Description

This section describes the components of the toxic gas transmitter. The toxic gas transmitter is a 4 – 20 mA type detector head. It consists of the toxic detector, amplifier, and junction box.

Figure 1: Toxic Transmitter Component Location

Toxic Detector
The toxic detector consists of the detector housing body, detector housing cap, cap gasket, and plug-in sensor.

RKI INSTRUMENTS CT-7 Series 65-2341 Toxic Gas Transmitter -
fig Detector Housing Body

The detector housing body protects the electronic components within the housing. Use the mounting threads at the top of the housing to screw the toxic detector into the 3/4 NPT hub on the bottom of the junction box. Two wires extend from the top of the detector housing body. Use these wires to connect the toxic detector to the amplifier. One of the wires is black and one of the wires is color-coded depending on the detector type. See Figure 5 on page 12 for the color code assignments.

The housing body includes a four-socket pattern at the bottom of the housing body. The plugin sensor mates to this socket pattern. A pre-amplifier located between the sockets and the two interconnect wires conditions the sensor’s signal before the signal reaches the amplifier in the junction box. Each plug- in sensor type (Cl2 for example) requires a different pre-amplifier, so there is a different detector housing body for each gas type.

Housing Cap and Cap Gasket
The housing cap screws onto the detector housing body. It retains the sensor and protects it from damage. A foam gasket inside the housing cap seals against the face of the sensor when the cap is screwed on the detector housing body. Unscrew the detector cap to access the sensor for replacement. A cap gasket seals the interface between the housing and cap.

Plug-In Sensor
The plug-in sensor is secured in the detector assembly by the housing cap. There is a different sensor for each target gas. Through a series of chemical and electrical reactions, the sensor produces an electrical output that corresponds to the detection range of the sensor. A VersaporR membrane is installed on the sensor face for protection from water and debris.

Amplifier
The amplifier converts the electrical output from the detector to a 4 to 20 mA signal that corresponds to the detection range and transmits the signal to a gas monitoring controller. A foam gasket that orients the amplifier and keeps it from rotating is installed on the bottom of the amplifier. The amplifier includes the detector terminal strip, controller terminal strip, zero pot, span pot, and test points.

RKI INSTRUMENTS CT-7 Series 65-2341 Toxic Gas Transmitter - fig
1

Controller Terminal Strip
The controller terminal strip is a two-position plug-in-style terminal strip located at the top edge of the amplifier. Use the controller terminal strip to wire the transmitter to a controller.

Detector Terminal Strip
The detector terminal strip is a four-position plug-in-style terminal strip located below the controller terminal strip. Two of the positions are for use with an oxygen sensor and are not used in the toxic gas transmitter. Use the two detector terminal strip positions that are labeled “TOXIC” to connect the detector to the amplifier.

NOTE: The detector is factory-wired to the detector terminal strip. See “Wiring the Toxic Gas Transmitter to a Controller” on page 10 for all wiring procedures related to the
transmitter.

Zero Pot
The zero pot is located in the upper left corner of the amplifier (see Figure 3). Use a small flat blade screwdriver to turn the zero pot’s adjustment screw and adjust the amplifier’s zero (fresh air) output during the start-up and calibration procedures. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to increase the zero output and counterclockwise to decrease the zero output.

Span Pot
The span pot is located to the right of the zero pot (see Figure 3). Use a small flat blade screwdriver to turn the span pot’s adjustment screw and adjust the amplifier’s gas response output during the calibration procedure. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to increase the span output and counterclockwise to decrease the span output.

CAUTION: The amplifier includes an additional potentiometer. It is factory-set. Do not adjust it.

Test Points
The test points are on the left side of the amplifier (see Figure 3). The test points produce a 100 mV to 500 mV output that corresponds to the transmitter’s 4 to 20 mA output. Use the test points and a voltmeter to measure the amplifier’s output during the start-up and calibration procedures. The black test point in the lower-left corner is the negative (-) test point and there test point below the zero pot is the positive (+) test point.

Junction Box
Use the junction box to install the transmitter at a mounting site that is remote from the controller. The junction box protects the amplifier and wiring connections made to the amplifier. Use the top 3/4 NPT conduit hub to connect wiring from the amplifier to the controller. Use the cover on the front of the junction box to access the interior of the junction box. The detector and amplifier are factories installed in the junction box. Three spacers installed on the back of the junction box control the distance of the junction box from a mounting surface and ensure that there is enough room to install a calibration cup on the detector during calibration.

Installation

This section describes procedures to mount the toxic gas transmitter in the monitoring environment and wire the transmitter to a controller.

Mounting the Toxic Gas Transmitter

  1. Select a mounting site that is representative of the monitoring environment. Consider the following when you select the mounting site.
    • Select a site where the transmitter is not likely to be bumped or disturbed. Make sure there is sufficient room to perform start-up, maintenance, and calibration procedures.
    • Select a site where the target gas is likely to be found first
    RKI INSTRUMENTS CT-7 Series 65-2341 Toxic Gas Transmitter - fig

  2. At the monitoring site, you select, hang or mount the junction box with the detector facing down (see Figure 4).

Wiring the Toxic Gas Transmitter to a Controller
WARNING: Always verify that power to the controller is off before you make wiring connections.

  1. Turn off the controller.

  2. Turn off the power to the controller.

  3. Remove the junction box cover.

  4. The detector leads are factory wired. Verify that the detector leads are wired to the amplifier’s detector terminal strip as shown in Figure 5.

  5. To gain access to a plug-in terminal strip for wiring, pull it out of its socket by grasping the terminal strip and pulling. The detector strip is keyed so that the controller and detector terminal strips cannot be reversed inadvertently.

  6. Guide a two-conductor, shielded cable or two wires in conduit through the top conduit hub of the junction box.

  7. Pull out the controller terminal strip, and connect the two wires to the terminal strip as follows (see Figure 5).
    • Connect the positive wire to the SIG/PWR “+” terminal.
    • Connect the signal wire to the SIG/PWR “S” terminal.
    CAUTION: If shielded cable is used, leave the cable shield’s drain wire disconnected and insulated at the transmitter. You will connect the opposite end of the cable’s drain wire to the controller’s chassis (earth) ground.

  8. Reinstall the controller terminal strip into its socket.

  9. Secure the junction box cover to the junction box.

  10. Route the cable or wires leading from the toxic gas transmitter through one of the conduit hubs at the controller housing.
    CAUTION:Do not route power and transmitter wiring through the same controller conduit hub. The power cable may disrupt the transmission of the transmitter signal to the controller.

  11. Connect the wires to the applicable detector/transmitter terminal strip at the controller as shown in Figure 5.
    RKI INSTRUMENTS CT-7 Series 65-2341 Toxic Gas Transmitter - fig
4

  12. If shielded cable is used, connect the cable’s drain wire to an available chassis (earth) on the ground at the controller. RKI controllers typically have a ground stud that can be used to ground the cable’s drain wire.

  5. Unscrew and remove the screw with the flat and lock washers that secure the amplifier to the junction box.

  6. Remove the old amplifier.

  7. Install the new amplifier into the junction box with the screw, lock washer, and flat washer you removed in Step 5 above. A foam gasket that orients the amplifier and keeps it from rotating is installed on the bottom of the amplifier. Make sure the amplifier is seated flat in the junction box.

  8. Install the detector and controller terminal strips into their sockets on the new amplifier as shown in Figure 5 on page 12. If controller leads or detector leads were removed during this procedure, refer to Figure 5 on page 12 for the detector and amplifier connections.
    NOTE: When a transmitter is first powered up with a new amplifier, the initial output may be either high or below zero depending on the setting of the zero pot. Be sure to make arrangements so that this does not cause unwanted alarms.

  9. Turn on power to the controller.

  10. Turn on the controller and place it into normal operation.

  11. Allow the transmitter to warm up for 15 minutes.

  12.  Calibrate the transmitter as described in “Calibration” on page 19 of this manual.

Calibration Frequency
Although there is no particular calibration frequency that is correct for all applications, a calibration frequency of every 3 months is adequate for most toxic gas transmitter applications. Unless experienced in a particular application dictates otherwise, RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends a calibration frequency of every 3 months for the toxic gasotransmitter.
If an application is not very demanding, for example, detection in a clean, temperature-controlled environment where toxic gas is not normally present, and calibration adjustments are minimal at calibration, then a calibration frequency of every 6 months is adequate. If an application is very demanding, for example, if the environment is not ell controlled or if toxic gas is often present, then more frequent calibration than every 3 months may be necessary.

Calibration
This section describes how to calibrate the toxic gas transmitter. It includes procedures to prepare for calibration, set the zero (fresh air) reading, set the span (response) reading, and return to normal operation. It describes calibration using a calibration kit that includes a calibration cup, calibration gas, sample tubing, and a fixed flow regulator with an on/off knob. RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends using a 0.5 LPM (liters per minute) fixed flow regulator.

WARNING: RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends that you dedicate a regulator for use with chlorine (Cl2) gas and that you do not use that dedicated regulator for any other gases, particularly hydrogen sulfide (H2S).
WARNING: Not using the recommended calibration cup and sample flowrate will result in an inaccurate calibration. See“Parts List” on page 22 for the required calibration cup and regulator.
Special Note About Calibrating a ClO2 Detector
RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends using a ClO2 generator to set the ClO2 detector’s response reading. The flow rate on the generator needs to be set to 0.5 LPM and RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends that 0.5 ppm ClO2 be used. If a ClO2 generator is used for calibration, the steps related to the use of a calibration gas cylinder in the instructions below can be disregarded.

Preparing for Calibration
CAUTION: Confirm that the detector has been running for more than 15 minutes before performing a calibration.

  1. Place the controller into its calibration mode or disable external alarms.
    NOTE: Calibrating the toxic gas transmitter may cause alarms. Be sure to put the controller into its calibration program or disable external alarms before continuing.

  2. Unscrew and remove the junction box cover.

  3. Set a voltmeter to measure in the millivolt (mV) range.

  4. Plug the voltmeter leads into the test points on the amplifier. Plug the positive lead into the red + test point; plug the negative lead into the black – test point.

  5. Use the following formula to determine the correct test points output for the calibrating sample.
    Output (mV) = (calibrating sample/fullscale) X 400 + 100
    For example, with a calibrating sample of 2.00 ppm and a fullscale setting of 3.00, the correct output is 367 mV.
    367(mV) = (2.00/3.00) X 400 +100

  6. Screw the calibration cup onto the bottom of the detector.

Setting the Zero (Fresh Air) Reading
NOTE: If you can verify that the toxic gas transmitter is in a fresh air environment, you do not need to apply zero air to the detector before adjusting the fresh air reading.

  1. Screw the regulator into the zero air calibration cylinder.
  2. Use the sample tubing to connect the regulator to the calibration cup.
  3. Turn the regulator knob counterclockwise to open the regulator.
  4. Allow the gas to flow for two minutes and verify a reading of 100 mV (±2 mV). If necessary, use the zero pot on the amplifier to adjust the reading to 100 mV (±2 mV).
  5. Turn the regulator knob clockwise to close the regulator.
  6. Unscrew the regulator from the zero air calibration cylinder. Leave the sample tubing connected to the regulator and the calibration cup.

NOTE: Depending on the size of your zero air cylinder, it is possible that you will have a different regulator for the zero air cylinder and toxic gas cylinder. If necessary to fit the calibration toxic gas cylinder, change the regulator.

Setting the Span (Response) Reading

  1. Verify that the calibration gas is representative of the transmitter’s target gas.

  2. For toxic gas cylinders (like Cl2), it is important to vent the regulator while installing it onto the cylinder. Venting the regulator during installation helps prevent air from getting into the cylinder and degrading the gas. Open the regulator by turning the knob counterclockwise and then install it onto the cylinder (or start the flow of gas from a
    generator).

  3. Allow the calibration gas to flow for two minutes and verify that the reading matches the response reading (±2 mV) you determined earlier. If necessary, use the span port on the amplifier to adjust the reading to match the correct response reading.

  4. Turn the regulator knob clockwise to close the regulator (or stop the flow of gas from a generator).

  5. Unscrew the regulator from the calibration cylinder.

Returning to Normal Operation

  1. Remove the voltmeter leads from the amplifier test points.

  2. Unscrew the calibration cup from the detector. Make sure that you do not loosen the detector housing cap when you unscrew the calibration cup.
    NOTE: For convenience, leave the regulator and calibration cup connected by the sample tubing.

  3. Secure the junction box cover to the junction box.

  4. When the controller display reading falls below the alarm setpoints, return the controller to normal operation.
    NOTE: If you do not allow the gas reading to decrease below the alarm points, then unwanted alarms may occur.

  5. Verify that the controller display reading decreases and stabilizes at 0 ppm.

  6. Store the components of the calibration kit in a safe and convenient place.
