OLCT 20 GAS DETECTOR USER MANUAL Description Overview OLC 20 gas detectors are catalytic type detectors intended for the detection of combustible gases. They are flameproof certified (OLC 20d). OLCT 20 gas detectors are 4-20 mA transmitters and are intended for the measurement of combustible and toxic gases and oxygen.
OLCT 20 GAS DETECTOR USER MANUAL Mechanical installation of the various versions Please ensure you read the paragraph: Special Specifications for use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres in Accordance with European Directive ATEX 2014/34/EU.

OLCT 20 GAS DETECTOR USER MANUAL Installation It is recommended that you read the relevant guides for installing, operating and maintaining flammable gas and oxygen detectors (EN 60079-29-2) and toxic detectors (EN 45544-4). Regulations and operating conditions • Installation must comply with current edition of EN 60079-14 for systems installed in explosive atmospheres and eventually with any local or national additional requirements that may apply in the country of installation.
OLCT 20 GAS DETECTOR USER MANUAL Mounting the detector The detector must be installed with the detection sensor pointing downwards. For combustible gas detectors, tilting the device more than 45° past vertical can lead to imprecise readings. Despite its high degree of protection (IP66), it may be necessary to protect the detector against adverse weather conditions (rain, dust, direct sunlight, etc.) and from direct spraying with cleaning or maintenance products (causing soiling of the detection sensor).
Calibration frequency will depend on the results of these tests (moisture, temperature, dust, etc.); however, the device should be calibrated at least once per year. The site manager is responsible for implementing the safety procedures at the site. TELEDYNE OLDHAM SIMTRONICS is not responsible for implementing safety procedures.
Set the measuring channel to the calibration position (alarm relays inhibited) Apply the calibration cup and perform the calibration in accordance with the procedure defined during the training course provided by TELEDYNE OLDHAM SIMTRONICS or by an TELEDYNE OLDHAM SIMTRONICS’s authorized person Proceed the zero and span Set the measuring channel back to the "normal"...

OLCT 20 GAS DETECTOR USER MANUAL Special instructions for use in explosive atmospheres and fonctional safety General comments OLCT 20 gas detectors comply with the requirements of ATEX 2014/34/UE European Directive relating to explosive Dust and Gas atmospheres. The information given in the following sections should be respected and taken into account by the manager of the site where the equipment is installed.
USER MANUAL Threaded joints Threaded joints have different values than those specified in EN60079-1 standard. TELEDYNE OLDHAM SIMTRONICS does not allow the repair of the threaded joints and shall not be held responsible for any damage to the equipment or for any physical injury or death resulting from any product modification.
The curve below gives the transmitter output current as a function of gas concentration. In the event that the user connects the transmitter to a non- TELEDYNE OLDHAM SIMTRONICS central controller, the user must ensure that the transfer curve is compatible with the equipment's input characteristics to correctly interpret the data coming in from the transmitter.
