Introduction

MH-410D infrared gas sensor is a miniature universal intelligent sensor, which adopts NDIR theory to detect concentration of CO2 in air and has good selectivity, stable performance, long life, also is independent of Oxygen. The inside temperature sensor could be used for temperature compensation. This miniature infrared gas sensor is developed by the tight integration of mature infrared absorbing gas detection technology, micro machine workout and superior circuit design.

Features

• High sensitivity, high resolution, low power consumption, Fast response time
• Output method: UART, analog voltage signal
• Temperature compensation, excellent linear output
• Long lifespan, Excellent stability, Anti-poisons, anti-vapor interference

Applications
Widely used for HVAC refrigeration, industrial-process control and safety protection, agriculture and animal husbandry.

Intrinsically safe explosion-proof

• This product meets the standards of GB3836.1-2010 “Explosive Atmosphere Part 1: General Requirements for Equipment” and GB3836.4-2010 “Explosive Atmosphere Part 4: Equipment Protected by Intrinsically Safe “i”” standards”; the explosion-proof mark is Exib ⅡB T4 Gb, it is suitable for zone 1 and zone 2, contains Class IIA, T1-T3 explosive environment formed by the flammable gas, mixture of steam and air; it has passed the inspection by the National Quality Inspection Center for Explosionproof Electrical Products and obtained the explosion-proof certificate. When using, please note the following:
• The intrinsically safe power supply must be used to power the sensor, otherwise the explosion-proof performance will be affected.
• It is forbidden to replace the sensor in dangerous places.
• It is forbidden to disassemble or replace the sensor element to avoid affecting the explosion-proof performance.
•  It is not allowed to replace components or structures, so as not to affect the explosion-proof performance.
• The installation and wiring of the safety barrier must be carried out in accordance with the safety barrier instruction manual, and the safety barrier must obtain an explosion-proof certificate.

Connection diagram of intrinsically safe explosion-proof system
The on-site installation must comply with the relevant regulations of the GB3836.15—2000 “Electrical
Equipment for Explosive Gas Environment Part 15: Electrical Installation in Hazardous Locations (Except Coal and Mines). The distribution parameters of the connecting cable between the safety barrier and the sensor should meet:
Cc≤Co-Ci Lc≤Lo-Li Ui≥Uo Ii≥Io Pi≥Po
Note:
Uo: Maximum output voltage of safety barrier;
Io: Maximum output current of safety barrier
Po: Maximum output power of safety barrier
Co: Maximum external capacitance of safety barrier
Lo: the maximum external inductance of the safety barrier (see the safety barrier instructions for the above parameters book)
Cc: Maximum allowable distributed capacitance of connecting cable
Ui: sensor maximum input voltage
Ii: Maximum sensor input current
Pi: sensor maximum input power
Ci: Maximum internal capacitance of the sensor
Li: Maximum internal inductance of the sensor
Lc: Maximum allowable distributed inductance of connecting cable
Note:

• The sensor should be calibrated regularly, and the recommended calibration period is 6 months.
• Do not use the sensor for a long time in an environment with high dust density.
• Please use the sensor within the power supply range of the sensor.
• It is forbidden to cut or weld the sensor pins.
