2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
• Only use the calibration leak as intended, as described in the instruction manual,
to avoid hazards due to misuse.
The calibration leak is used to calibrate the battery leak detector. This usually
takes place once a day. Before first use, the calibration leak must be removed
from the packaging and stored for 24 hours with the opening facing downwards.
The calibration leak, opening downwards, is placed in the test chamber of the
battery leak detector and evacuated. The escaping solvent in gaseous form is
detected. It can be used in roofed and closed rooms. 12 months after
manufacture, the calibration leak must no longer be used. It must then be sent in
for a refill see "Decommissioning [}14]". Storage is in a well-ventilated place. A
closed container is not suitable.
• Adhere to the restrictions of use, see "Technical data [}12]”.
Incorrect usage
Avoid the following unintended uses:
• Operation of the calibration leak by untrained personnel
• Use outside the technical specifications, see "Technical Specifications"
• Use of the calibration leak for detectable defects
• Operation at too high ambient temperature
• Using the device outside of the specific area
• Exceeding permissible ambient conditions for calibration leaksExceeding
permissible environmental conditions for the calibration leaks
• Storage in a poorly ventilated place or closed container
• Use or storage near sources of ignition or heat
• Use the calibration leak to calibrate other devices with an internal ignition source.
• Abuse for purposes of intoxication
• Opening the calibrating leak
• Refilling by the customer
• Use with chemicals/liquids other than DMC
• Rücksendung ohne geeignete Transportmittel/Verpackung/Warnaufkleber
