Typical Connection Procedure (1) Prepare a power supply that can provide 24 V. (Do not turn on the power supply before wiring the main unit.) (2) Loosen the hexagon socket bolts on the four corners of the main unit using the provided hexagon wrench with a nominal diameter of 4 mm, and open the casing cover of the main unit.
7. Precautions before Use CAUTION Before turning ON any of the devices (e.g., indicator unit, signal converter) connected to the product, recheck that all of the connections are correct. Make sure that the gas detector and indicator unit or signal converter, in particular, are connected properly. 7-1. ...
8. Display at Start-up (Initial Delay) CAUTION If the sensor output is not stable, the external contact point may operate after the initial delay. Release the interlock of the external equipment if necessary. During the initial delay, there is a fixed output of the analog signal corresponding to the standard oxygen concentration 21.0 vol%.

10. Trouble Alarm • The product has a self-inspection function, and the trouble alarm will operate if a problem occurs. • The product will inform the user of the problem details with the display shown in the following table when the trouble alarm operates. •...
11. Maintenance Check and Operation Method 11-1. Daily Inspection and Periodical Inspection • Daily inspections are conducted by the user, while periodical inspections are conducted by your local representative. Frequency Checking item Contents of inspection ▪ The status of lamp (green POWER indicator) is lit.
11-2. Replacement of Sensor Unit WARNING Be sure to turn OFF the indicator unit or signal converter before replacing a sensor unit. Otherwise, they may become a source of ignition. Before turning ON the power supply to the Detector, make sure that the sensor and sensor connector are connected properly.

Turn OFF the power supply to the Detector. Remove the sensor casing cover by rotating it in the direction of the arrow. (See the photograph below on the left.) Pull down the sensor to remove it. (See the photograph below on the right.) Connect the sensor.
11-3. Calibration Method Maintenance Mode CAUTION While in maintenance mode, the external contact does not operate when the concentration of gas reaches or exceeds the alarm set value. The product in maintenance mode maintains the current status while the display shows [ This mode is canceled by repeating the same operation (1 to 4), turning the product OFF, or waiting 8 hours.
Span Rough Adjustment This adjustment mode is used after replacing the sensor or when adjustment cannot be performed with the 21.0 vol% adjustment. CAUTION The external contact may operate during span rough adjustment. Before performing span rough adjustment, set the product to maintenance mode or release the interlocks of the external devices if needed.
21.0 vol% Adjustment ・This span adjustment mode is used in atmospheric air during periodic inspection. WARNING ▪ Always perform the 21.0 vol% adjustment in clean air. If you perform the 21.0 vol% adjustment in a gas atmosphere, the value of oxygen concentration output will be displayed ...

13. Specifications Principle of Galvanic cell detection Sampling method Diffusion type Detection gas O2 (Oxygen) Detection range 0 to 25 vol% concentration Four-digit digital LED display display Alarm set value 18 vol% ±1.0 vol% of the displayed value Alarm accuracy 5 seconds or less to reach 18vol% by coming into contact with oxygen gas having a Alarm delay concentration of 10vol%.
14. Warranty New Cosmos Electric Company Limited (New Cosmos) offers the following as the sole and exclusive limited warranty available to the customer. This warranty is in lieu of, and customer waives, all other warranties of any kind or nature, expressed or implied, including without limitation, any warranty for merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.
15. Detection Principle The galvanic cell sensor consists of noble metal (Pt, Ag) electrode, a base metal (Pb) electrode, and electrolyte. The noble metal electrode contacts the air through a Teflon membrane. Since a potential difference is produced between the two electrodes, the following reaction occurs when a load resistor is connected: O + 4e - 4OH -...
16. Glossary Detector: A unit that detects gas concentration and converts it to electric signals. Diffusion type: A method to detect gas by utilizing convection and diffusion of gas. Explosion proof construction: A totally enclosed structure. When an explosive gas explodes in a container, the container can resist the pressure and prevent the ignition of explosive gases outside of it.
