35-3001-06H-DIL Hydrogen/Oxygen Sample-Draw Detector • 5

Main Circuit Board

The main circuit board includes the detector/amp terminal strip, interconnect terminal strip, oxygen 
sensor terminal strip, pump connector, and flowmeter circuit board connector (see Figure 1).

Detector/Amp Terminal Strip

The detector/amp terminal strip is the upper twelve-point terminal strip in the bottom right corner 
of the main circuit board. Use the detector/amp terminal strip to connect the hydrogen sensor to the 
main circuit board.

NOTE:

The hydrogen sensor is factory-wired to the main circuit board. See the “Installation” 
section on page 8 for all wiring procedures related to the sample-draw detector.

Interconnect Terminal Strip

The interconnect terminal strip is the lower twelve-point terminal strip in the bottom right corner of 
the main circuit board. Use the interconnect terminal strip to connect the sample-draw detector to a 
controller.

Oxygen Sensor Terminal Strip

The oxygen sensor terminal strip is a two-point terminal strip in the upper right corner of the main 
circuit board. Use the oxygen sensor terminal strip to connect the oxygen sensor to the main circuit 
board.

NOTE:

The oxygen sensor is factory-wired to the main circuit board. See the “Installation” 
section on page 8 for all wiring procedures related to the sample-draw detector.

Pump Connector

The pump connector is the two-point connector below the oxygen terminal strip in the upper right 
corner of the main circuit board. Use the pump connector to connect the pump to the main circuit 
board.

NOTE:

The pump is factory-wired to the main circuit board. See “Installation” on page 8 for all 
wiring procedures related to the sample-draw detector.

Flowmeter Circuit Board Connector

The flowmeter circuit board connector is a six-position connector in the upper left corner of the 
main circuit board. Use the flowmeter circuit board connector to connect the flowmeter circuit 
board to the main circuit board. 

NOTE:

The flowmeter circuit board is factory wired to the main circuit board. See “Installation” 
on page 8 
for all wiring procedures related to the sample-draw detector.

Flowmeter Circuit Board

The flowmeter circuit board is mounted to the left side of the main circuit board using standoffs. It 
includes the flowmeter, sensor flow control valve, status LEDs, pressure switch, and pump reset 
switch.

Flowmeter

The flowmeter is mounted to the right side of the flowmeter circuit board. You can see it through 
the window in the door. A ball in the flowmeter column indicates the flow rate to the LEL sensor 
which is the sample flow plus the dilution flow. The oxygen sensor’s flow rate is approximately
