I. DESCRIPTION

1. GENERAL Gas detectors in series 300 are intended for the measurement of levels of toxic and combustible gases and vapours, and of oxygen. They can be used in atmospheres with increasingly severe constraints thanks to the use of robust materials, suitable design and accessory equipment, stainless steel attaching hardware and a corrosion-resistant polyamide housing (IP66). The detectors in series 300 comprise the following items, according to their type and the options selected: • a polyamide housing1 containing an electronic circuit and a display device showing gas concentrations and failures,

• a gas measuring cell (which may be calibrated), • one or two cable inlet glands of various types.

Series 300 can be supplied with a wide range of options and suitable accessory equipment. 2. COMPOSITION OF SERIES 300: GENERAL POINTS

II. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS Please ensure you read the paragraph: Special Specifications for use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres in Accordance with European Directive ATEX 94/9/EC

1. INSTALLATION OF DETECTORS

1.1 General information The measuring cell must be installed face downwards. The detector must be positioned according to the type of gas to be detected: • at a high point if the gas is lighter than air, • at a low point if the gas is heavier than air, • near extraction vents if there is a mechanical ventilating system, • and, in general, in locations where the gas is likely to accumulate. - In spite of its high level of protection (IP66), it may be necessary, in some cases, to protect the detector against adverse weather conditions (such as rain, dust, direct sunlight) or direct splashing with maintenance or cleaning products (which may lead to soiling of the detection cell). - The detector must also be positioned so as to allow access to the measuring cell for replacement, when required. - The detectors must be positioned so as to ensure optimal detection of accumulations of gas in the air.

Factors to be considered when determining the optimal location of the detector:

⇒ Potential sources of vapour and gas emissions ⇒ Chemical and physical data on potential gases and vapours present ⇒ Liquids with low volatility ⇒ Detectors as near as possible to location of leak hazard ⇒ Nature and concentration of gas leaks (high-pressure jet, slow leak, etc.) ⇒ Air movements - Indoors: natural and mechanical ventilation - Outdoors: wind speed and direction ⇒ Effect of temperature ⇒ Detectors to be installed so as to avoid mechanical damage or damage by water during the summer ⇒ Detectors to be positioned so as to allow easy maintenance, if possible ⇒ Installation avoid ing direct sunlight on the display panel as this would cause maintenance problems

17

Check that the maintenance switch (item 1) located on the main circuit is set to the “MES” position (measurement).

2. OUTPUT 4/20 MA OF SERIES CTX 300 For detectors equipped with an electronic system, the 4/20 mA current output will be proportional to the measurement. The current output can be in various states, as follows: • ≤ 1 mA; negative values in case of fault, • = 2 mA in “calibration” position • 4 mA for display of zero, • up to 20 mA for measurement scale, • ≤ 27 mA in case of high values (scale exceeded) Remark: After switching on, it is advisable to check the calibration of the detector if it is not equipped with a precalibrated unit (series CEX 300).

IV. MAINTENANCE

Caution: The adjustments described in this section are to be carried out by authorized, trained personnel only as they can affect the safety of detection.

Gas detection instruments are potential life-saving devices. Recognizing this fact, Industrial Scientific Corporation recommends that a functional “bump” test be performed on every fixed gas-monitoring instruments as part of a regular maintenance program. A functional test is defined as a brief exposure of the detector to a concentration of gas(es) in excess of the lowest alarm set-point for each sensor for the purpose of verifying sensor and alarm operation and is not intended to be a measure of the accuracy of the instrument. Industrial scientific further recommends that a full instrument calibration be performed using a certified concentration(s) of calibration gas(es) quarterly, every 3 months.* Calibrations may be necessary more or less frequently based, for example, on application, field conditions, exposure to gas, sensor technology, and environmental conditions. The frequency of calibration is best determined by company policy or local regulatory agencies. If an instrument fails to operate properly during any functional “bump” test, a full instrument calibration should be performed successfully prior to use. These recommendations are based on safe work procedures, industry best practises, and regulatory standards to ensure worker safety. Industrial scientific is not responsible for setting safety practices and policies. * For new installations it may be prudent to carry out bump tests frequently at first (perhaps weekly), increasing the time intervals (to, perhaps, monthly or more) as confidence grows with experience in the installation concerned, on the basis of the maintenance record.

1. Calibration

1.1 Recommendations Calibration consists in adjustments of the detector zero in pure air and of its sensitivity to a reference gas. The adjustments are performed on the detector or on the measurement data logger (CEX 300), (according to the types and the area). For adjustments (ZERO and SENSITIVITY) on the data logger, see the data logger manual, when required. The following equipment is necessary to calibrate the detector correctly:

- plastic hose to make all the connections (item 1), - pressure gauge - pressure regulating valve for compressed gas cylinders (150 bars), (item 2), - flowmeter, 0 to 60 l/h (item 3), - calibrating pipe (item 4), - a cylinder of reference gas (item 5).

19

The zero adjustment must be performed in air free of gas or, if this is not the case, using a cylinder of clean air, in which case the air must be injected at a flow rate of 60 l/h (checked by a flowmeter). For the adjustment of sensitivity, a commercially available cylinder of reference gas must be used (with a concentration close to the alarm threshold in 21% of oxygen in air or representing at least 30% of the measuring scale). Remark: In the case of certain hazardous gases or gases that are difficult to calibrate, it is MANDATORY that the work must be carried out by a specialized technician from an ISC/OLDHAM branch. Otherwise, another factory precalibrated unit must be used (series CTX). Note : It is important to calibrate the detector with the specified flow rate. This flow rate provides a measurement identical to the gas concentration which will be measured in actual detector operating conditions. If the flow rate of calibrating gas is too high, the actual concentration is under estimated.

1.2 Calibrating the CEX 300 As the CEX 300 essentially consists of a filament type cell and with no electronic circuit, the signal (in mV) is transmitted directly to the measurement data logger. The adjustments are thus made directly on the relevant channel of the data logger. The data logger manual should therefore be consulted.

Then inject the recommended reference gas. (Use the calibration kit and read the recommendations). Wait for the signal to stabilize and adjust the sensitivity according to the reference gas using the sensitivity potentiometer on the cell unit (item 4, Fig. 4). Read the signal on the pins provided for that purpose (item 1, Fig. 3 below) = 1,600 mV at full scale. For example: In the case of a detector in the 300 ppm gas range, you have:

- 0 mV Õ for ZERO - 1,600 mV Õ for 300 ppm

Stop the injection of the reference gas and remove the gas injection pipe. Then wait for and check the zero resetting. (Otherwise, repeat the procedure). Move the maintenance switch back to the “MES” position (measurement), (item 5, Fig. 3).

1.4 Calibrating the CTX 300, OXYGEN type Case No. 1: CTX 300, oxygen type, equipped with a display panel and diodes (LEDs) Carry out the same procedure as that described in paragraph 1 - 3 (CTX 300), but making only, and directly, the sensitivity adjustment in order to read 20.9% O2 on the display panel. Remark: For the purpose of this adjustment, there is not necessarily any need to inject oxygen as it is present in the normal atmosphere. Case No. 2: CTX 300, oxygen pipe, without display panel or diodes (LEDs) Carry out the same procedure as for case number 2 in paragraph 1-3 (CTX 300), but making only, and directly, the sensitivity adjustment in order to read the signal corresponding to 20.9% O2. (See the remark above for case number 1). Value of signal in mV =

- 1,600 mV at full scale = 30% O2 - 1,1115 mV at 20.9% O2 - 0 mV at 0% O2

Remarks: The current transmitted by the CTX 300 detector (toxic gas or oxygen type) to the data logger can be measured on the main circuit by connecting a millivoltmeter to the pins provided for that purpose (see Fig. 5 below):

- for 4 mA Õ read 400 mVDC - for 20 mA Õ read 2 VDC

1.5 Calibrating the CTX 300 SC (semiconductor type) (without display panel or diodes)

The detector is in normal operation, with the switch (item 1, Fig. 6) in the “MES” position (measurement).

Check that the detector is in pure air or, otherwise, inject air (using the calibration kit and complying with the relevant recommendations). Important: It is MANDATORY to use a special kit, called a “humidifier kit” (ref. 6335919) in order to correctly calibrate a detector equipped with a semiconductor type cell.

PROCEDURE FOR UTILIZATION OF HUMIDIFIER KIT

Use a wash bottle (1) and distilled water. (1) Cylindrical polyethylene flask fitted with a nozzle for easy pouring. Remove the lid from the humidifier and inject enough water to saturate the filter paper. Water must not flow inside the humidifier. Reinstall the lid and connect the tubes to the end fittings leading to the flowmeter, the reference gas cylinder and the gas input pipe. Adjust the flow rate to 60 l/h and wait 10 minutes to bleed the humidifier. Connect the gas input pipe to the detector nose and wait at least five minutes for the measurement to stabilize.

Remark : The detector must be supplied with power for at least two hours before making any adjustment.

26

Connect up a millivoltmeter (mV DC gauge) as shown below and make adjustment using potentiometer P5 (item 1, Fig. 8). Then read 880 mV. (This value corresponds to a gas ZERO current of 4 mA). Then inject the recommended reference gas (and see Appendix 2), using the same humidifier kit and following the same procedure as for zero adjustment. Wait for the measurement to stabilize. Use the sensitivity potentiometer (item 2, Fig. 8). Then take a full scale reading, such as: 4,400 mV (corresponding to 20 mA).

I = 4 mA + 16 mA X value of reference gas Measuring range

NB: When taking the reading with the voltmeter as indicated in Figure 3, the following voltages (1) may be read, for example: - For 1 mA = 220 mV - For 4 mA = 880 mV (ZERO) - For 20 mA = 4400 mV (full scale) (1) U = 220 Ω X I (4 to 20 mA) Stop the injection of calibrating gas and check the resetting to 0 (4 mA or 880 mV). Otherwise, repeat the procedure.

2. REPLACING A CELL A cell must be replaced when: - calibration is no longer possible (lack of sensitivity), - following maintenance for a damaged cell and/or significant loss of sensitivity, preventive

maintenance, etc.). Remarks : The existing cell must be replaced with a cell of the same type. (See the chapter on Spare parts list). Then, in the case of a non-calibrated cell (cell of type EXPLO/SC or Vehicle park/CO), a new calibration operation must be carried out.

3. Scrapping of CEX/CTX 300 Concerning the conservation, of the protection and the improvement of the quality of the environment, as well as for the protection of the health of the persons and the careful and rational use of natural resources, CEX/CTX 300 has to be the object of a selective collection for the electronic equipments and cannot be scrapped with the normal domestic waste. The user thus has the obligation to separate the CEX/CTX 300 of the other waste so as to guarantee that it is recycled in a sure way at the environmental level. For more details of the existing sites of collection, contact the local administration or the distributor of this product.

V. CEX300 IS EXPLOSIMETRIC DETECTOR

1. Introduction

The CEX300 IS detector is designed to measure combustible gases in dusty or gaseous explosive atmospheres for surface industries in category 1GD and in category M1 coal mines.

2. Composition

The CEX300 IS detector comprises (cf. figure 1): § an antistatic polycarbonate casing (1) § an intrinsic safety electronic clipper circuit (2) § a gas measurement cell composed of catalytic filaments (3) § one or two cable inlet glands of different types (4)

3. Wiring

The installation will be undertaken in accordance with applicable standards, and more particularly EN 60079-14 and EN 60079-17.

Terminals 1, 2 and 3 of the CEX300 IS sensor will be connected to inputs 1, 2 and 3 respectively of the measuring device (cf. figure 1) via the limiter barriers that supply an intrinsic safety line to the sensor.

The individual connector cable wires connected to terminals 1, 2 and 3 of the CEX300 IS sensor will be sheathed in such a way as to prevent any possibility of contact with any exposed part supplied with power.

34

Please note: the person responsible for IS installation (the “System Designer”) must draw up a system document demonstrating that every aspect of the system shown below complies with Intrinsic Safety. Please refer to EN 50039 for group II and the draft PR EN 50394-1 standard when drafting this document.

The maximum length of cable L depends on the following: From the Electrical Safety viewpoint: § internal impedances and limiter barrier input/output specifications § CEX300 IS input/output specifications (see below) § the length-related Capacitance, Inductance (or L/R) of the cable

From the Operational viewpoint:

§ the sensitive elements of terminals 2 and 3 of the CEX300 IS sensor are fed

with a 50 mA DC supply. The minimum voltage required is 3.5Volts. § the impedance between 1/2 and 1/3 is 1 Kohms; the limiter barrier impedance

must be a few Kohms at the maximum § the voltage between device terminals 2/3 must be less than 15 volts

Note: ISC/OLDHAM recommends that users request the system installation document.

4. Calibration

The procedure is identical to that for the CEX 300. Please refer to the previous paragraphs. 5. Replacing the cell

Replacement cells must be original ISC/OLDHAM parts. The four cell wires must be connected to the 4-way terminal such that they are as tight as possible (cf. figure 1 above)

2.1.2. Special precautions for explosive gas detectors

• Cells are sensitive to certain poisons, which can reduce their sensitivity: emission of silicone-containing vapours at concentrations > 10 ppm and chlorinated or sulphurous products at concentrations > 100 ppm.

• A lack of oxygen (< 15% O2) or over-oxygenation (> 23% O2) may cause under-measurement (in the former case) or over-measurement (in the latter case).

• Cells must be located head downwards at installation or during maintenance work.

2.1.3. Response to other explosive gasses

It is recommended that the detector is calibrated using the gas to be measured. Users wishing to calibrate the detector using a gas other that detected and factory-programmed should refer to the following table, and use the recommended gas and corresponding coefficient.
