GG-NH3

Specifications

Input Power:

 +24 VDC, 350 mA

Detection Principle:

 Electrochemical

Detection Method:

 Diffusion

Gases:

 Ammonia (NH3)

Ranges:

0/100 (standard)

0/250

0/300

0/500

0/1000

Custom ranges available. Call for more information

Output Signal:

 Linear 4/20 mA (max input impedance: 

700 Ohms)

Response Time:

T50 = less than 30 seconds

T90 = less than 60 seconds

Accuracy:

 +/- 5% of full-scale, but dependent on 

calibration gas accuracy and time since last calibration

Zero Drift:

 Less than 0.1% of full-scale per month, 

non-cumulative

Span Drift:

 Application dependent, but generally less 

than 3% per month

Linearity:

 +/- 0.5% of full-scale

Repeatability:

 +/- 1% of full scale

SafeCell Viability Check:

 Automatic electrical viability 

test of the electrochemical cell every 40 seconds.  

Failure of the test results in 0.5 mA output after 6 

hours of continued and consecutive test failures.

Power (green) LED:

 Blinks once per second for 60 

seconds during power-up. If supply voltage is too 

low (<10 VDC) or improperly grounded, green LED 

will blink once per second continuously. Stays steady 

on to indicate power. Blinks twice per second in 

calibration mode (4-minute timeout delay)

Status (amber) LED:

 Blinks once per second if RFI 

(radio frequency interference) is detected

Fault (red) LED:

 Stays on steady if supply voltage is 

too low (<10 VDC)

Wiring Connections:

 3-conductor, shielded, 

stranded, ≥ 20 AWG cable (General Cable C2525A or 

equivalent) up to 1500 ft

Terminal Block Plug (Field Wiring):

 26-12 AWG, 

torque 4.5 lbs-in

Enclosure:

 Injection-molded, NEMA 3RX washdown-

duty, polycarbonate sensor housing with hinged lid 

and captive screw. For non-classified areas. 

Optional 18 GA, NEMA 3RX washdown-duty stainless 

steel enclosure with hinged lid and captive screw. For 

non-classified areas

Temperature Range:

 -50˚F to +122˚F (-46˚C to 

+50˚C)

Humidity Range:

 5% to 100% condensing

Dimensions:

 7.7" high x 6.7: wide x 3.8" deep

Weight:

 3.0 lbs

Certification:

 ETL Listed: Conforms to UL 61010-1 

Certified to CSA C22.2 No. 61010-1
