This applies only to a screw type terminal connection (Figure 8). 3.5.3 DC Power and Ground Connections The customer must provide primary DC power, unless one of the following General Monitors’ Modules is being used with the S4000TH: ...
Model S4000TH 3.5.4 Analog Signal Connections The S4000TH Intelligent Transmitter provides a 4 to 20 mA output signal. This signal can be sent to a General Monitors readout and relay display module, an industrial analog to digital converter, or logic solver. The 4 to 20 mA signal provides for control room or other locations remote to the S4000TH to display indications of operation and alarm conditions.
Model S4000TH NOTE: Fault relay is normally energized. Relay will change state after power up. WARNING: Contact with PCB components should be avoided to prevent damage by static electricity. All wire connections are made to the Terminal Blocks. WARNING: Relay contacts must be protected against transient and over voltage conditions (Figure 13).
Model S4000TH WARNING: Under NO circumstances should equipment be connected or disconnected when under power. This is contrary to hazardous area regulations and may lead to serious damage to the equipment. Equipment damaged in this manner is not covered under warranty. 3.6 Maintaining the X/P Integrity Some of the factors that influence the explosion-proof integrity of the S4000TH housing are: ...
Model S4000TH 4.0 Operation 4.1 Start-Up Checklist Prior to starting the system, verify the following: Inhibit any external devices, such as trip amplifiers, PLC, or DCS systems. Verify that the optional settings are set for the desired configuration. ...
Model S4000TH Figure 14: Relay Reset The relays can be reset via the remote reset input terminals on TB2. Connect a normally open switch between terminal TB2-7 and TB2-8. Closing the switch momentarily will reset the relays. General Monitors’ explosion-proof switch, P/N 30051- 1 can be used for this purpose.

The display will flash the remaining sensor life for a few seconds. Ensure that the sensor is seeing clean air during this time. Apply the calibration gas concentration to the sensor (50% FS of the desired range of H S.
Model S4000TH First, the energized/de-energized state of the relay is shown by either “En” or “dE” being displayed, respectively. Apply and remove the magnet until the desired state is displayed. After a few seconds the latching/non-latching state of the relay is shown by either “La” or “nL”. Apply and remove the magnet, until the desired state is displayed.
Model S4000TH After a few seconds, the current Data Format for Modbus Channel 1 is displayed. If another data format is to be selected, apply and remove the magnet until the desired data format is displayed. The choices are: 8-N-1 “8n1”, 8-N-2 “8n2”, 8-E-1 “8E1”, or 8-O-1 “8O1”. After a few seconds, the current address for Modbus Channel 1 is displayed.
Model S4000TH The S4000TH HART configuration is compatible with the Emerson 375 Field Communicator and AMS Aware. http://www.emersonprocess.com/ http://www.emersonprocess.com/ams/ 4.6 Gas Check Mode The sensor’s response can be checked without activating external alarms by placing the S4000TH in Gas Check Mode. In this mode, the alarm relays are inhibited and the analog output is fixed at 1.5 mA.
Model S4000TH problems, such as mud collecting on the sensor head, sensors accidentally being painted over, etc. General Monitors recommends that a calibration schedule be established and followed. A logbook should also be kept, showing calibration dates and dates of sensor replacement. 4.7.1 Calibration Procedure If hydrogen sulfide (H S) gas is suspected to be present, it will be necessary to purge the...
Model S4000TH The unit is now calibrated and the new span value has been stored in the non-volatile memory (EEPROM). NOTE: The sensor life figure displayed is that calculated on completion of the last calibration. To determine the current sensor life, calibrate unit and then repeat steps 1 and 2. 4.7.2 Aborting Calibration If calibration is to be aborted and gas has not been applied, wait ninety seconds and reapply the magnet.
Model S4000TH 50% FS of H S of the sensor range. Follow the calibration procedure in Section 4.7. When the display indicates “AC”, break the ampoule by turning the thumbscrew on the side of the breaker bottle clockwise. The display will change to “CP” indicating that the sensor is seeing the gas. When the display reads “CC”, the calibration is complete.
Model S4000TH Place the gas cup over the sensor and initiate the calibration sequence, by placing the magnet over the GM logo on the cover of the unit. When the letters “AC” appear in the display window, remove the magnet and apply the calibration gas (50% of full-scale) by opening the valve on the cylinder.
