1. Introduction
SMART P gas detectors are used to detect the presence of combustible (%LFL) and toxic
(ppm) gases in non classified areas. It has been especially designed and tested according
to the European Standard EN 50545-1 for carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide and petrol
vapours detection in underground car park applications.
The catalytic sensor employed for the detection of flammable compounds offers a great
precision and selectivity, thus avoiding false alarms. The electrochemical cells employed for
the detection of toxic gases allow the measurement of toxic compounds at very low con-
centrations.
SMART P gas detectors provide a serial RS485 output. To check the detector’s calibration use
the calibration keypad STS/CKD+ or STS/CKD-OLED.
To protect and increase the stability and accuracy of the gas detector, the microprocessor
present on the internal electric circuit board, is programmed with the following software
algorithms:
³
Self diagnostic procedure to control the detector main operational parts, both hard-
ware and sensing element.
³
Zero point tracking to maintain the zero parameter of the sensor apart from possible
drifts due to thermal or physical variations of the sensor.
³
Digital filter employed in the digital analysis of the analogue values sampled. It is de-
signed to prevent the effects of transients, which may cause instability or incorrect
readings with possible false alarms.
³
Hysteresis cycle applied to the digital outputs to eliminate continuous switching close
to the preset alarm thresholds.
³
Watch-dog for the microprocessor control. In case of intervention, the RS485 output
communication will be interrupted, while the red LED stops blinking and remains on.
