Carbon monoxide detector GIC40N
Technical Specifications and User Guide
Stationary electronic device for car-
bon monoxide detection
Part of industrial and commercial de-
tection applications
Use in small and medium-sized boiler
rooms, garages or various warehouses
The purpose of the detectors is to send a signal about the creation of a potentially
dangerous atmosphere for health. They use a heated semiconductor sensor for their
operation, which can react to the presence of many others flammable gases or vapors.
However, a special sensor control procedure achieves high sensitivity to CO with
reduced effect of other gases.
Detectors can be used individually or in groups of several pieces. Each detector
is separate unit requiring 12V or 24V DC power supply and its output is a two-state
signal showing whether the set concentration is, or is not exceeded. The detector
contains three separate outputs allowing monitoring up to three different concen-
tration levels. The output element for all levels is switching transistor with open
collector and indicators signaling exceeding the set level. Adjustment elements are
located on the electronics board, which allow selection of the desired level monitored
concentrations and control some properties of the detector. The user can thus select
the idle status of the output signal, its delay or the memory function for one of the
outputs.
GIC40N is ready to be fastened with screws to the designated place and it is
assumed to be regular on-the-spot checks.

    Certificate Usage Limitations GIC40N detectors are designed to detect the presence of CO in a standard at- mosphere. We do not guarantee correct detection at low or high oxygen concent- ration. The use of the device in an environment where there may be special chemical substances, e.g.
  • Page 3: Detector Location

    Function description GIC40N detector uses a heated semiconductor sensor to detect gas. These sensors are not selective, they react in the presence of various flammable substances in the air. In order to achieve high sensitivity to CO and reducing the influence of other substances, the sensor is controlled in periodic cycles and is additionally inserted in front of the active layer carbon filter suppressing the effect of organic substances.

    GIC40N – Technical Specifications and User Guide Detector power supply The detector can be supplied with a voltage of 12 V = or 24 V =. There is no need to do any adjustments for to supply 12 V and the detector can be connected directly.
  • Page 5 GIC40N – Technical Specifications and User Guide There are 2 more fault loop terminals located on the electronics board. The switching element here is the contact relay. It is not necessary to observe the polarity of the current flowing in the loop. The fault (disconnection of L1 and L2) is signaled by the yellow LED.
  • Page 6 GIC40N – Technical Specifications and User Guide The range of the whole trimmer corresponds to a concentration of 0 to 250 ppm. When divided into 10 divisions, 1 division corresponds approximately a concent- ration of 25 ppm. In the case of both jumpers T and G short, the concentration of I and II is the same.

    GIC40N – Technical Specifications and User Guide Connection examples The following figure shows an example of a simple assembly for monitoring two (or more) different places. Two (or there may be more) detectors are used together with the NZ34 power supply. Four signal wires from detectors (+ 12V, GND, II and III) are connected in parallel.
  • Page 8 GIC40N – Technical Specifications and User Guide Another example is the connection of a detector to a control system that requires potential free switching inputs. The detector is powered from a 24V= source. Relays with a 24V coil are connected to its outputs. Relay coil is always bridged by a protection diode.

    This check determines whether the detector responds to the presence of CO in the air. For inspection can be used a test ampule with a smoke stick that is supplied to inspect any new J.T.O. System, s.r.o. CO detector. Take the stick out of the ampule, J.T.O. System, s.r.o., 1. 9. 2020...
  • Page 10: Calibration Procedure

    GIC40N – Technical Specifications and User Guide light it and let it smoke like a cigarette. Move smoking stick in to a distance of about 5 cm so that the rising smoke passes around to the sensor. Within about 30 seconds must activate all detector stages and the system response must follow.
  • Page 11: Troubleshooting

    GIC40N – Technical Specifications and User Guide Procedure using a calibration gas with a concentration of 100 ppm or 150 This mode can be used if the jumpers T and G are open and we have a calibration gas with a concentration of 100 ppm CO, or if only jumper G is short and we have a calibration gas with a concentration of 150 ppm CO.
