  • Page 41: Setting The Mx52 Unit Into Service

    REMINDER The handling operations and adjustments described in this chapter must be performed by authorized personnel only, as they are liable to affect detection safety. Once the measuring unit has been switched on, it can be programmed (1), its measuring channels can be programmed (1) according to the detectors used and calibrations can be made on the unit and detectors.

    These recommendations are based on safe work procedures, industry best practises, and regulatory standards to ensure worker safety. Industrial scientific is not responsible for setting safety practices and policies. * For new installations it may be prudent to carry out bump tests frequently at first (perhaps weekly), increasing the time intervals (to, perhaps, monthly or more) as confidence grows with experience in the installation concerned, on the basis of the maintenance record.
  • Page 43 REMARK The authorized wind speed is increased to 4.1 m/s when the detector is fitted with a weather protective device. • Prepare the measuring channel for calibration: Open and swivel the front panel of the MX52 unit. Manually set the channel to be calculated using keys + and - on the MX52 keypad (item D, Fig.
  • Page 44 NOTE For this category of explosive gas detectors, the unit’s display panel indicates 100 DIVISIONS for 100 LEL of an explosive gas. Example: If the reference gas is a 2.5% methane concentration, i.e. 50% LEL of methane, adjust to obtain a display of 50 DIVISIONS.
  • Page 45 CAUTION If the detector and the measuring channel are calibrated at the same time, the detector must be left in normal operating mode but the MX52 unit must be set to calibration mode in order to inhibit the relays. ⇒ Consult the technical manual for the detector concerned. Open the detector (with integrated electronics) in order to gain access to the 4 mA adjustment and sensitivity (20 mA) potentiometers and to the terminals used to check its 4-20 mA output current.

  • Page 46: Ma Output Adjustment For A Measurement Channel

    • Adjust the detector sensitivity: Inject the calibration gas using the gas injection pipe (or a remote calibrating fixed device) in the same conditions as those applicable for the synthetic air (zero adjustment). When the measurement has stabilized (on the local display panel or on the detector internal terminals (current measurement)), act on the detector’s internal sensitivity potentiometer (see the manual for the detector concerned) in order to set the value (on the detector display panel) corresponding to the concentration of the reference gas or the corresponding current (terminals).
