Safety Information
Please read the following information before using the detector:
Do not use a damaged gas detector. Before using the detector. Check for cracks or missing parts. If the
detector is damaged or incomplete, please contact IMR.
It is highly recommend to do a "bump test" to ensure proper performance of the detector (refer to section
4.3 for more information). Calibrate the device if the test value is beyond detection range (refer to
section 4.8 for more information).
Do "bump tests" periodically to confirm sensor is responding to gas. Verify that the audio, visual, and
vibration alarms are working properly during the test.
Use only accessories specially designed for EX610 or accessories approved by IMR.
Use only the charger supplied with the detector. Do not charge the detector in hazardous area.
Detectors with catalytic or semiconductor sensor: Exposing the sensor to gas concentrations beyond its
detection range for a prolonged period of time can adversely affect the cell and possibly lead to damage.
Detectors with catalytic or semiconductor sensor: Will be damaged if exposed to environments
containing: lean chromate, sulfur compounds, phosphorus compounds, or silicon. Do not use the
detector in these environments.
Do not expose the device to environments that consist of hydrogen sulfide, halogenated hydrocarbon, or
highly corrosive gases for extended periods of time. Doing so will reduce the response of the sensor and
there for its accuracy. If the device needs to be used in environments preform a Bump Test before and
after to ensure functionality of the sensors (see section 4.3).
Do not expose the device to environments that have the potential for electric shock, strong magnetic
fields, or intense continuous mechanic vibration.
This device uses a lithium-ion battery. Follow all local environmental and governmental regulations
when disposing of the battery.
Any unauthorized disassembly, modification or repair of the gas detector will void the warranty.
Avoid dropping the detector from high elevations or exposing it to extreme vibrations.
For any issues not covered in this manual. Contact IMR for more information.

1. Brief Introduction
IMR EX610 portable single gas detector is an intrinsically safe instrument which continuously detects
combustible and toxic gases. It is suitable for combustible and toxic gas leakage detection in underground pipes
or mines. It keeps workers safe and helps prevent facilities from being damaged.
The detector uses high-quality sensors and detects gases via the natural diffusion method. It also has high
sensitivity and repeatability. The detector uses an embedded MCU controller making it easy to operate.
The shell uses special high strength material and anti-slip rubber. It is also water-proof and dust-proof.
