This manual describes only the SIL related safety information for the ULTIMA X5000 to support installations where SIL certification to IEC 61508 is required. For complete information regarding performance, installation, operation, maintenance, safety information, warnings and specifications of the ULTIMA X5000 Gas Monitor, please refer to the associated product manual (P/N 10177361).
The ULTIMA X5000 is capable of communicating with and displaying information for two sensors at a time. The device generates two discrete analog outputs; one for each sensor connected to the transmitter. Each analog output is a standard 4 to 20 mA sourcing output.
Repair or alteration of the device beyond the scope of the product instructions or by anyone other than an authorized MSA service provider could cause the product to fail to perform as designed.
For additional operational information refer to the product instruction manual (P/N 10177361). 3.1. Calibration The ULTIMA X5000 allows the user a method for sensor calibration. This typically includes a zero and span operation with target gas. Refer to the instruction manual for full details on calibration methodology for each sensor type.
4.1. Safety Function The Ultima X5000 detects hydrocarbon, toxic, and oxygen gas atmospheres and provides a 4-20 mA output depending on the concentration in air, see user manual for additional information. See figure 1 for representation of the safety function and non-interfering communications.
The failure rates for the Xcell sensor sections do not include the sensor failure rates, which must be added to obtain the complete metrics. If the relay board option is used the Fault Relay output must be monitored by the logic solver. ULTIMA X5000 Gas Monitor Safety Manual...
