The URS20SS detectors are used to detect oxygen excess or deficiency in hazardous
(classified) areas of industrial environments and thermal power stations.
An oxygen excess forms if it leaks in hospitals, laboratories, welding centres and, more
in general, where oxygen is stored.
Oxygen deficiency is an indirect measurement of the presence of other explosive or
asphyxiant
gases that deplete the oxygen in the air.
URS20SS sensors can be used in stand-alone mode with 4...20mA output or with an
optional voltage-free contact relay card having the following four digital outputs:
st
- Pre-alarm, 1
alarm threshold, 2
If there is a gas leakage, the detector compares the measured concentration value with
the threshold limit setpoints and energises the associated relays. Information on the
measured concentration value is always at the 4...20mA output.
To order, simply state the part number: URS20SS.

  • Page 3 Sensors lifetime Sensor average lifetime (see technical characteristics) is referred to a typical usage in a pollution-free environment. Presence of a high concentration of pollutants can shorten the lifetime of the sensing element. Once the detection system starts up, it has to be supplied with energy during all the lifetime of its sensors.
  • Page 4 Electrical Installation CAUTION: Make the area safe and make sure that the device power supply is off before cabling and configuration operations. Install the sensor in compliance with EN 60079-14. The cable gland provided on the housing is used for cable entry. Ground the sensor using the internal grounding system.
  • Page 5 Mechanical installation The control card can be expanded with a relay card inserted into a dedicated connector CN3 with four SPDT relays that will be activated under the following of the optional relay conditions: pre-alarm, 1 threshold alarm 2 threshold alarm and sensor fail, and card relative LED alerts.
  • Page 6 Electrical installation of After mechanically installing the relay card, it is necessary to configure it electrically, the optional relay card selecting the relay operating mode and the type of contact desired on the terminal board (NC or NO). A pair of extractable terminals is available for each relay; the type of contact (NC or Selecting the type of NO) to be associated with them can be selected using the JP1…JP4 jumpers.
