Step 1: Choose a Location for the Device

Choose a location where the device will be protected from the elements and out of reach of children. The device should be placed in an area where it will be exposed to the potential presence of mercury. This could be near a mercury spill kit, a furnace, or an area where mercury-containing devices are stored.

Step 2: Mount the Device

The Mercury Monitoring Device can be mounted on a wall or ceiling. To mount the device, use the provided mounting screws to secure it to the desired surface. If you are mounting the device on a ceiling, you may need to use a drill to create pilot holes for the screws.

Step 4: Power on the Device

Once the batteries are inserted, the Mercury Monitoring Device will automatically power on. The device will begin to sample the air for the presence of mercury.

Step 5: Test the Device

To test the Mercury Monitoring Device, use a small amount of mercury to create a spill. The device will immediately detect the presence of mercury and sound an alarm. The alarm will continue to sound until the mercury is cleaned up.

Step 6: Maintenance

The Mercury Monitoring Device requires minimal maintenance. The batteries should be replaced every year, or sooner if the device is used frequently. The device should also be cleaned periodically to remove any dust or debris that may have accumulated.
