Notice Regarding Sulfuryl Fluoride

Sulfuryl Fluoride is an odorless gas that has no warning properties. There is a danger of serious damage to

health by prolonged exposure through inhalation.

The SF-ExplorIR™ Monitor provides accurate, real-time sulfuryl Fluoride concentration measurements.

Only qualified and trained operators are, with proper use of the SF-ExplorIR™ Monitor, able to re-

enter and provide final clearance of fumigated spaces.

The SF-ExplorIRTM Monito is a continuous read and continuous motion clearance device per SF

label requirements.

Principal of Measurement

The Spectros Instruments Sulfuryl Fluoride (SO2F2) Clearance Monitor (SF-ExplorIR™) is designed

to detect, quantify and display the concentration of SO2F2 gas in the area being monitored.

The SF-ExplorIR

™

monitor uses non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) technology to detect low level

concentrations of sulfuryl fluoride and allows the final clearance and safe re-entry of fumigated spaces. The

concentration of sulfuryl fluoride is calculated according to absolute Laws of Physics. The calculation

compares a reference sample “zero air” (clean air in the internal air bag) against a sample reading.

Operation of Monitor

During normal operation the SF-ExplorIR™ displays both the current gas level and the peak gas level

detected on its front panel LCD. The monitor retains a log of previous readings that can easily be accessed

at a later time for analysis. Front panel indicators and an audible alarm are provided to signal gas alarm

and instrument fault conditions.

Aeration and Re-entry

Fumigators who are re-entering fumigation and risk areas to check for sulfuryl fluoride gas concentrations

must wear SCBA (Self Contained Breathing Apparatus) for respiratory protection until the concentration

within the structure has been confirmed to be 1 ppm or less. Please consult appropriate gas manufacturer’s

labels, state, and federal requirements.

Correct Re-Zero Operation

The “zero air” sample needs to be of the same temperature and

relative humidity as the air to be measured for sulfuryl fluoride.

Purging the SF-ExplorIR™ after warm-up with previous held air inside the monitor is not the same as

forcing a Bag Empty and refilling with clean air known to be free of SF.

In cases where the monitor is taken from a cooler (air conditioned environment and set to work; the end-

user should empty the internal air bag content prior to use and refill with a know clean air sample at the

same temperature and relative humidity as the sample area to be measured.

Please consult operation manual and/or distributor for this procedure.

Notice for First Time Use of Battery

The SF-ExplorIR™ monitor is shipped with a partially charged battery and should be charged by the end-

user for at least 2 continuous hours prior to first use. If after this time the green LED’s are not observed

then depress the TEST button on the battery pack and hold until they appear. Repeat if necessary.

Compliant Battery

Spectros Instruments has determined and set the correct voltage and polarity needed for compliant battery

performance. Only a Spectros Instruments provided battery should be used. Use of another battery will

automatically void any warranty and may result in severe damage to the monitor.

these instructions. Changes or modifications to this monitor will void the warranty.

Altitude Limit

6,562 ft (2,000 m)

Cleaning

To clean the outside of the case, DO NOT use soap and water. USE a dry cloth

Your SF-ExplorIR Safe Entry Monitor was carefully inspected at the factory before shipment, and packed so

as to be highly resistant to damage while in transport. When you receive the instrument, however, please

unpackit promptly and make a visual inspection to make sure that no damage has occurred during

shipment. Also check that all the following items have been received.

Shipping Precaution

When shipping the instrument by air, deflate the purge-air bag to prevent it from bursting due to changes

in air pressure. Deflate the bag by selecting the EMTYBAG function as described on Page 11.

Features and Capabilities

•Measurement range of 0–100 ppm with a resolution of 1 ppm

•Self contained purge-air bag, allowing the monitor to be used in a contaminated atmosphere

•Automatically logs up to 200 gas readings that can be printed / plotted for analysis (Option)

•Eliminates false alarms with use of non-dispersive IR source and sample draw system

•Visual and audible gas alarm indictors that are turned ON when the detected gas level exceeds user

defined trip-point.

•Extensive self diagnostics, providing both visual and audible indications when a fault occurs

•Battery powered, providing at least 6 hours of operation

•Optional cell phone application (ClearSite) for web based data logging and reporting

Functional Overview

The Spectros Instruments Sulfuryl Fluoride (SO2F2) Portable Monitor (SF-ExplorIR™) is designed

to detect, measure, and display the concentration of SO2F2 gas in the area being monitored. To ensure

accurate gas measurements, the monitor self-zeros every 4 minutes using its internal supply of fresh air.

Front panel indicators and an audible alarm are provided to signal gas alarm and instrument fault conditions.

The audible alarm can temporarily be silenced by a push of a button, but will reactivate if the

gas level is still above the alarm trip point after a user-defined time period has elapsed.

The SF-ExplorIRTM Monitor requires only minor periodic maintenance such as the annual replacement of

internal particle filter and fresh air bag. The monitor incorporates active diagnostics that continuously check

the system for proper operation. A front panel indicator is provided to alert an operator of system

malfunctions, and fault codes are generated that enable the operator to quickly identify the cause of the fault.
