Carbon Dioxide

Carbon dioxide is a colorless, odorless, non-toxic, and non-flammable gas that is present in the Earth’s atmosphere at a low concentration.

explosive when suspended in carbon dioxide.
In concentrations up to 1% (10 000 ppm), it will make some people feel drowsy and give the lungs a stuffy feeling. Concentrations of 7% to 10% (70 000 to 100 000 ppm) may cause suffocation, even in the presence of sufficient oxygen, manifesting as dizziness, headache, visual and hearing dysfunction, and unconsciousness within a few minutes to an hour.

Product Description

E2658 is a series of flameproof gas detectors-transmitters intended for operation in safe zones and ATEX Zones 2 and 22. E2658 series devices are based on the PluraSens®
multifunctional platform and provide all its features. The instruments utilize gas sensors of various types with excellent repeatability, stability, and long lifetime.
The E2658 series provides two independent analog outputs OUT1 and OUT2, user- selectable to 4-20 mA or 0-10 V, proportional to gas concentrations. RS485 Modbus RTU digital communication interface allows easy instrument configuration and integration into various automation systems.

The following features are available as an option:

• Two relays RE1 and RE2 with closing contacts. Relay outputs can be used to switch alarm sirens, ventilation fans, shut-off valves, or other actuators,
• 24 VAC or 230 VAC as options for power supply.

The version of your detector is marked on the package. If the symbol is marked on the equipment, consult the documentation for further information.

Safety requirements

Misuse will impair the protection of the product. Always adhere to the safety provisions applicable in the country of use.
Do not perform any maintenance operation with the power on. Do not let water or foreign objects inside the device.
Removal of the PCB from the enclosure voids the warranty. Do not touch the electronic components directly, as they are sensitive to static electricity.
Connection diagrams can be found in the electrical connections section. The device might not perform correctly or be damaged if the wrong power supply is connected.
It is crucial to properly tighten all the thread connections (screws, cable glands). Use ATEX certified armored cables or cable conduits that are rated for use in the desired
environment.
A disconnecting device that is marked as such and easily accessible should be included in the installation of this product.
The device should be properly earthed.

Operating conditions

The device should be used in a basic electromagnetic environment, where the latter is defined in EN 61326-1. Avoid strong mechanical shock and vibrations. Although E2658
series devices are suitable for use in the presence of flammable dust, special precautions should be taken when operating in a dusty environment. Dust may block the porous filter of the sensor and compromise the results of the measurement. The detector should be inspected regularly if used in a dusty atmosphere. Keep the instrument away from direct sunlight. A sudden temperature or humidity change might affect the sensitivity of the sensor. Make sure that installation and maintenance are performed in an explosion-safe atmosphere.

Installation guidelines

Before proceeding with the installation it is mandatory to read the Safety requirements section and make sure to comply with all listed instructions. Installation standards EN 60079-29-2 and EN 45544-4 are also recommended for further instructions and related information about the installation. During the installation of the detector-transmitter the
following points must be considered:

• Application (air quality control or leakage detection.)
• Properties of the space under investigation (room geometry, direction, and the velocity of airflows, etc.),
• CO2 is heavier than air, it is recommended to locate the sensor not higher than the potential leakage. For air quality control, place the sensor in the breathing zone.
• The device should be accessible for maintenance and repair.

The aforementioned conditions above will affect the coverage area of the device. However, the coverage area for a detector-transmitter is usually between 2.5 to 5 meters radius.
For early leakage detection, install the sensor as close as possible to the potential leakage sources (flanges, valves, pressure reducers, pumps, etc.), taking into consideration other
points listed above.
Fo r general area monitoring without definite leakage sources, the detectors should be distributed evenly in the room.
For personal safety control, the detectors are installed in the breathing zone (at the height of the head of people or animals). The recommended sensor position is vertical, pointing downwards.

The device is fixed on the wall using two fixing holes located outside the sealed area of the device (see dimensional drawing). Unscrew four lid screws and detach the lid from the detector. Fix the detector on the wall and earth the enclosure using an earthing terminal on the side of the device.
NOTE! Never perform installation or maintenance in an explosive atmosphere!

Mounting dimensions

Sensor probe handling

The sensor probes of all types are equipped with a hydrophobic microporous PTFE filter to protect the sensor from dust, dirt, and water drops. The filter should be replaced if it gets strongly contaminated. To replace the PTFE filter, unscrew the sensor head cap and remove the old filter. Place a new filter into the cap and tighten it again.
NOTE! Never stab or press the filter near its center where the sensor is located since this may damage the sensor. Do not remove the filter as it may cause the device to show incorrect values and/or break the sensor.
The recommended orientation of the sensor probe is vertical with the sensor tip pointing downwards. This prevents the possible accumulation of condensed water on the sensor protection filter.

Gas sensor replacement procedures

1. Remove the sensor head cap from the device,
2. Remove the PTFE filter (if it is not removed within the cap),
3. Remove the O-ring rubber,
4. Detach the NDIR sensor from the device,
5. Insert the new NDIR sensor inside,
6. Put back the O-ring rubber, PTFE filter, and the head cap, respectively.

Electrical connections

Unscrew four lid screws and detach the lid from the device. Use the M25 cable gland to let in the cables of the power supply and of the external devices. Without turning on the power, plug the power cable, and connect the analog/relay outputs and/or digital interface terminals to the necessary devices according to the relevant connection diagram.

The screwless quick-connect spring terminals on the E2658 series devices are suitable for a wide range of wires with cross-sections 0,5…1,5 mm2. We recommend striping the wire end by 8…9 mm and using the wire end sleeves.
To connect the wire, insert the wire end into the terminal hole. To disconnect, push the spring-loaded terminal lever, pull the wire out, and release the lever. Use a twisted-pair cable, e.g. LiYY TP 2×2×0.5 mm2 or CAT 5, to connect the device to the RS485 network. A and B on the device represent DATA+ and DATA- respectively, polarity must be respected when connecting to an external RS485 network.
Both analog outputs can be independently changed between 4-20 mA and 0-10 V type using jumpers J1 (OUT1) and J2 (OUT2). By closing pins on a specific jumper the related
output is 0-10 V, with an open jumper the output is 4-20 mA. Power restart is required after changing the position of the jumpers.

NOTE! The outputs are not galvanically isolated from the external power supply and share a common 0V. Allowed load resistance limits are stated in the Specifications table. To power, the instrument from an external power source, connect terminals 0V and +U to the source. If the integrated mains power supply module is used, connect terminals L and N to the mains.
NOTE! Actuator short-circuits should be avoided, to protect the instrument relays using external fuses or safety switches.

Correct and incorrect cabling for 24 VAC
