(LEL) in air. As determined by application requirements, the SGOES is factory calibrated with one of eight hydrocarbon-based gases (typically methane or propane). Conversion factors are used to correct for gases other than the factory calibration gas.
SGOES Infrared Combustible Gas Detector 820-0006 Operating Manual Principles of Operation Operation is based on selective signal disruption by hydrocarbon molecules. An infrared light source is reflected to a set of optical detectors that simultaneously monitors the infrared power at multiple wavelengths of the infrared spectrum. If no gas is present, the photodetectors will receive all of the power radiated by the IR source.

Cabling entering into and out of the SGOES must utilize connections certified for the hazardous location where the SGOES unit is installed. The cable gland should be able to withstand the pressure of an explosion and prevent the spread of combustion into the hazardous area.
• The nameplates and warning labels are in place. • The external surfaces and joined surfaces of the SGOES casing are free of dents or damage. • Make sure all removable parts are joined to the casing as tightly as possible.
Leak sources include flanges, valves, tubing and connections of the sealed type where seals Sources may either fail or wear. All potential leak sources and SGOES mounting locations are best determined by facility engineers with experience in similar processes. Ventilation &...
An earth/ground point is provided on the outside of the VECTOR Field Control Unit Explosion Proof enclosure. The SGOES must be earth grounded in order to operate properly. The grounding lug is located on the SGOES housing below the HART port.
If installing connection cables in an explosion proof conduit, do not use the same conduit to carry wiring for any other purpose or equipment. • If installing the SGOES in a hazardous area, armored cabling is required for the connections to the SGOES •...

Caution: All cable/conduit entries must be sealed with an appropriate and certified sealing plug and cable gland. The use of industrial grade, armored field cable is recommended. If installing the SGOES in a hazardous area, armored cabling is required. Page 15...
Verify that the enclosure has been connected to an earth/ground. • If using a SGOES in conjunction with a Field Control Unit such as the SSS- 903 or VECTOR, verify that the connections between the SGOES and the Field Control Unit is secure and functional.
Commander Figure 5-1: Main ESP Commander Form On the Devices list of the main ESP Commander form, double click on the sensor to be calibrated (in this case, the SGOES). This will open the form for the selected sensor. Figure 5-2: SGOES Form Note the calibrate panel in the upper left quadrant of the form.

Magnetic field calibration can only be performed with the same calibration gas (type and concentration) used to establish the factory settings for the detector. Standard gases used to establish factory setting for the SGOES detectors are methane and propane. Prior to magnetic field calibration, determine the proper calibration gas and concentration.

Apply the magnetic wand to the ESP logo and remove. The LED status light will appear SOLID GREEN. This indicates that the SGOES detector is now in operational mode and that the output signals are enabled. Replace the weatherproof protective cover on the detector.
The SGOES does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Any repair of the SGOES should be performed by ESP Safety personnel. Any attempt to repair or service the SGOES by unauthorized personnel will void the product warranty. Page 22...
• Performance test. Maintenance Activities The SGOES needs very little routine maintenance; but periodic checks for proper system function and calibration are strongly advised. The frequency of these checks should be determined by the specific installation. Although the fault-detection circuitry continuously monitors for various problems, it does not monitor external response equipment or wiring.
8.0 Warranties ESP Safety, Inc. (“ESP”) warrants the SGOES to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service for a period of five (5) years, beginning on the date of shipment to the buyer. This warranty extends only to the sale of new and unused products to the original buyer.
