    The FGD14 is fitted with two relays, which are linked to user definable alarm set points. The FGD14 may be connected to an interface unit that will allow direct connection to a Sensors The unit can be fitted with a range of sensor modules allowing it to be tailored to individual needs.
  • Page 5: Installation

    Avoid mounting the instrument where it may be subjected to sudden transients in ambient temperature (e.g. above a heater/radiator). Power Supply Options The FGD14 is available with one of two power supply options. 2.2.1 Mains Powered A universal power supply is fitted that operates in the range of 85-265Vac, 47-400 Hz.

    STATUS SCIENTIFIC CONTROLS FGD14 Environmental Monitor Alarm Test The FGD14 is equipped with an alarm test function. During alarm the relays, Leds and sounder will operate, see section 3.4 In order to gain access to the alarm test switch see section 3.1.
  • Page 11: Zero Sensor

    STATUS SCIENTIFIC CONTROLS FGD14 Environmental Monitor 3.3.2 Zero Sensor This is a calibration feature. It allows the instrument to determine the sensor output under zero gas conditions. • Apply target free gas to the sensor inlet and allow enough time for the sensor to respond and all gas to be purged (typically 2 minutes dependent upon flow rate).
  • Page 12: Span Sensor

    STATUS SCIENTIFIC CONTROLS FGD14 Environmental Monitor 3.3.3 Span Sensor This is a calibration feature. It allows the instrument to determine the sensor output when it is exposed to a know concentration of gas. • Apply a known concentration of Hydrocarbon gas (typically 20% LEL pentane) to the sensor inlet and allow enough time for the sensor to respond.
  • Page 13: Set Sensor Fsd

    STATUS SCIENTIFIC CONTROLS FGD14 Environmental Monitor 3.3.5 Set Sensor FSD This option is used to match the sensor’s operating range with the electronics so that over-range conditions can be detected. • Select calibration mode C: 3 (refer to section 3.2) and press ENTER.

    View Engineer/Diagnostics Data This feature is a view-only feature. No configuration changes are possible from within this menu. This information is for the use of Status Scientific Controls. • Select calibration mode C: 9 (refer to section 3.2) and press ENTER.
  • Page 16: Cross Reference

    STATUS SCIENTIFIC CONTROLS FGD14 Environmental Monitor 3.3.11 Cross Reference This option is used to allow the user to calibrate the sensor with a commonly available gas (e.g. methane or propane) but use the unit to detect a different gas (e.g. methanol or acetone etc.).

    STATUS SCIENTIFIC CONTROLS FGD14 Environmental Monitor 3.3.12 Set Relay 1 Mode The unit is fitted with a relay that is operated in conjunction with the alarm level. The user can select if the relay is normally energised, E’ or normally de-energised, ‘d’ when the unit is not in an alarm condition.

    STATUS SCIENTIFIC CONTROLS FGD14 Environmental Monitor 3.3.14 Set Alarm Level 1 • Select calibration mode C: 15 (refer to section 3.2) and press ENTER. • Using the UP and DOWN buttons, adjust the displayed reading so that it matches the desired alarm set point.
  • Page 19: Set Alarm Hysteresis

    STATUS SCIENTIFIC CONTROLS FGD14 Environmental Monitor 3.3.17 Set Alarm Hysteresis Hysteresis is applied during alarm checking to stop the alarm relays chattering when the gas level is at the alarm set point. The hysteresis level is expressed as a percentage of the alarm setting. For example if the alarm setting is 10% vol. CO the hysteresis setting is 1% then the alarm relay would be activated at 10% gas and de-activate at 9.9% gas.

    The GREEN power led on the remote indicator is continuously lit. Alarm Condition If the FGD14 detects gas levels in excess of the preset alarm level, an alarm is raised. This is indicated by: The RED LED on the front panel of the FGD14 flashes and the sounder will be heard.
  • Page 21 If the instrument detects a fault with the sensor or the configuration data, a fault is raised. This is indicated by: The RED LED on the front panel of the FGD14 flashes and the display flashes F xxx, where xxx is a fault code as follows...
