Modular design this product helps user have ease installation, operations & maintenance throughout the product life. It has integral mounting plate consisting of four holes on the transmitter body for easy mounting. The transmitter may be fixed directly to a surface on the walls or similar support structure. On activation of the power supply to the transmitter;...
Selecting Transmitter Location: Select the most suitable locations for each transmitter. Several factors should be considered when selecting location to install the transmitter. following general suggestions should considered. • Air current: if there are fans, wind or other sources of air movement, gases may tend to rise or collect in certain areas of a facility.
Mounting Guideline: Modular design of the product simplifies the installation procedure. The Transmitter unit has two electronic circuit boards Viz. main processor board & relay board. Power supply & signal (4 -20 mA) connector is located on the bottom Relay board. NO-C-NC contacts of all the three Relays are provided on the green connectors located on the one side of the bottom board.

4-20mA Loop Installation: Cable Routing: Separate cables are required for each Transmitter. In classified areas, the cable should be in conduit or it should be an Approved hazardous location cable Power Supply: Ensure power supply meets the minimum Requirements of all components of the System.
Power Supply & Signal (4-20mA) cable connections will be on the Right hand side of processor board: After removing the transmitter glass window cover and Top Processor board, go for the power supply & 4-20mA signal wire connections as given below. Locate 3 pin Green connector CN7 on the bottom board.

Gas Alarm conditions & Advice: If the current gas concentration reading meets or exceeds either alarm set points, the transmitter alarm function activates. When the alarm condition no longer exists, the transmitter exits alarm mode and enters normal mode operation. The Oxygen Low and/or High gas alarm set points are user settable for either enrichment and/or deficiency alarm as desired.
Fault Alarm conditions & Advice: In the event of a fault alarm condition, the fault alarm triggers activating the connected field device. The transmitter indicates the type of fault condition occurred. Under the fault alarm condition, the fault alarm is activated. Table: 06 Fault conditions Fault...
Calibration Guidelines: ➢ Calibration accuracy is never better than the calibration gas accuracy. We recommend a premium grade calibration gas. Do not use gas cylinder beyond its expiration date. ➢ Calibrate the sensor after the installation and the new sensor before use.

to shift the cursor to the next position. When none of the digit is blinking, key K2 is used to execute the password. CALIBRAT After entering the correct password (0001), MODE LCD/OLED shows this prompt. It means now it is in calibration mode.
Calibration Diagnostics Protection: If calibration is incomplete, the transmitter automatically returns to normal operation and all previous calibration data is retained. Common cause for the transmitter to refuse calibration or for an incomplete calibration includes the following. Background interfering gas is Combustible &...
Important Notes: The transmitter is required to be calibrated before initial use and regular defined intervals thereafter. addition, calibration procedure should be performed, if any of the conditions occur. 1. The sensor has been replaced. 2. The transmitter has been exposed to gas concentrations at 100% of full scale for more than 5 minutes.
Maintenance: The transmitter requires little maintenance. Occasionally the casing can be wiped with dry cloth. Other maintenance required is bump test, once in a month. To keep the transmitter in good operating condition, perform the following basic maintenance as required. •...
