories of the Dioxor II include: A large, back-lit Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), which allows the display to be read in any lighting condition from direct sun-light to total darkness; a semi-detachable elastic strap that permits the instrument to be either hand held, or hung on nearby objects; a rigid stainless steel probe with handle, connected to a flexible hose with sample filter that allows gas samples to be taken from cramped and confined areas (alternate probes and condensate traps may be used).
