This Standard applies to gas detection equipment, including explosion-protected gas detection equipment, used to measure the concentration of oxygen and toxic levels of gases and vapours. This Standard also applies to those parts of multi-gas detection equipment which are used to measure the concentration of oxygen and toxic levels of gases and vapours.This Standard does not apply to gas detection equipment, or those parts of multi-gas detection equipment, used to detect flammable gases and vapours below, within and above their flammability limits. Such equipment is covered by AS/NZS 60079.29.1.NOTE: Equipment that is within the scope of this Standard and AS/NZS 60079.29.1 may be assessed and tested to both Standards.
