Product Warranty RKI Instruments, Inc. warrants gas alarm equipment sold by us to be free from defects in materials, workmanship, and performance for a period of one year from date of shipment from RKI Instruments, Inc. Any parts found defective within that period will be repaired or replaced, at our option, free of charge.
WARNING: When using the 35-3010RK-04, you must follow the instructions and warnings in this manual to assure proper and safe operation of the 35-3010RK-04 and to minimize the risk of personal injury. Be sure to maintain and periodically calibrate the 35-3010RK-04 as described in this manual.
Four mounting feet are attached to the back of the housing (one at each corner). Use the mounting feet to install the housing to a vertical surface. Use the two conduit hubs on the bottom of the housing to make wiring connections. 2 • 35-3010RK-04 Sample-Draw Detector...
It prevents water and other liquids from contaminating the flow system. Replace the filter when it appears dirty, discolored, or clogged. If a liquid other than water is drawn into the filter, replace the filter as soon as possible. 35-3010RK-04 Sample-Draw Detector • 3...

A small reset button is located in the upper left corner of the main PCB. When a low flow condition occurs, the pump will be shut off. To reset the low flow condition and start the pump again, press and hold the reset switch for about 2 seconds, then release. 35-3010RK-04 Sample-Draw Detector • 7...
Slightly loosen the screw that secures one of the mounting feet to the housing, then rotate the mounting foot 180 degrees (see Figure 4). Tighten the screw that secures the mounting foot to the housing. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the remaining three mounting feet. 8 • 35-3010RK-04 Sample-Draw Detector...
Route the cable or wires in conduit leading from the sample draw detector to the controller. Connect the drain wire to an available chassis ground at the controller. RKI controllers typically have a ground stud that can be used to ground the cable’s drain wire. 35-3010RK-04 Sample-Draw Detector • 9...

Verify a reading of 0% LEL at the controller. If the display reading is 0% LEL, the combustible detector is in normal operation. If the display reading is not 0% LEL, perform a zeroing operation at the controller. See 12 • 35-3010RK-04 Sample-Draw Detector...
Preparing for the response test CAUTION: This procedure may cause alarms at the controller. Take appropriate action to avoid this, such as entering the calibration mode at the controller or disabling alarms. 35-3010RK-04 Sample-Draw Detector • 13...
At the sample draw detector, set the correct flow rate with the bypass valve or flow adjust potentiometer. If you cannot set the correct flow rate, check the sample lines for obstructions or kinks. Verify that the sensor wiring is correct and secure. “Wiring the Sample Draw 14 • 35-3010RK-04 Sample-Draw Detector...
If the fail condition continues, replace the sensor from the problem channel or channels as described later in this section. If the fail condition continues, contact RKI Instruments, Inc. for further instruction. Slow or No Response/Difficult or Unable to Calibrate Symptoms •...
Place the new charcoal filter back into the metal clamp. Adjusting the Low Flow Setting The factory-set low flow setting is 0.6 SCFH (±0.2). To adjust the low flow setting: Use the flow adjust potentiometer (VR1) to set the flow to 0.6 SCFH. 16 • 35-3010RK-04 Sample-Draw Detector...
Screw the regulator into the zero air calibration cylinder. Connect the calibration kit sample tubing to the regulator. The zero reading for the LEL channel is set at the controller. See the controller operator’s manual for instructions to set the zero reading. 35-3010RK-04 Sample-Draw Detector • 17...
NOTE: This procedure describes calibration using a demand flow regulator, a zero air calibration cylinder, and a 3-gas calibration cylinder. Preparing for Calibration CAUTION: This procedure may cause alarms at the controller. Take appropriate action to avoid this, such as entering the calibration mode at the controller. 18 • 35-3010RK-04 Sample-Draw Detector...
Disconnect the sample tubing from the sample draw detector’s inlet line. Unscrew the regulator from the calibration cylinder. NOTE: For convenience, leave the regulator connected to the sample tubing. Returning to Normal Operation Remove the voltmeter leads from the test points. 35-3010RK-04 Sample-Draw Detector • 19...
