4 How to Use 4-3. Precautions for system designing
- 13 -
Do not install the detector in a place exposed to direct sunlight or sudden changes in the temperature.
When selecting installation points, avoid a place where it is exposed to direct sunlight or radiant heat
(infrared rays emitted from a high-temperature object), and where the temperature changes suddenly.
Condensation may be formed inside the detector, or the detector cannot adjust to sudden changes in the
temperature.
Keep the detector (and its cables) away from noise source devices.
When selecting installation points, avoid a place where high-frequency/high-voltage devices exist.
Do not install the detector in a place where maintenance of the detector cannot be performed or where
handling the detector involves dangers.
Regular maintenance of the detector must be performed.
Do not install the detector in a place where the machinery must be stopped when maintenance is performed
in its inside, where parts of the machinery must be removed to perform maintenance, or where the detector
cannot be removed because tubes or racks, etc. prevent access to it. Do not install the detector in a place
where maintenance involves dangers, for example, near a high-voltage cable.
Do not install the detector in machinery which is not properly grounded.
Before installing the detector in machinery, the machinery must be grounded properly.
Do not install the detector in a place where interference gases exist around it.
The detector must not be installed in a place where interference gases exist around it.
4-3. Precautions for system designing
Introducing protective measures against lightning
If cables are installed outside the factory/plant, or if internal cables are installed in the same duct as the
cables coming from outside the factory/plant, "lightning" will cause problems. Because lightning acts as a
large emission source while cables act as a receiving antenna, devices connected to the cables may be
damaged.
Lightning cannot be prevented. Cables installed in a metal conduit or under the ground cannot be
completely protected from inductive lightning surge caused by lightning. Although complete elimination of
disasters caused by lightning is impossible, the following protective measures can be taken.
WARNING

Do not install the detector in a place where silicone, chloride or sulfide is present consistently.
If the detector is installed in such a place, the sensor life will be shortened significantly due to
poisoning, resulting in a dangerous situation where proper gas detection cannot be performed.
CAUTION

An unstable power supply and noise may cause false alarms.
The descriptions in this section must be reflected on the designing of a system using the
detector.
