H2scan hydrogen monitors are specifically designed for the intended purpose and are compatible with the transformer environment. Check the specifications of the GRIDSCAN 6000 to ensure the necessary sensitivity and accuracy match your requirements to detect hydrogen gas at appropriate concentrations.
• Copper set screw lug • Power and communication cable (2 m) 3.1 INSTALLATION TOOLS The following materials are supplied by the end user for installation and operation of the GRIDSCAN 6000. • Adjustable wrench • Container to collect fluid •...
- Five conductors: Three 22 AWG conductors for data and communication ground, two 18 AWG conductors for power. Larger-gauge wires are permissible. H2scan is not responsible for issues arising from the use of cabling and connectors that are not suited for the environment.
3.5 ACCESSORY ATTACHMENT PLATFORM The GRIDSCAN 6000 has a standard-sized Tee slot that has the capability of user customization. The Tee slot can be used to mount a light beacon, run a cable through to the front of the monitor, and other mounting options, dependent on the user application.
The equipment must be installed in an application that can produce an alarm when the ppm level reaches a configurable set point. Do not install the GRIDSCAN 6000 at a location with turbulent liquid flow. When selecting a location, consider how the following variables affect the time required for hydrogen to reach the GRIDSCAN 6000: •...
• Liquid temperature (warmer liquid will absorb higher concentrations of hydrogen) 4.2 MECHANICAL CONNECTION A KF-40 flange fitting is provided for attaching the sensor to a transformer. Mount the GRIDSCAN 6000 by installing the flange adapter on the valve and clamping the GRIDSCAN 6000 to the adapter, capturing the gasket/screen between the flange adapter and the GRIDSCAN 6000.
Figure 6: Clamp Installation 4.3 BLEEDING AIR POST-INSTALLATION The GRIDSCAN 6000 features an integrated bleed valve. Once the GRIDSCAN has been installed onto the valve, any air trapped in the assembly must be removed by following the steps below. 90000215 R0...

7. Fully open transformer valve and check for leaks. If desired, the standard bleed valve may be removed prior to installing the GRIDSCAN 6000 and replaced with an off- the-shelf bleed valve/sample port assembly that can be threaded into the #10-32 bleed valve port. The plug at the top of the bleed valve may be used to plug a #10-32 threaded sample port.

1. Install the cable between the GRIDSCAN 6000 and power/communication equipment. 2. Connect the cable to the power/communication equipment. 3. Connect the cable to the GRIDSCAN 6000. The connector is keyed and will only fit when correctly oriented. The connector to the GRIDSCAN 6000 must be fully tightened to ensure the IP68 rating.
Figure 10: GRIDSCAN 6000 LEDs 5.2 RS-485 The RS-485 input is galvanically isolated inside the GRIDSCAN 6000 to improve noise immunity in harsh electrical environments. When daisy chaining multiple sensors, the GRIDSCAN 6000 has a programmable 120 Ohm termination resistor for RS-485 communications.
The time between collecting this set of data is determined by the customer installation, typically one minute. The minimum time is one second; there is no maximum. The GRIDSCAN 6000 only provides data to SCADA. No alarm setpoints can be implemented in the GRIDSCAN 6000. 5.3 CONFIGURATION Configure the GRIDSCAN 6000 with the ScanH2 Configuration Utility or similar Modbus application.
