E2638-HFC Rev 21.06.2021 Product description E2638 series detectors-transmitters belong to the PluraSens® family of multifunctional measurement instruments. The instruments utilize gas sensors of various types with excellent repeatability, stability, and long lifetime. E2638 series provides two independent analog outputs OUT1 and OUT2, user-selectable to 4-20 mA or 0-10 V, proportional to gas concentrations.
E2638-HFC Rev 21.06.2021 Operating conditions The device should be used both in a non-hazardous area and in a basic electromagnetic environment, where the latter is defined in EN 61326-1. Avoid strong mechanical shock and vibrations. Avoid corrosive atmosphere and areas highly contaminated with dust, oil mist, etc.
E2638-HFC Rev 21.06.2021 Sensor probe handling The E2638 series devices are available with a remote probe. The remote probe is connected to the main unit with a shielded cable. The default remote probe cable length is 3 m. Wall mount remote probe with fixing clamp (default version), Remote probe with rubber flange and three self-tapping screws (on request) The sensor probes of all types are equipped with a hydrophobic microporous PTFE filter to protect the sensor from dust, dirt, and water drops.
E2638-HFC Rev 21.06.2021 Electrical connections Unscrew four lid screws and detach the lid from the device. Use two M16 cable glands to let in the cables of the power supply and of the external devices. Without turning on the power, plug the power cable, and connect the analog/relay outputs and/or digital interface terminals to the necessary devices according to the relevant connection diagram.

E2638-HFC Rev 21.06.2021 NOTE! The outputs are not galvanically isolated from the external power supply and share a common 0V. Allowed load resistance limits are stated in the Specifications table. To power the instrument from an external power source, connect terminals 0V and +U to the source. If the integrated mains power supply module is used, connect terminals L and N to the mains.
E2638-HFC Rev 21.06.2021 Operation Turn on the power. The instrument warm-up time takes about 1 minute after switching on and the final sensor stabilization time to maximum accuracy takes <60 minutes. The operating status is indicated by the LED on the PCB of the device. The control LED (red) response to different processes is presented in the following table: Mode LED mode...
