Page 5: Introduction
Design Introduction Intended Use The Polytron FX is an explosion-proof transmitter for the detection of combustible gases and vapors in ambient air. The transmitter is designed to be installed in permanent locations and is approved for use in hazardous, classified areas (See Section 6.1, Approvals). -
Page 6: Stainless Steel Version
Intended Use Design 1.2.2 Stainless Steel Version The Polytron FX transmitter is housed in an enclosure with 3/4” NPT threaded ports located at the 12 and 6 o’clock positions. Figure 1a: Polytron FX and Polytron FX IR, stainless steel version... -
Page 7: Operation
Polytron FX rests with the end user; if in doubt about placement, consult with Draeger application engineers. Polytron FX is a three-wire device powered by 16 to 30 V DC. Wiring terminals are located on the back of the PCB; pull out the bezel, by grasping the notches on either side of the display with your fingers and pulling up (Figure 2). -
Page 8: Replacing The Sensor
Installing the Sensor Wiring to and from controllers/power supplies must be run through sealed conduit to maintain the explosion-proof status. If only one of the threaded inlet ports is used for external wiring, the other must be sealed with the blanking plug included with the unit (Figure 4). -

If the zero signal has drifted significantly, or a calibration fails: calibrate the DraegerSensor IR first (see manual P/N 9023843), then continue with the calibration procedure for Polytron FX. 4.1.1.1 Zero Calibration • Attach the pressure regulator to the nitrogen (N2) or Zero Air calibration gas cylinder. -
Page 15: Span Calibration
Calibration • Connect the tubing to the barbed fitting of the sensor. • IMPORTANT: Turn the gas on and allow to flow for at least one minute before proceeding. • Scroll through software menu to Zero Adj and tap Enter. The current zero value will be displayed. -

Sensor Principle Operating Principle for DraegerSensor PR and LC Contaminating Gases for DraegerSensor PR and LC Sensor Principle Operating Principle for DraegerSensor PR and LC The DrägerSensor is a transducer for measuring the partial pressure of combustible gases and vapors contained in ambient air. It uses the heat-of- combustion principle. -
Page 18: Operating Principle For Draegersensor Ir
Operating Principle for DraegerSensor IR Operating Principle for DraegerSensor IR The DrägerSensor IR infrared gas sensor is a gas transmitter designed to determine the concentration of gases and vapors in the ambient air. The principle of measurement is based on the concentration-dependent absorption of infrared radiation in measured gases. -
