– Maintenance work that is not detailed in these instructions for use must only
be carried out by Dräger or personnel qualified by Dräger.
– Dräger recommends concluding a Dräger service contract for all
maintenance activities and that all repairs are carried out by Dräger.
– Use only genuine Dräger spare parts and accessories. Otherwise the proper
functioning of the product may be impaired.
– Do not use a faulty or incomplete product. Do not modify the product.
– Replacement of components may impair intrinsic safety.
– After installation and after any changes to the product, e.g., to the antenna,
test the signal chain by applying target gas to the sensor.
– Do not open the battery box in explosion-hazard areas. Alternatively,
declassify the explosion-hazard area beforehand.
– Do not open the gas detector in dust explosion-hazard areas. Alternatively,
declassify the dust explosion-hazard area beforehand.
1.2 Operating area and operating conditions
– Observe the specifications and restrictions in the Instructions for Use and/
or data sheets for the sensors.

6100 EC WL, Dräger Polytron
– Not tested in oxygen enriched atmospheres (> 21 % O
– Using the gas detector in hazardous areas: Instruments or components for
use in explosion-hazard areas which have been tested and approved
according to national, European, or international explosion protection
regulations may only be used under the conditions specified in the approval
and with consideration of the relevant legal regulations.
– For use in hazardous areas, comply with the information on the approval
marking (see document "Notes on Approval", order no. 93 00 532).
1.3 Commissioning
– Before commissioning the gas detector, Dräger recommends a span
calibration with the target gas at the place of use.
If the target gas is not available, a substitute gas may be used.
1.4 Mechanical installation
– Observe local, state, and national regulations for the installation of gas
detection systems.
– Consider the following for the installation location:
– Physical properties of the gases or vapors to be measured and the
details of the particular application (e.g., proximity to possible leakage,
air movements/flows, expected spread of the gas or vapor cloud, etc.)
– Future use of accessories and maintenance equipment
– Vertical orientation of the gas detector (antenna points upwards)
– Free gas or vapor inflow to the sensor
– A sufficient radio signal for reliable measured value transmission
If this is not possible with the standard antenna, use a remote antenna.
– No direct sunlight that causes the temperature to rise above the
specified limit values.
Dräger recommends the weather protection kit (accessory).
– Protect the antenna connector from contamination and corrosion. If no
antenna is installed, attach cover cap (delivery state) and fasten hand-tight.
