Plug-In H

S Sensor

The sensor is secured within the detector assembly by the housing cap. Through a series 
of chemical and electrical reactions, the sensor produces an electrical output that 
corresponds to the detection range of the transmitter.

Calibration Adapter/Splash Guard

A calibration adapter/splash guard is installed on the H

2

S detector. A fitting at the bottom 

of the calibration adapter/splash guard allows a length of tubing to be connected for 
calibration and routed to a more easily accessible location (near the amplifier junction box 
is optimal for ease of calibration). The calibration adapter/splash guard also protects the 
detector from splashing water or direct water spray.

Amplifier

The amplifier converts the electrical output from the sensor to a 4 to 20 mA signal that 
corresponds to the detection range and transmits the signal to a gas monitoring controller. 
A foam gasket that orients the amplifier and keeps it from rotating is installed on the 
bottom of the amplifier. The amplifier includes the controller terminal strip, detector 
terminal strip, zero pot, span pot, and test points (Figure 3).

Figure 3:  Amplifier Component Location

Controller Terminal Strip

The controller terminal strip is a two position plug-in style terminal strip located at the 
top edge of the amplifier. Use the controller terminal strip to connect the amplifier to a 
controller.

Detector Terminal Strip

The detector terminal strip is a four-point plug-in style terminal strip near the bottom of 
the amplifier. Use the detector terminal strip to connect the H

2

S detector to the amplifier.
