WARNINGS Declassify hazardous area PRIOR to carrying out installation, maintenance, or service operations on the gas detector. Ensure that no flammable gas or vapour is present in the surrounding atmosphere. Do not open the detector when explosion hazard is present. Only clean or wipe the detector surface with a damp cloth so as to avoid the risk of electrostatic sparks. INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING and MAINTENANCE must be carried out by DALEMANS or by an approved service centre only, and in any case by qualified personnel who has received a suitable training. Gas detection equipment must be calibrated at least once a year to mitigate the possible loss of sensitivity of the sensor. This equipment must be installed, operated and maintained in strict accordance with these instructions, warnings and within the operational limits stated. If not, the warranty provided by DALEMANS will be voided. By respecting these instructions you ensure the proper operation of the equipment. Should you require any further information about the installation, the use or the maintenance of this equipment, do not hesitate to contact DALEMANS. Always follow the recommendations hereafter so as to avoid premature ageing of the sensor and to guarantee its optimal operation. These recommendations are general directives. Refer to local regulations in force before proceeding with installation works (i.e. standards IEC 60079-14 and IEC 60079-29-2). Local regulations have always precedence on the recommendations of the manufacturer. Maintenance must be performed according to the procedure given by DALEMANS or his local representative. Maintenance or service attempts without observing these instructions or without the assistance of DALEMANS may prevent the equipment from working properly and from ensuring the safety of the occupants of the monitored premises. Modification, disassembling and total or partial destruction of this equipment may invalidate the essential safety requirements of the whole plant. Use only DALEMANS original replacement parts. The use of non-original parts may invalidate the certification and warranty of the equipment. LIMITATIONS Sensors may be cross-sensitive to other gases. Contact DALEMANS for further details. Catalytic sensors are not suitable for use in atmospheres with variable oxygen level, or with oxygen level over 21 % or below 15 %. Long-term exposure to atmospheres with flammable gas level over 100 % of the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) may shorten the sensor life. Catalytic sensors might lose sensitivity in presence of poisons and inhibitors such as silicone, halogens, and heavy metals. Where these compounds are present continuously DALEMANS recommend using INFRARED flammable gas detectors which are immune to such poisons and inhibitors. Infrared sensors are not suitable for the detection of hydrogen. Gas detectors should be installed as late as possible in any program of construction operations (i.e. construction of a new plant, refitting or maintenance) but before the presence of gas or vapours in the system, so as to avoid damage to sensors resulting in particular from such activities as welding and painting. If already installed, detectors should be protected by an airtight seal to avoid contamination during construction works, and should be clearly marked as being non-operational. Gas detectors must be protected from direct sunlight, vibrations and mechanical impacts. www.dalemans.com 4

SAFETY INFORMATION Flammable limits Relationship between percent of Lower Explosive Limit (% LEL) and percent by volume (% v/v) differs from gas to gas. The IEC 60079-20-1 standard gives the method for the determination of flammable limits. Examples include: Gas Formula 100 % LEL Acetylene C 2 H 2 2.3 % v/v Butane C 4 H 10 1.4 % v/v Ethane C 2 H 6 2.4 % v/v Ethylene C 2 H 4 2.3 % v/v Hydrogen H 2 4.0 % v/v Methane CH 4 4.4 % v/v Pentane C 5 H 12 1.1 % v/v Propane C 3 H 8 1.7 % v/v Alarm set points In a gas detection system, alarms must be set according to the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) of the target gas. Typical alarm set points for combustible gas detection devices are 20 % LEL for the low alarm (A1) and 40 % LEL for the high alarm (A2). Never use alarm set points over 60 % LEL. The determination of the alarm set points must take the possible effects of the ambient climatic conditions into account: Temperature effect The Lower Explosive Limit of a gas is affected by temperature. If temperature increases, the L.E.L. decreases, and the explosion hazard is higher. Pressure effect Humidity effect The Lower Explosive Limit of a gas is affected by pressure. The relationship between L.E.L. and pressure is very complex. However, a pressure increase usually lowers the LEL and thereby the explosion hazard is higher. The Lower Explosive Limit of a gas is not significantly affected by the humidity fluctuations that may occur in the average industrial environment. Climatic condition Effect on gas L.E.L.

2. DESCRIPTION 2.1. Overview The D TEX420 gas detector is designed to detect flammable gases present in ambient air at concentrations up to 100 % of the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL). It operates using CATALYTIC or INFRARED sensors. The sensor output signal is converted by the D-BASE 420 Circuit Board into a 4-20 ma electrical signal which varies according to the gas concentration. This signal is delivered to the control unit or the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) through a 3-wire current loop. The D TEX420 is suitable for: Use in areas other than mine (ATEX group II - equipment category 3) Use in gas explosive atmospheres of Zone 2 hazardous areas Operating at temperature from 0 C up to +50 C The D TEX420 gas detector comprises the following external components: An IP65 flame retardant plastic enclosure. An Increased Safety e certified IP68 cable gland. A LCD screen which displays, in normal operation, the value of the gas or concentration present in the atmosphere. Three touch keys.

3. INSTALLATION 3.1. Location Gas detectors must be placed so that potential gas accumulations are detected before they create a significant hazard. Inappropriate location of a detector can nullify the effect and the integrity of the gas detection system. The placement of the detectors should be determined in consultation with experts having specialist knowledge of gas dispersion, with those who have knowledge of process plant system and equipment involved, and with safety and engineering personnel. Should you require any further guidance or assistance please contact DALEMANS or his local representative. The location of every detector must be recorded and available to the safety personnel. Consider the following points when positioning a gas detector: The detector should be readily accessible for maintenance and electrical safety inspection. It must be possible to fit all accessories or test equipment for maintenance and servicing. Hazard level and potential sources of gas leak must be taken into account. Consider the combination of sources of gas release with propagation effects. The detector should be protected against operational hazards of the plant. The detector should be protected against vibrations and mechanical impacts. The detector should never be positioned directly above or below a water point. For outdoor installation, a protection against rain and/or sun exposition shall be installed. The detector should not be mounted in air currents. Always observe the operational temperature range of the sensor (refer to Specifications ). To detect a gas which is lighter than air, place the detector at a high level. To detect a gas which is heavier than air, place the detector at a low level. If the gas density is close to air density, place detectors at both high and low levels. Gas density increases when temperature decreases. When mounting the detector at a high level, DALEMANS recommend using a D LINE collecting cone accessory (see Spare parts and accessories for part number). The following table gives examples of detector locations depending on the gas to detect: Gas * Formula Density (air = 1) Position Cracked gas - 0.47 Hydrogen H 2 0.07 Methane CH 4 0.55 High Natural gas - 0.68 Butane C 4 H 10 2.05 Ethylene oxide C 2 H 4 O 1.52 Isobutane (CH 3 ) 3 CH 2.00 Low Propane C 3 H 8 1.56 Acetylene C 2 H 2 0.90 Propane-air - High and low * This list is not exhaustive www.dalemans.com INSTALLATION 12

3.2. Mounting The D TEX420 detector should be mounted flat on a wall or a ceiling. Mounting details are given on page 11. Attach the detector using suitable screws and plugs. Ensure that dust will not block the sensor and that water will not run into the detector. The D TEX420 may be mounted horizontally or vertically. For vertical mounting, the detector may be mounted with the cable gland pointing upwards or downwards but the detector lid must always be in the position shown below. TOP BOTTOM TOP BOTTOM Figure 5: D TEX420 gas detector vertical mounting www.dalemans.com INSTALLATION 13

3.3. Field wiring Field wiring must comply with local regulations and standards in force. Always ensure that the electrical requirements of the D TEX420 gas detector meet the capability of the associated control unit or PLC (see Specifications ). DALEMANS recommend using colour coded cable with solid wires. The acceptable cross sectional area of the cable is 0.75 to 2.5 mm². The cable wires must be stripped and plugged so that the gap between insulation and the metal edge of the terminal connection does not exceed 1 mm. The overall cable diameter must be within the range given below. Figure 6: D TEX420 wiring The cable gland must be sufficiently tightened on the cable to ensure a good sealing. The cable shielding or screening must be grounded at the control unit / PLC. The maximum acceptable cable length depends on the level of the supply voltage applied to the detector and the cross sectional area of the wires. The table and the diagram below give examples: Cross-section Cable length (L) +20 Vdc +24 Vdc 0.75 mm² 200 m 900 m 1.50 mm² 350 m 1000 m 2.50 mm² 600 m 1000 m Figure 7: maximum cable length www.dalemans.com INSTALLATION 14

5. MAINTENANCE Prior to carrying out maintenance or service operations on the gas detector, inhibit the safety function of the detector on the associated control unit or PLC and secure any output device connected to the system to prevent false alarms and unintended actuations. Never open the detector when flammable gas is present. Regularly remove dust from the detector WITH A DAMP CLOTH ONLY to avoid the risk of electrostatic sparks. If contamination of the sintered metal filter by solvent, gas or vapour has occurred, the sensing head must be replaced and the inspection frequency should be increased twofold. Gas detectors must be calibrated at least once a year to mitigate the loss of sensitivity of the sensor. This calibration must be performed according to the procedure given by DALEMANS or his local representative, and in any case by qualified personnel who will have received a suitable training. 5.1. Sensor replacement The sensor is supplied fitted into the D BASE 420 circuit board to allow easy plug-in replacement: Unscrew the four metal screws of the detector lid and remove the lid. Disconnect the B1 connector from the D BASE 420 circuit board. Unclip and remove the D BASE 420 circuit board from the detector enclosure. Fit the replacement circuit board inside the enclosure and reconnect the B1 connector. Put the lid back onto the detector and screw the four metal screws of the lid back on again. Please follow the procedure given by DALEMANS or its local representative for commissioning and calibrating the detector if need be.
