Technical Data
Measuring other gases and vapours
The transmitter Polytron Ex (83 17 517) with Ex-sensor PR M (68 09 225) has been tested for suitability for detecting the
following gases and vapours in accordance with standards EN 50 054 and EN 50 057:

Test gases with approx. 50 % LEL of the respective substance are available for these substances. In principle, adjustment using a specific test gas will
rule out a measuring error due to sensor sensitivity dispersion.

Column 3: The lower explosion limits (LEL) shown were mostly taken from Annex A to EN 50054:1998. Different lower
explosion limits may apply when setting up the devices at the place of use.
Column 4: In the case of the Polytron Ex calibrated to the substance shown (in column 1), the display in the 0 to 70 % LEL
range varies from the actual concentration of the substance by not more than the value indicated here.
Column 5: Concentration of the reference gas (propane) in air
Column 6: Application of propane at the concentration shown (in column 5) leads to the display indicated here for the
Polytron Ex transmitter calibrated to the substance shown (in column 1).
Example: Polytron Ex, calibrated to benzene, display when 0.51 % by vol. propane is applied: 40 to 61 % LEL.
