Sensor Maintenance
- The working life of HCHO sensor is 6 years, and the working life of O3 sensor is 2 years. Please contact Milesight to purchase sensor replacement chips and refer to replacing video to replace the sensors.
- Avoid exposing the device to gases with high concentrations over a long period time, or it may damage the device and decrease the performance.
- Do not expose the device to corrosive gas, silicon vapor or high levels of volatile organic compounds.
- Do not clean the device with detergents or solvents such as benzene or alcohol. To clean the device, wipe with a soft moistened cloth. Use another soft, dry cloth to wipe dry.
- Do not paint or cover the device, which may block the air inlets.
- During the transportation and storage, do not take the device out of default antistatic bags.
- It is suggested to place device under well-ventilated environment, otherwise the accuracy of TVOC will drop.
- There is possible TVOC accuracy drift if you store without power for a long time
in different devices. If you prefer a more consistent reading with better
precision, you can keep the device powered on in clear air for some time
according to the below list.
