Revision D.0

 

 

1.4.4

 

Dry logic inputs (yellow ring) 

 

Pin 2: logic input for alarm transfer 

 

Pin 5: logic input for alarm acknowledgement 

 

Pin 7: common ground 

 

Unused connectors must be equipped with their 
protective cap. 

See details on pages 12 and 41.

1.4.5

 

Intrinsic safety parameters 

 

Alarm relay output: dry relay contact, Ui = 30 V, Ii = 150 mA, no L or C condition 

 

Power supply for trickle charging: Ui = 30 V, Ii = 160 mA, no L or C condition 

 

Dry logic input: Uo = 5 V, Io = 50 mA, Lo = 8 mH, Co = 7 µF

 

The person responsible for the gas monitor must create a Descriptive System 
Document (for intrinsically safe circuits). 

1.5

 

Gas sensors 

The sensors are located on the front of the monitor (Figure  2, ref. 10). They are smart, pre-
calibrated from factory and interchangeable. They are composed of a sensitive element and 
electrical components, including an EEPROM memory in which the sensor characteristics are 
stored (gas type, range, span value, instantaneous, STEL and TWA alarm values, date of 
manufacture, serial number, date of last calibration, span reserve, etc.). The span reserve is 
updated after each calibration and allows the user to gage the optimal time for changing the 
sensor. Sensors must be positioned as indicated in the table above.
