1 Intended use
2 Description
The Danfoss gas detection controller unit is controlling one or multiple gas detectors, for monitoring, detection and warning of toxic and flammable gases and vapours in the ambient air. The controller unit meets the requirements according to EN 378 and the guidelines “Safety requirements for ammonia (NH3) refrigeration systems”.
The controller unit is a warning and control unit for the continuous monitoring of different toxic or flammable gases and vapours as well as of HFC and HFO refrigerants. The controller unit is suitable for the connection of up to 96 digital sensors via the 2-wire bus. Up to 32 analog inputs for the connection of sensors with 4 to 20 mA signal interface are available in addition. The controller unit can be employed as pure analog controller, as analog/digital or as digital controller. The total number of connected sensors, however, may not exceed 128 sensors.
Up to four programmable alarm thresholds are available for each sensor. For binary transmission of the alarms there are up to 32 relays with potential-free change-over contact and up to 96 signal relays.
The intended sites are all areas being directly connected to the public low voltage supply, e.g. residential, commercial and industrial ranges as well as small enterprises (according to EN 5502). The controller unit may only be used in ambient conditions as specified in the technical data.
The controller unit must not be used in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Comfortable and easy operation of the controller unit is done via the logical menu structure. A number of integrated parameters enables the realisation of various requirements in the gas measuring technique. Configuration is menu-driven via the keypad. For fast and easy configuration, you can use the PC based configuration software, included in the PC tool.
Prior to commissioning please consider the guidelines for wiring and commissioning of the hardware.
2.1 Normal Mode
2.2 Alarm Mode
2.3 Special Status Mode
In normal mode, the gas concentrations of the active sensors are continuously polled and displayed at the LC display in a scrolling way. In addition, the controller unit continuously monitors itself, its outputs and the communication to all active sensors and modules.
If the gas concentration reaches or exceeds the programmed alarm threshold, the alarm is started, the assigned alarm relay is activated and the alarm LED (light red for alarm 1, dark red for alarm 2 + n) starts to flash. The set alarm can be read from the menu Alarm Status.
When the gas concentration falls below the alarm threshold and the set hysteresis, the alarm is automatically reset. In latching mode, the alarm must be reset manually directly at the alarm triggering device after falling below the threshold.
In the special status mode there are delayed measurements for the operation side, but no alarm evaluation. The special status is indicated on the display and it always activates the fault relay.
The controller unit adopts the special status when:
- faults of one or more active devices occur,
- the operation starts up after return of voltage (power on),
- the service mode is activated by the user,
- the user reads or changes parameters,
- an alarm or signal relay is manually overridden in the alarm status menu or via digital inputs.
This function is obligatory for flammable gases detected by catalytic bead sensors generating a falling signal at too high gas concentrations.

2.3.1 Fault Mode
2.3.2 Restart Mode (Warm-up Operation)
2.3.3 Service Mode
If the controller unit detects an incorrect communication of an active sensor or module, or if an analog signal is outside the admissible range (< 3.0 mA > 21.2 mA), or if there are internal function errors coming from the self-control modules incl. watchdog and voltage control, the assigned fault relay is set and the error LED starts to flash.
Gas detection sensors need a running-in period, until the chemical process of the sensor reaches stable conditions. During this running-in period the sensor signal can lead to an unwanted release of a pseudo alarm.
Depending on the connected sensor types, the longest warm-up time must be entered as power­on time in the controller.
This power-on time is started at the controller unit after switching on the power supply and/or after the return of voltage.
This operation mode includes commissioning, calibration, testing, repair and decommissioning.
The service mode can be enabled for a single sensor, for a group of sensors as well as for the complete system. In active service mode pending alarms for the concerned devices are held, but new alarms are suppressed.
The error is displayed in the menu Error Status in clear text. After removal of the cause, the error message must be acknowledged manually in the menu Error Status.
While this time is running out, the gas controller unit does not display any values and does not activate any alarms; the controller system is not yet ready for use.
The power-on status occurs on the first line of the starting menu.
2.3.4 UPS Functionality
The supply voltage is monitored in all modes. When reaching the battery voltage in the power pack, the UPS function of the controller unit is enabled and the connected battery is charged.
If the power fails, the battery voltage drops down and generates the power failure message.
At empty battery voltage, the battery is separated from the circuit (function of deep discharge protection).
When the power is restored, there will be an automatic return to the charging mode.
No settings and therefore no parameters are required for the UPS functionality.

4.3 Code Levels
According to the regulations of national and international standards for gas warning systems, all inputs and changes are protected by a four-digit numeric code (= password) against unauthorised intervention. The menu windows of status messages and measuring values are visible without entering a code.
The release of a code level is cancelled if no button is pushed within 15 minutes.
The code levels are classified in order of priority: Priority 1 has top priority.
Priority 1: (code 5468, not changeable)
Code level priority 1 is intended for the service technician of the installer to change parameters and set-points. This password allows working on all settings. For opening the parameter menus you must first activate the service mode after code release.
Priority 2: (code 4009, not changeable)
With code level 2, it is possible to lock / unlock transmitters temporarily. This password is only given to the end user by the installer in problem situations. In order to lock / unlock the sensors you must first activate the service mode after code release.
Priority 3: (code 4321, is settable in the maintenance information menu)
It is only intended to update the maintenance date. Normally the code is only known by the service technician who has last changed it since it can be changed individually via priority 1.
Priority 4: (password 1234) (code not changeable)
Code level priority 4 allows the operator:
- to acknowledge faults,
- to set date and time,
- to configure and to operate the data logger option, after activation of the operation mode “Service Mode”:
- to read all parameters,
- to manually operate test function of the alarm relays (functional test of the connected units),
- to manually operate test function of the analog outputs (functional test of the connected units).

5.1 Fault Management
5.1.1 Acknowledge a Fault
5.1.2 Error Memory
The integrated fault management records the first 100 faults with date and time stamps in the menu „System Errors“. Additionally a record of the faults occurs in the “Error memory”, which can only be read and reset by the service technician.
A pending fault activates the fault indication relay. The yellow LED (Fault) starts to flash; the fault is displayed in plain text with date and time in the starting menu.
According to the directives of the gas measuring technique, accumulated errors are allowed to be acknowledged automatically. The automatic acknowledgment of a fault is only possible after having removed the cause!
The menu „Error Memory“ in the main menu “System Error” can only be opened via the code level priority 1.
In the error memory, the first 100 faults that have occurred and have already been acknowledged in the menu “System Error” are listed for the service technician in a power failure safe way.
Error Memory
Select menu “Error Memory”
In case of the fault of a connected sensor the alarms defined in the menu “MP Parameter” are activated in addition.
Attention:
This memory should always be read during maintenance, relevant faults should be tracked and entered in the service logbook, and finally the memory should be emptied.
