Chapter 1 | Presentation Purpose The OLCT10N is a digital detector designed to detect a particular gas depending on the type of sensor used. Composition of the detector An OLCT10N detector comprises the following elements: Rep. Description Enclosure Cable gland...
The detector shall be installed with the cable gland pointing downwards. For explosive gas detectors only, any tilt of more than 45° from the vertical will lead to an inaccurate measurement. OLCT10N Manual...
Connection RS485 transmission There are two cable entries on the OLCT10N, one entry is for the input signal and one is for the output signal – this is used for digitally connecting multiple transmitters on a single line to the MX43 Controller.

Switches Switches (ON = 1 ; OFF = 0) (ON = 1 ; OFF = 0) Table 1 : Addressing table (address depends on switch positions). Remarks: During module replacement, all the configuration switches of a new ■ module must be positioned in the same configuration as those of the the previous module.
Inspection or calibration is then recommended. Operation under low oxygen levels If an electrochemical detector sensor is used in an atmosphere comprising less than 1% oxygen for over one hour, the measurement may be an underestimate. OLCT10N Manual...
Frequency of maintenance Gas detectors are safety devices. OLDHAM recommends the regular testing of fixed gas detection installations. This type of test consists of injecting the standard gas into the detector at a sufficient concentration to activate the pre-set alarms. It is to be understood that this test is in no way a replacement for a detector calibration.
The OLCT10N can be calibrated either : Manually Or automatically The manual calibration have to be made only after each sensor or detector replacement. A manual calibration has to be followed by an automatic calibration. Please find below the different calibration gas concentrations.

Sensor replacement Sensors should be replaced as a part of regular preventative maintenance or following a failed calibration test. After a sensor replacement, both manual and automatic calibrations have to be conducted To change the sensor: 1. Remove the detector cover 2.
(in mV) corresponds to the amount of reference gas used. Use the following formula to calculate the correct value for the signal. Stop injecting gas (remove the calibration pipe from the sensor). Wait for the voltmeter to “return to zero.” Reference gas value 1600 (mV) Measuring scale OLCT10N Manual...
