Sentry Instruction Manual - Version 6

2. CAUTIONS & WARNINGS

2.1 INTRODUCTION

Although the Sentry system is designed and constructed for installation and operation in industrial applications including "hostile" environments, caution should be taken to insure that the installation is made in compliance with this instruction manual and that certain procedures and conditions are avoided. This chapter discusses the necessary cautions. Read the entire chapter prior to installation of the equipment.

2.2 CONTROLLER

The controller should be installed in a location which is safely accessible during a gas alarm.

Avoid installing the controller where it will be unnecessarily exposed to wind, dust, shock or vibration or direct sun. Observe temperature range limitations.

Adhere to standard electrical installation procedures. The chassis ground on the controller must be connected to earth ground.

2.3 WIRING

While the digital communication method used between the controller and modules will greatly reduce problems associated with electromagnetic and radio frequency interference the manufacturer recommends that extra caution be taken where the installation is near any sources of these interferences:

∙Avoid running sensor module cable close to high power cables, radio transmission lines, or cables subject to pulses of high current.

∙Avoid running cables near large electric motors or generators.

∙When the risk of interference is present use shielded cables. In conduit installations the shield should be connected to the conduit. In cable applications the shield should be connected to the cable connector.

∙All splices must be via either a lug and terminal system or soldered. Improperly spliced cable can result in corrosion, resistance changes and system errors.

NOTE

Installation and wiring must be in accordance with the

National Electrical Code

2.4 SENSOR MODULES - GENERAL

Avoid installing sensor modules where they will be unnecessarily exposed to wind, dust, water (esp. direct hose down), shock, or vibration. Observe temperature range limitations.

Sensors may be adversely affected by prolonged exposure to certain materials. Loss of sensitivity, or corrosion, may be gradual if such materials are present in low

concentrations. These materials include: Halides (compounds containing chlorine, fluorine, bromine, iodine), silicones, acid vapors, caustic liquids or mists.

Care has been taken by the manufacturer to ship your modules in protective packaging to avoid contamination prior to installation. It is recommended that the sensors remain protected during installation and that the covering be removed immediately prior to system start-up.

During normal use the sensor is protected from dirt and oil contamination by a sintered metal cover. If this cover becomes clogged, the response of the sensor will be reduced. Protect the sensor from contamination by careful placement, or by use of rain and dust shields.

Sensor modules must not be painted. Paint may contain compounds which will contaminate the sensor. Paint will cause clogging of the sintered metal cover and will cause difficulties during attachment of the calibration head or other maintenance activity. It is recommended that the module be tagged "DO NOT PAINT".

When sensors are replaced the thread must be Teflon taped to avoid metal to metal binding which will damage the housing threads.

2.4.1 COMBUSTIBLE SENSOR MODULES

Catalytic type combustible gas sensors may be poisoned by exposure to silicones. Sierra Monitor Corporation supplies resistant sensors, but care should be taken to avoid exposure to silicones. No Silicone caulking (RTV) should be used near the sensors. No other silicone based compounds should be used near the sensors unless they are fully protected during the entire cure cycle. If the sensors will be exposed to silicone during normal operation the manufacturer's sensor warranty is void.
