  • Page 5: Description

    DM-634C Oxygen Sensor Assembly Description Detcon MicroSafe™ Model DM-634, oxygen deficiency sensors are non-intrusive “Smart” sensors designed to detect and monitor O2 in air over the range of 0-25%. One of the primary features of the sensor is its method of automatic calibration which guides the user through each step via instructions displayed on the backlit LCD.
  • Page 6: Microprocessor Control Circuit

    DM-634C Oxygen Sensor Assembly 3.0.2 Microprocessor Control Circuit The control circuit is microprocessor based and is packaged as a plug-in field replaceable module, facilitating easy replacement and minimum down time. Circuit functions include a basic sensor pre-amplifier, on-board power supplies, microprocessor, back lit alpha numeric display, alarm status LED indicators, magnetic programming switches, an RS-485 communication port, and a linear 4-20 mA DC output.
  • Page 7: Explosion Proof Enclosure

    DM-634C Oxygen Sensor Assembly 3.0.4 Explosion Proof Enclosure The sensors are packaged in a cast metal explosion proof enclosure. The enclosure is fitted with a threaded cover that has a glass lens window. Magnetic program switches located behind the transmitter module face plate are activated through the lens window via a hand-held magnetic programming tool allowing non- intrusive operator interface with the sensor.
  • Page 8: Application

    DM-634C Oxygen Sensor Assembly Application Model DM-634 MicroSafe™ sensors are designed to detect and monitor oxygen deficiency in ambient air in the range of 0-25%. Minimum sensitivity and scale resolution is 0.1%. Operating temperature range is -4° F. to +122° F. While the sensor is capable of operating outside these temperatures, performance specifications are verified within the limit.
  • Page 9: Operating Software

    DM-634C Oxygen Sensor Assembly Operating Software Operating software is menu listed with operator interface via the two magnetic program switches located under the face plate. The two switches are referred to as “PGM 1” and “PGM 2”. The menu list consists of 3 items which include sub-menus as indicated below.

  • Page 13: Figure 7 Typical Outline And Mounting Dimensions

    DM-634C Oxygen Sensor Assembly NOTE: If a voltage signal output is desired in place of the 4-20mA output, a 1/4 watt resistor must be installed in position R1 of the terminal board. A 250Ω resistor will provide a 1-5V output (– to mA). A 100Ω resistor will provide a .4-2V output, etc. This linear signal corresponds to 0-100% of scale (see Figure 8).

  • Page 17: Start Up

    3.9.2. Initial operational tests are complete. Detcon O2 gas sensors are pre-calibrated prior to shipment and will, in most cases, not require significant adjustment on start up. However, it is recommended that a complete calibration test and adjustment be performed within 24 hours of installation.

Enter the menu by holding the programming magnet stationary over “PGM 1” for 3 seconds until the display reads “CalGas @ ## %”, then withdraw the magnet.
  • Page 20: Calibration Frequency

    DM-634C Oxygen Sensor Assembly 3.7.3 Calibration Frequency In most applications, monthly to quarterly calibration intervals will assure reliable detection. However, industrial environments differ. Upon initial installation and commissioning, close frequency tests should be performed, weekly to monthly. Test results should be recorded and reviewed to determine a suitable calibration interval.
