ATEX Approval (5100-05-IT) The 5100-XX-IT is designed and approved for installation and operation in hazardous locations. Members of the 5100-XX-IT Series Toxic Gas family include: • 5100-03-IT Oxygen Gas Sensor Module • 5100-04-IT Carbon Monoxide Gas Sensor Module • 5100-05-IT Hydrogen Sulfide Gas Sensor Module •...
1.3 THEORY OF OPERATION Electrochemical sensors are fuel cell-like devices consisting of an anode, cathode, and electrolyte. The components of the cell are selected so a subject gas, allowed to diffuse into the cell, will cause a chemical reaction and generate a current. The cells are diffusion limited so the rate the gas enters the cell is solely dependent on the gas concentration.
1.5 MECHANICAL The sensor module is comprised of the following three primary components: ENCLOSURE Standard on the 5100-XX-IT is an explosion-proof, rain-tight cast aluminum electrical housing (Figure 1-3) with three ¾” FNPT conduit hubs. The 5100-XX-IT-SS has a 316 Stainless Steel enclosure (Figure 1-2). Both enclosure covers have a viewing window.

2.1 INTRODUCTION Although the IT Transmitter Modules are designed and constructed for installation and operation in industrial applications including “hostile” environments, caution should be taken to insure that the installation is made in compliance with this instruction manual and that certain procedures and conditions are avoided. This chapter discusses the necessary cautions.
3.1 OVERVIEW The gas sensor module has been supplied factory calibrated and ready for immediate installation and operation. An installer familiar with installation and operation of gas detection products can use this section to begin immediate use of the module. 3.2 WIRING See section 4.2 to determine if 3-wire or 4-wire operation is necessary.
4.1 SENSOR MODULE LOCATIONS All modules are tagged to indicate the configuration including the sensor module number Identify all components during unpacking and install using the factory configuration. The gas sensor module utilizes a diffusion type sensor which should be located close to either the expected source or destination of the gas hazard.
4.2 WIRING 4.2.1 ANALOG 4-20 MA OPERATION (FIGURE 4-6) The 4-20 mA output for the 5100-XX-IT can be either 3-wire (ISA Type 3 Circuit) or standard 4-wire (ISA Type 4 Circuit) operation. If using 3-wire operation, use a minimum of 18 AWG, shielded, 3-conductor cable up to 2000’.
4.3 ENCLOSURE INSTALLATION To protect the transmitter and sensor assembly they should be removed from the enclosure and preserved until final installation and wiring termination. modules Prior to installation and wiring: 1. Remove the transmitter from the module housing by: •...

5.1 INTRODUCTION The Gas Sensor Module utilizes a visual menu system operated by means of a magnet. A magnetic tool (5358-50) is supplied for this purpose. The menu system is used to configure alarm set-points, calibrate the sensor module, and for maintenance procedures and alarms acknowledge. 5.2 DATA ENTRY KEYPAD The module menu system is operated by means of directing the magnet stick toward each of four independent hall-effect magnetic switches.
