Rev 1.0 In the beginning ttis of our great pleasure to purchase Riken portable HC/O2 gas detector mode! RX-415 this time. This instrument is an explosion-proof type portable gas detector which is designed to measure the presence of crude vapors in an inert gas or in air such as HC gas, vapors and methane gas and 02. This instruction manual is a guide book for operation of Riken portable HC/O2 gas detector model RX-415. Itis kindly requested to read and understand this content by experienced users as well as beginners. The following headline shall be shown to carry out the safety and effective ‘work in this instruction manual. A Danger This means that it gives the serious harm to the human life, body or material directly such as touching high voltage. A. Warning This means that it gives the serious harm to the human body or material if do not perform the operation according to the instruction manual. A Caution This means that it gives the slight harm to the human body or material if do not perform the operation according to the instruction manual. * Note ‘This means the advice in the operation. Model RX-415 consists of two type according to the kind of gases below ; ForHC gas use: — Model RX-415 (TYPE HC) HC — :0-100%LEL/0-100vol% 02 — :0-25vol% For CH4 gas use: — Model RX-415 (TYPE CH4) CH4 :0-100%LEL/0-100vol% 02 — :0-25vole%INS— 1462.
