Energizer PORTABLE GAS DETECTION INSTRUMENT manual Sensor Replacement Message, Ment Message

Note: SCOTT INSTRUMENTS supplies Teflon®-lined tubing with all chlorine and ammonia calibration kits. Sticky gases such as chlorine and ammonia require this tubing be used for calibration. Using tub- ing of another type may inhibit the automatic calibration of a MINI-SA and lead to improper readings or a false failed sensor message. All other calibration kits are supplied with Tygon (R-3603) Tubing.

SCOTT INSTRUMENTS also recommends that the tubing and cylinder regulator used with a specific toxic gas not be used with other gases.
