49-1620-03 GX-6000 Continuous Operation
Adapter Supplement
Document Part Number: 71-0467 Revision: P2 Released: 4/3/20
Overview
The 49-1620-03 continuous operation adapter for the GX-6000 allows the instrument
to operate for extended periods. The continuous operation adapter allows the
instrument to draw power from an AC outlet instead of alkaline batteries or a
rechargeable battery pack.
Operation
1. Plug the AC power supply into a wall socket.
2. Install the continuous operation adapter pack onto the GX-6000 if it is not already
installed.
3. Plug the jack from the AC power supply into the socket from the continuous
operation adapter.

Special Considerations and Warnings
GX-6000s shipped with a continuous operation adapter operate as described in the
GX-6000 Operator’s Manual with the following exceptions:
• The GX-6000 is intended for intermittent daily use. Operating the instrument
continuously will result in increased pump wear and decreased pump life. A
pump used for continuous operation will typically only last 6 months. If the
GX-6000 is used with the continuous operation adapter, pump failure will not
be covered under warranty.
• There are no TWA alarms for any channel.
• Installation of the continuous operation adapter voids the intrinsic safety of
the GX-6000 making it unsuitable for use in a hazardous location. If you need
to monitor a hazardous location, an alkaline pack (RKI part number 49-1620)
or a rechargeable Li-ion pack (RKI part number 49-1619) must be used
instead.
