2. Surveyor 4B is Class II equipment. Surveyor 4B is equipped with a small "NORMAL" box (58 x 105 x 90 mm). It can be snap-fastened onto a standard symmetrical DIN rail and should imperatively be integrated in a closed electrical equipment cabinet.

The components used in operation are located on the front of the appliance: adjustments and tests on the top (Item 1, Figure 1), indicator lights on the FRONT face (Item 2,Figure 1), connections at the bottom (Item 3, Figure 1). Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 Figure 1 Surveyor 4B User Manual...
Chapter 3│ Mounting of the SURVEYOR 4B The surveyor 4B appliance fitted on its symmetrical DIN rail must be installed in a closed electrical equipment cabinet. A space of 100 mm is necessary around of the Surveyor 4B. The Surveyor 4B should preferably be located in a monitored location (such as a guardhouse, control room or instrumentation room).
. The nature of the current and line voltage must be checked. The line voltage must match the voltage specified on the plate fitted on the Surveyor 4B. The voltage is configured in the factory.
The 12 volt power supply can be connected to the points marked 0 and 12 V on the Surveyor 4B terminal block (see Figure 2, Item2). The Surveyor 4B must be protected on the upstream side by a fuse (630mA) with time-delay.
Detector terminal • The maximum loop resistance is 1.4 ohms. For example: the maximum distance between Surveyor 4B and the detector will be 40 m with conductors with a cross section of 1.5 mm². External components Surveyor 4B is equipped with the following two relays: •...

Caution: The high-power solenoid valves cannot be directly remote controlled . A power relay is required. The maximum current through the relay contacts will be 2 A and the maximum voltage will be 250 Vac ou 30 Vdc. Surveyor 4B User Manual...

Chapter 5│ Operating instructions Switching on It is assumed that all the necessary connections have been made and that the whole installation complies with the standards currently in force. As soon as the SV 4B is supplied with power, it is ready to use and the GREEN light-emitting diode lights up (rep 1, Figure 7).

(humidity, temperature, dust, etc.); however, it must not exceed one year. The general manager should put safety procedures in place on-site. OLDHAM cannot be held responsible for their enforcement. Surveyor 4B...

Adjusting the "gas alarm" thresholds Using a "reference gas kit" (gas cylinder + pressure regulator, etc.), inject the reference gas with a content level higher than the first threshold desired. (For example, threshold 1 will be 20% LEL, so a minimum of 25% LEL should be injected).

(or to below the threshold). This is done by pressing the Ack. key (item 5, Figure 8). Automatic mode: When a gas alarm is triggered, it is cleared automatically as soon as the content level falls below the alarm threshold. Surveyor 4B User Manual...

As long as there is a high enough concentration of gas to trigger an alarm, it is impossible to clear that alarm manually (with the Ack. button). 5 - Operating instructions...

- Allow to stabilize for at least 10 seconds. - Check that the alarm or alarms are triggered (as applicable ) and carry out the following procedure. La valeur du gaz étalon sera supérieure au moins au premier seuil d'alarme. Surveyor 4B User Manual...

Chapter 7│ Disposal Concerning the conservation, of the protection and the improvement of the quality of the environment, as well as for the protection of the health of the persons and the careful and rational use of natural resources, SV 4B has to be the object of a selective collection for the electronic equipments and cannot be scrapped with the normal domestic waste.

Fuse replacement should only be performed by qualified personnel and power must be first switched off. Fuses shall comply with IEC 60127 standard (time-delay fuse, low breaking capacity, 250Vac). Please see Chapter 8│. Oldham does not allow any other repairs than those listed here above. 9 – Maintenance...
