Introduction
Unpacking
All Freedom™ 5000 items are individually packaged. Carefully, open
each box and remove the items. Each package comes with a magnet,
operations manual as well as the transmitter itself. If a sensor was
purchased with the transmitter it will be in a separate container (typically
blue plastic) shipped with the Freedom™ 5000. Accessories such as
calibration adapter, rain shield, duct mount adapter, and flow cell will be
inside the 5000 shipping container.

Freedom™ 5000
The Freedom™ 5000 Instrument is designed to detect the presence of a
specific toxic gas so that human life may be protected from the potential
hazardous conditions created by toxic gas environments.
Each Freedom™ 5000 complete instrument consists of:
A
GasPlus Sensor –
Providing toxic gas, oxygen deficiency, or
hydrogen detection.
A Series 5000 Transmitter –
Providing a Digital display of the
specific Toxic Gas detected in PPM (Parts per Million), PPB
(Parts per Billion), or % v/v (Percent by Volume) depending on the
specific application and sensor used.
A Magnet & Operations Manual –
The magnet is used to interface
with the magnetic reed switches located on the front panel of the
5000.
General Description
The Freedom™ 5000 toxic gas transmitter is a universal loop – powered
microprocessor controlled 4–20 mA device, which allows any of the
GasPlus toxic gas “smart” sensors (excluding the Model 88 combustible
sensor) to be used for the detection of a specific target gas. When
properly installed, non-intrusive operation of the transmitter and an
intrinsically safe design, when used with an approved barrier, permit the
Series 5000 to be operated and calibrated within potentially explosive
environments without having to declassify such areas.
