Page 7: Description
2 Description 2 Description 2.1 Display The ULTIMA X5000 utilizes an Organic LED (OLED) display which is capable of being seen from a distance of up to 50 ft (15 m) depending on conditions. The OLED display provides clear and crisp information in a variety of languages. The gas reading gauge, which wraps around the live reading area, mimics the reading as a percent of full scale and is also used as a progress bar during operations which require a countdown. Figure 1 OLED Display In addition to the OLED display, the ULTIMA X5000 also employs green, yellow and red LEDs on the side and lower middle of its face. These are used to signal normal operating conditions, fault conditions and alarm conditions. The ULTIMA X5000 will go into “Eco-Mode” after 3 minutes of no interaction and if not in an alarm condition. While in Eco- Mode, the main display will power down and the status LED's will remain illuminated to determine that the device is not in an alarm condition. The OLED display can be powered up by touching either of the two EZ touch buttons on the front display. 2.2 No Tool Interface The ULTIMA X5000 does not require any tools or third party devices to change settings, reset alarms or perform any maintenance feature.

Page 9: Xcell Sensors Optimized For Fixed Gas Applications
Using patented pulse check technology and proprietary Adaptive Environmental Compensation (AEC) algorithms, all XCell sensors with TruCal verify operation by actively adjusting the sensor output for changes in sensitivity. Some XCell sensors with TruCal also include Diffusion Supervision, which monitors the sensor inlet for obstructions that could prevent gas from reaching the sensor. Every six hours, an electrical pulse stimulates the XCell sensor similar to having actual calibration gas applied, providing a snapshot of the sensor’s sensitivity at the time of the pulse. Using this sensitivity snapshot, the sensor can diagnose sensor failures like electrode poisoning, electrolyte leaking, or electrical connectivity issues. AEC uses the sensitivity snapshots provided by the pulse check to adjust sensor output, compensating for environmental impacts on sensor accuracy. If the AEC adjustment is greater than expected based on typical environmental impact variations, the transmitter LED’s will slowly flash GREEN, alerting users that the sensor should be calibrated to reset the AEC cycle. Users can also enable a Calibration Alert function that will send a milli-amp signal on the analog output to the control room. The result is a sensor that actively self-monitors for operation and accuracy, with far fewer manual calibrations. Diffusion supervision actively monitors the sensor inlet for obstructions. If an obstruction is detected, the sensor will go into a fault mode to alert users and the control room that it is not seeing gas due to an obstruction. Objects residing directly on or in the sensor inlet that result in a significant impact to the gas path are very likely to be detected by Diffusion Supervision. Examples include paint, tape, water, and dirt. Small amounts of these materials can be visible on the inlet while not impacting the gas path enough to trigger a Diffusion Supervision Fault. A fault signal will only be sent out when the system determines that the amount of material that has accumulated on or inside the sensor inlet is negatively affecting the gas path. Actual TruCal sensor performance will depend on the application, background gas exposure, and environment. To validate XCell sensors with TruCal, it is recommended that users follow their regular calibration cycle and record the “as found” and “as left” values. This data can be used to extend the time between calibrations depending on the required specification of the application. 2.8 SafeSwap The ULTIMA X5000 comes with patented SafeSwap technology, which allows users to change or replace XCell sensors without needing to power down the instrument. For added convenience, the ULTIMA X5000 comes with Swap Delay enabled by default; a feature that gives users a 2 minute window to change sensors without triggering a fault condition. For more information on SafeSwap and Swap Delay, see 4.2.1 I nstrument Settings. WARNING! • As part of the product certification, it was verified that optional communication functions of this gas detection instrument while operating at the maximum transaction rate do not adversely affect the gas detection operation and Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor...

• The ULTIMA XIR PLUS Sensor contains no user- or field-serviceable parts and must be returned to the factory for repair. Any attempt to open the sensor will damage the unit and void the warranty. • Exposure to continuous levels of HCN sensor and can result in erroneously low gas readings. This can occur in as little as 30 minutes of exposure. Do not operate in the presence of continuous low level background HCN gas. Use latching alarms to avoid an erroneous alarm clearance. • Sensor sensitivity will recover over the course of several hours once HCN gas is removed. Use an independent instrument to confirm the absense of HCN gas and allow the sensor to return to zero prior to restarting operations. • Use of some accessories are not covered under the performance approval. Contact MSA for details. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. NOTICE When installing the XIR PLUS sensor, under no circumstances should a pry-bar be applied to the two legs that support the unit's reflectors during installation or removal of the sensor.

• Mount transmitter or junction box using appropriate mounting hardware • Confirm free air flow around the sensor 3.4 Mounting WARNING! Refer to manual addendum (P/N 10182779) for Certification Information before installation. Some toxic gases are provided in a fritless sensor housing. The fritless sensor housing is labeled as Div 2 or Zone 2 and is approved for Div 2 or Zone 2 installations only. The protection method is Nonincendive or Type n respectively. Ensure all components are approved for the wiring method being used and in accordance with the National Electrical Code of the country of use, any applicable local regulations, this manual and the addendum to the manual. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. 3.4.1 Sensor Mounting Location The best location for the transmitter and the sensor may not be the same location. Sensors should be placed in a location where a gas leak is most likely to be detected. When the best sensor placement would not allow the transmitter display to be easily viewed or accessed, a remote junction box can be used to mount the sensor remotely from the transmitter, allowing both to be installed in the optimum location. Two main factors should be considered when choosing a sensor location. The first is the density of the target gas relative to the air. Gases, such as propane, that are heavier than air should be placed near ground level while gases that are lighter than air should be placed above potential leak sources. Optimum sensor placement will depend on the surrounding processing equipment, such as pipes, valves, or turbines. MSA offers a gas and flame mapping service that systematically evaluates potential sources of leaks and recommends detector quantity and placement to create the most effective detection system. 3.4.2 Transmitter Mounting Location The transmitter display should be mounted so that the screen is visible and easily accessed after installation. The electronics assembly inside the metal enclosure can be repositioned in any of the four self-aligning interior holes to ensure the display is properly oriented and to provide maximum flexibility for using conduit entries.

Page 15 Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. Sensor orientation will depend on the sensor type. If mounting an ULTIMA XIR PLUS sensor, whether locally on the transmitter or via remote junction box, the sensor should be mounted horizontally. If the ULTIMA XIR PLUS sensor is not mounted horizontally, the sensor will be prone to more frequent beam blocking issues due to accumulated dust and condensation on the surface of the ULTIMA XIR PLUS sensor. Figure 9 shows the correct and incorrect mounting orientations for the ULTIMA XIR PLUS. Figure 9 Correct and Incorrect Mounting Orientations for ULTIMA XIR PLUS Sensor All other sensors including electrochemical, combustible catalytic bead, and oxygen sensors should be mounted vertically, with the gas inlet pointed downward. If the sensor is not mounted with the gas inlet facing down, it is more likely to become clogged with particulate matter or liquids. Figure 10 shows the correct and incorrect mounting orientation for digital sensors. Figure 10 Correct and Incorrect Mounting Orientation for Digital Sensors 3.4.4 Connecting Sensor to Transmitter Housing or Remote Junction Box Sensors are not shipped attached to the main enclosure or junction box.

Reference Figure 3 for component overview. Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor...
Page 24 The Ultima X5000 was designed to be easily retrofitted with existing UltimaX wiring. When replacing an existing UltimaX with the equivalent X5000 sensor technology, the following items need to be checked in order for the X5000 to operate: • Wire gauge needs to be 18-14 AWG • Sufficient power must be supplied to the X5000 in accordance with the maximum wire lengths (see tables 1-6). If these requirements are met, performance of the X5000 should meet the noise immunity standard equivalent of the UltimaX using the existing wiring; However, the installation may not meet the latest EMC EN50270 noise immunity standard that the X5000 meets with the grounding and wiring scheme as indicated in I/O drawing SK3015-1051. 3.6.3 Electrical Hardware Requirements Braided shielded, twisted pair, instrument quality wire or cable should be used to minimize the possibility of noise interference and contact with other voltages. Selection of shielded cable must comply with local requirements. Conduit, in addition to braided shielded wire, may also be needed in areas where large amounts of electrical noise is expected. All cable shields should be terminated to earth ground at one end only. The ULTIMA X5000’s (RED) power connector terminals can accommodate up to 14 AWG (2.08 mm ). Four conductors are also required for the ULTIMA X5000 remote junction boxes. Incoming power and signal cables should be a braided shield cable such as Alpha Wire 3248 or equivalent. The braided shield must be terminated to the instrument housing with a 360 degree connection to earth ground as shown in Figure 29 or alternatively, the earth ground at the user’s power source location. An external Class 2 power supply is required to supply 11-30 VDC to the ULTIMA X5000. Incoming power and signal cables should be a braided shield cable such as Alpha Wire 3248 or equivalent 3.6.4 Power Load Requirements and Maximum Mounting Distances Consider future needs when selecting cable size and power supply. The maximum distance between the X5000 transmitter and the power supply depends on the sensor configuration (sensing technology and one or two sensors), wire gauge, and the power supply voltage. The tables below outline the maximum transmitter mounting distances. First determine if the sensor(s) will be locally or remotely mounted. Then choose sensor type(s). The corresponding nominal maximum power and mounting distances by wire gauge are shown. Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor...

Page 34 Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. Relay Connections to Inductive Loads If connecting the relays to motors, fluorescent lighting, or other inductive loads, it is necessary to suppress any sparks or inductive feedback that may occur at the relay contact. These effects may render the unit inoperative. ® One way to reduce these effects is to install a Quencharc (P/N 630413) across the load being switched. Fault Relay Wiring and Configurations The Fault Relay state in non-fault operating condition is Energized and terminal connections are supplied for Normally Closed and Normally Open. The energized fault relay setting provides an electrical path for fail-safe relay operation. In the event of any failure, including loss of power, the relay will change to the de-energized state to indicate a fault condition. The Fault Relay state cannot be reconfigured. Relay Energy State and Terminal Connections The ULTIMA X5000 relays can be selected as energized or de-energized on the device. The default configuration is the De- Energized state. The preferred relay energy state should be determined before making connections. Table 9 shows the terminal connections by energy state and is applicable to both relay 1 and relay 2.

Scroll and select Disable Sensor. Only one sensor can be disabled at a time. The transmitter will not allow both sensor positions to be disabled simultaneously. The ULTIMA X5000 only allows a sensor to be disabled after the transmitter has gone into Sensor Missing fault. Diffusion Supervision Diffusion supervision actively monitors the sensor inlet for obstructions. If an obstruction is detected, the sensor will go into a fault mode to alert users and the control room that it is not seeing gas due to an obstruction. Objects residing directly on or in the sensor inlet that result in a significant impact to the gas path are very likely to be detected by Diffusion Supervision. Examples include paint, tape, water, and dirt. Small amounts of these materials can be visible on the inlet while not impacting the gas path enough to trigger a Diffusion Supervision Fault. A fault signal will only be sent out when the system determines that the amount of material that has accumulated on or inside the sensor inlet is negatively affecting the gas path. Even if a Diffusion Supervision Fault has not been triggered, it is good practice to clear any foreign material from the sensor inlet if any is observed while inspecting the sensor. To enable or disable Diffusion Supervision: 1. Scroll to Settings and select it. 2. Select Sensor. 3. Scroll and select Diffusion Supervision. 4. Scroll and select Enable or Disable. 5.

Use → to go back to the main menu. 4.3.1 Life and Health - XCell H S and CO Sensors with TruCal Only The Life and Health information reports the general health of the sensor. XCell sensors with TruCal (Hydrogen Sulfide and Carbon Monoxide) calculate current sensor sensitivity using automated pulse checks. The pulse stimulates the sensor with a response similar to having actual calibration gas applied. The stimulated response is compared to the last calibration and will make adjustments to sensitivity to match the last calibration. When the required adjustment is greater than the accuracy of the algorithm’s adjustment, the sensor will call for a calibration. All digital sensors, including catalytic bead and oxygen, will show life health status as 'Good' or 'Fair' with the following calculation: Good condition occurs when the current calibrated span sensitivity is greater than 50% of the way between the initial calibration sensitivity and the end-of-life span sensitivity. Fair condition occurs when the current calibrated span sensitivity is less than 50% of the way from the initial calibration sensitivity and the end of life span sensitivity. NOTICE Using expired calibration gas or the incorrect calibration gas can result in a premature "Fair" status. 5 Calibration Calibration is the process of applying a known quantity of gas to the transmitter so that the transmitter can adjust the precision and accuracy of the measurements made in normal operating mode. This process ensures that gas measurements are as accurate as possible. Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor...

Page 63: Calibration Frequency
Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. 5.3.1 Calibration Frequency for XCell Sensors with TruCal and Diffusion Supervision (H S & CO only) Sensors with TruCal technology will adjust sensitivity without any manual intervention or calibration, unless called for by the sensor. If the adjusted sensitivity from TruCal deviates too far from the last gas calibration sensitivity, the sensor will recommend or, in extreme cases, require a calibration. When a calibration is recommended, the transmitter LED status indicators slowly pulse green. U sers can also enable a Calibration Alert function that will send a milli-amp signal on the analog output to the control room when a calibration is recommended. When a calibration is required, the status LEDs will flash yellow and the transmitter will go into a Calibration Required Fault. With Diffusion Supervision enabled, the sensors also actively monitor the sensor inlet for obstructions and initiates a fault if the gas diffusion path becomes obstructed. With Diffusion Supervision and Calibration Alert enabled, the time between scheduled calibrations can be extended to 24 months. If calibration and/or Diffusion Supervision are disabled, follow the calibration frequency recommendations set forth in 5.3.2 Calibration Frequency for XCell Sensors with TruCal without Diffusion Supervision (H2S & CO only). 5.3.2 Calibration Frequency for XCell Sensors with TruCal without Diffusion Supervision (H S & CO only) Sensors with TruCal technology will adjust sensitivity without any manual intervention or calibration, unless called for by the sensor. If the adjusted sensitivity from TruCal deviates too far from the last gas calibration sensitivity, the sensor will recommend or, in extreme cases, require a calibration. When a calibration is recommended, the transmitter LED status indicators slowly pulse green. Users can also enable a Calibration Alert function that will send a milli-amp signal on the analog output to the control room when a calibration is recommended. When a calibration is required, the status LEDs will flash yellow and the transmitter will go into a Calibration Required Fault. Without Diffusion Supervision, regular calibration of the sensor must still be conducted to confirm the sensor inlet is not obstructed. Actual TruCal sensor performance will depend on the application, background gas exposure, and environment. To validate XCell sensors with TruCal, it is recommended that users follow their regular calibration cycle and record the “as found” and “as left” values, tracking the percent adjustment over time. Once a baseline is established, the calibration intervals can be extended until the percent adjustment is greater than the expected accuracy of the sensor. 5.4 Calibration Types: Zero vs. Span The ULTIMA X5000 has two types of calibration: Zero and Span calibration. Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor...
Page 64: How To Zero Calibrate Xcell Sensors
5 Calibration Zero Calibration resets the baseline level reading to zero. If the target gas is suspected to be occasionally present, it is best to also use a zero gas cylinder during the zero calibration. If the target gas is not present in the atmosphere, an additional calibration cylinder is not required. The "Calibrate" option involves first applying a zero gas followed by the span gas. The span gas is a known concentration of gas which adjusts the accuracy and precision of the transmitter to the known value; this is referred to as the “Span Value. See Figure 41 . Figure 41 Calibration Curve The Sensor Span Value in the device menu should be the same as the concentration listed on the calibration gas cylinder; unless an LEL simulant gas is being used. The XIR Plus sensor can be calibrated to a wide variety of gas compounds using either 0.1 % Propane, 0.6 % Propane, or 2.5 % Methane and MSA's gas table. See Table 21 for a complete list of gas compounds and corresponding tables and span values. 5.5 How to Zero Calibrate XCell Sensors NOTICE If a password is enabled, you will not be able to proceed with the calibration without the password. To abort, press either button on the touchscreen or mobile application at any time during the zero calibration. In the event that a calibration cannot be completed, the user can acknowledge the FAIL by placing one finger over each of the EZ touch buttons and holding for 1 second before releasing. The unit will revert to the settings of the last successful calibration. WARNING! The regulator used with the zero gas cylinder should not be the same as the regulator used for the span gas. The span gas regulator can be contaminated with the target gas over time, and thus raise the detection baseline and make the sensor less sensitive to the target gas. Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor...

If PASS displays, the procedure is complete. User may record the as found and as left values as an indication of the amount of sensor correction performed during the calibration. If FAIL displays, the procedure was unsuccessful. 10. Remove the zero calibration equipment from the device, including the Sensor Guard and Calibration Cap. Sensors with TruCal and have Diffusion Supervision enabled can go into Diffusion Supervision Fault if the green calibration cap is left on after completing a zero calibration. WARNING! The green calibration cap must be removed from the sensor after a zero calibration. Failure to do so could restrict gas flow to the sensor and result in erroneously low readings. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. 5.6 How to Calibrate XCell Sensors (See 5.7 H ow to Calibrate an Oxygen XCell Sensor for calibrating oxygen sensors.)

Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. NOTICE If the calibration cap cannot be used (such as for a remote sensor application), ambient wind conditions must be minimized during calibration to avoid a calibration with increased sensitivity. The XIR PLUS sensor can be calibrated to a variety of other target gases. Calibrating to a different calibration gas will align the sensor's accuracy to that gas. Refer to 9 A ppendix: Calibration Guide for Additional Gases for calibration settings. Note that the XIR PLUS sensor is a general hydrocarbon sensor, and calibrating to another gas will not prevent it from seeing other hydrocarbons in the atmosphere. 5.9 XCell Catalytic Bead LOC Over Range Catalytic bead sensors require the presence of oxygen in order to sense combustible gas. In the event of very large combustible gas leaks that exceed 100 % LEL, enough oxygen can be displaced so that the sensor's response to gas is no longer proportional to the calibration profile. The XCell catalytic bead has a locking fail safe mechanism that prevents the false reporting of a safe condition while the % LEL concentration is still above 100 % LEL. When the gas concentration exceeds 100 % LEL, the sensor will go into LOC over range. To clear the LOC over rage, the user needs to acknowledge and calibrate the sensor. To acknowledge LOC over range, place one finger over each of the EZ touch buttons and hold for 1 second before releasing. This will allow a recalibration of the sensor to clear the LOC condition. WARNING! Ensure that the area has been cleared of gas before acknowledging the LOC Over Range and recalibrating the sensor. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. 5.10 Calibration Confirmation and As Found/As Left Values The ULTIMA X5000 Gas Monitor records the date of the last successful calibration as well as the As Found/As Left values. This date can then be displayed on the OLED display under the Status Menu. Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor...
Page 68: Maintenance
• Avoid using excessive amounts of water or alcohol in the cleaning procedure, and inspect the window to ensure that the entire surface is clean. • The device will go into a “Low Signal” fault during cleaning with an analog output to 2.0 mA. To clean the XIR PLUS sensor: 1. Remove the Sensor Guard. 2. Place an opaque object (piece of paper, cardboard, etc.) between the light source window and the mirror to completely obscure the light path for two to three seconds. The ULTIMA X5000 analog output is in a fault condition while sensor is partially blocked. The display will indicate “Low Signal'’. While in “Low Signal” fault, the sensor will not respond to the presence of gas. 3. When cleaning is done and the objects are removed from the sensor window, the device returns to normal operation. If water or isopropyl alcohol was used, allow the device to operate for 15 minutes to completely dry before replacing the sensor guard and continuing to monitor for combustible gas. 4. Replace the sensor guard or flow cap. Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor...
Page 69: Replacing An Xcell Sensor
• Do not disassemble the sensor assembly. The sensing element inside may contain hazardous material. • Handle the sensor carefully; the electrochemical version is a sealed unit which contains a corrosive electrolyte. • Any leaked electrolyte that comes in contact with skin, eyes or clothes can cause burns. • If any contact with the electrolyte does occur, immediately rinse with a large quantity of water. On contact with the eyes, rinse thoroughly with water for 15 minutes and consult a doctor. • Do not install a leaking sensor in the sensing head assembly. The leaking sensor must be disposed of in accordance with local, state and federal laws. • As part of the product certification, it was verified that optional communication functions of this gas detection instrument while operating at the maximum transaction rate do not adversely affect the gas detection operation and functions of the instrument. The product certification, however, does not include or imply approval of the SafeSwap feature, communications protocol or functions provided by the software of this instrument or of the communications apparatus and software connected to this instrument. • Follow the warnings below when removing or replacing sensors. Reference 2.10 for component overview. ○ Never remove or replace a Sensor Body Assembly or an Ultima XIR Plus while under power or when explosive hazards are present. ○ Confirm that the area is free of explosive hazards before removing or replacing an XCell Sensor under power. ○ To remove an XCell Sensor, unscrew XCell Sensor three full turns, wait 10 seconds, and then remove the XCell Sensor completely. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor...
Page 70 6 Maintenance Identify the sensor assembly needed via the A-5K-SENS code on the interior sensor label and obtain the appropriate sensor assembly. Screw the replacement XCell sensor onto the Sensor Body Assembly, ensuring that the XCell sensor mates flush against the bottom edge of the Sensor Body Assembly. Figure 42 Removing the XCell Sensor Figure 43 Digital Sensor - Position of Labels Alarm set points, span value, full scale limit and alarm direction will not change when replacing a sensor with the same gas and range. Alarm set points, span value, full scale limit and alarm direction will change to the new sensor settings when replacing a sensor with a different gas and/or range. The ULTIMA X5000 Gas Monitor is shipped with the Sensor Swap Delay enabled. This means that the 4-20 mA output signal and the FAULT relay will hold off a fault indication for two minutes before the missing sensor indication is displayed on the device. This setting allows the operator to exchange sensor modules without a FAULT indication. See Swap Delay in 4.2.1 I nstrument Settings for more details. It is recommended that all other maintenance be performed at an MSA factory-authorized service center. Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor...
Page 71: Clearing A Blockage
3. Ensure Sensor is fully mated to the Sensor Body Assembly. 4. Attempt to recalibrate the Sensor. 5. Disable Diffusion Supervision or replace the Sensor. First, with the sensor still installed, visually inspect the sensor to see if any objects are covering the gas inlet and remove them. Example objects may include tape or the green Calibration Cap. Next, check to make sure that there is no foreign material stuck to the frit. If any material is found, gently remove it while considering any hazards that may arise from such an action, like the accumulation of a static charge, and taking the necessary steps to avoid them. Take care to ensure that the frit is not damaged during the cleaning process. DO NOT use water or liquids to try to clean the frit. The frit acts like a sponge and will retain liquids, which will keep the gas path blocked. Figure 44 Frit Location WARNING! The sensor relies on the frit as a part of its Flameproof/Explosion proof approval. If the frit is damaged while attempting to clean it, immediately remove power from the device. Ensure the area is free of a hazardous atmosphere, then follow all steps as outlined in this manual to properly replace the sensor. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. If no material is visible, the frit may still be blocked by a liquid which has absorbed into the frit. Once absorbed, liquids are very difficult to remove. For these situations, relying on natural evaporation is recommended. Due to the time it can take for liquids to evaporate sufficiently from the frit, users may want to consider swapping out the affected sensor with one that is known to be clear. Placing absorbent material against the outer surface of the frit can help accelerate this process. If a sensor is in Diffusion Supervision Fault, the device will still allow the user to attempt to calibrate the sensor. In the rare event that a sensor calibration is successful, but the Diffusion Supervision system continues to detect a blockage in the gas path, the Diffusion Supervision Fault will return in approximately 24 hours. In this scenario, there is likely an environmental factor affecting the Diffusion Supervision detection. Provided the sensor can successfully calibrate, the sensor is still Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor...
