Relay option
– Max 5 A current for relays allowed (SPDT contact 5 A at
230 VAC, 5 A at 30 VDC)
– At voltages >30 V AC or >42.4 V DC, the relay cables
must be enclosed in protective tubing, or double-insulated
cables must be used.
– The wiring for the optional relay module must be selected
and fused according to the rated voltages, currents and
environmental conditions.
– Voltage differences can cause insulation faults. Do not mix
electric loads with different voltage types (AC or DC).
Using DC loads, ensure that relay contacts only control
devices with the same DC voltage rating. Using AC loads,
ensure that relay contacts are only connected to devices
sharing a common phase.
1.5
Commissioning
– Ensure wiring for relays and connections for sensor are
made before applying power.
– Before leaving the instrument for normal operation, check
the configuration and calibration for the proper settings.
1.5.1 Calibration
– For proper operation, never adjust the span before
completing zero adjustment. Performing these operations
out of order will cause the calibration to be faulty.
– If the intended operation is at high altitudes, the reading
will be lower than the reading at sea level (reduced partial
pressure). A new span calibration is recommended if the
altitude or the ambient pressure is changed. The factory
calibration is set to sea level.
– Dräger recommends calibrating instruments with target
gas. This method is more accurate than a surrogate gas
calibration. A surrogate gas calibration may only be
performed as an alternative if a target gas calibration is
not possible.
– Methane and hydrogen should be calibrated with target
gas only and not calibrated with a surrogate gas.
1.6
During operation
WARNING
Risk of electric shock
Opening the instrument during operation can result in an
electric shock.
► Disconnect power from the instrument and wait at least 1
minute before continuing.
1.6.1 Maintenance
– The maintenance intervals must be established for each
individual installation. Depending on safety considerations
and application specific conditions the instrument is used
in, these might need to be shortened.
– Refer to the maintenance section in the transmitter
instructions for use.

Under normal conditions, Dräger recommends the following
1)
calibration intervals
:
– Electrochemical sensors (EC): 6 months
– Catalytic sensors (CAT): 4 months
