Installing Dräger Polytron 7500
Preparing for installation
The performance and effectiveness of the entire system depends essentially on the
position chosen for installing the transmitter.
The following should be noted during installation:
— Local requirements and regulations governing the installation of gas measuring
systems.
— Relevant regulations concerning the connection and routing of electric power
supply and signal lines.
— The full scope of environmental factors to which the Polytron 7500 may be ex-
posed (ambient conditions: see Technical Data, page 63).
— The specific uses (e.g. possible leaks).
— All other factors and conditions which could have a negative effect on the instal-
lation and operation of the system.
— Physical properties of the gas to be measured:
For gases with a density lower than that of air, the gas intake must be located
above any possible leak or at the highest point at which large concentrations of
gas may occur.
For gases and vapours with a density greater than that of air, the gas intake must
be located below a possible leak or at the lowest point at which such gases and
vapours may occur.
The humidity of the gas to be measured must be between 20 and 90 % relative
humidity.

Polytron 7500 calculates, from the selected calibration interval (see page 58)
when the next calibration is due.
Specific calibration data for the sensor, see the Instructions for Use for the Dräger
sensor.
At the latest every twelve months:
● Inspection by specialists.
The inspection intervals must be established in each individual case and short-
ened if necessary, depending on technical safety considerations, engineering
conditions and the technical requirements of the equipment.
● We recommend that a service contract be obtained with Dräger Safety and that
all repairs also be carried out by them.
● In order to check for leaks, measure the flow at the inlet point and behind the
Polytron 7500.
As required:
● Replace the sensor, page 23.
● Replace the pump, page 25.
● Replace the pyrolysis oven, page 26.
● Replace the internal dust filter, page 27.

Maintenance
Calibrating the unit
— Ensure that the sensor is warmed up before it is calibrated. Warming-up time: see
the Instructions for Use for the DrägerSensor.
— The Polytron 7500 can be calibrated by the operator on site.
— For critical applications, the calibration intervals are to be defined in accordance
with the recommendations in EN 500731) or. EN45544-42) and national regulations.
Note the calibration sequence!
● First check the zero point and calibrate it if necessary, immediately after this,
check the sensitivity and adjust it as necessary.
— Never calibrate the sensitivity before calibrating the zero point.
— Calibration cannot be carried out if the date and time are not set.
● Setting the date and time, page 48.
— Calibration menu, page 41 to page 39
— Zero gas and calibration gas: See the related information in the Instructions for
Use for the DrägerSensor.
Caution:
Calibration gas must not be inhaled. Risk to health!
Care must be taken about the risks which can arise when using test gas; hazard
instructions and safety advice must be observed.
For details, see appropriate Safety Sheets.
Setting up the unit
● Individual settings can be made:
— via the keypad in menu mode
— via the HART interface,
— with the Dräger Hand Held Terminal (DHHT)
Note:
After setting up the unit automatically with the copy function of the Dräger
Hand Held Terminals, the plausibility of the settings must be checked.

Sub-menu » Zero. calibration «
The sub-menu » Zero calibration « contains the functions for calibrating / adjusting
the zero point of the installed sensor.
Zero point calibration / adjustment
The zero point can be calibrated without the use of zero gas when the ambient air is
free from measuring gas and other interfering gases. Alternatively:
● Provide zero gas with a flow rate of 1.5 L/min via a T-piece to the inlet connection.
Connect a hose with a length of 0.5 m and a diameter which is larger than the
hose for the Polytron 7500 to the third connection of the T-piece.
Attention! Never release zero gas directly (without T-piece) from a compressed air cylinder!

HART interface
This group contains the setting functions for the HART interface.
– Polling address
The polling address configures the unit either for the analogue mode (4 to 20 mA) or
the multidrop mode. Setting the polling address to " 0 " enables the analogue mode
(4 to 20 mA). To enter multidrop mode, the polling address must be set to a value in
the range from " 1 " to " 15 ", which disables the analogue interface and freezes it to
a constant current of approx. 3 mA. In order to enable the central controller to
request the unique identifier (unambiguous HART address) using HART command
#0, all Polytron 7500s located on one cable trunk need to be configured with a different polling address. It is advisable to choose a subsequent series of addresses,
starting with address " 1 ".
This setting corresponds to the HART command #6 ("Write Polling Address").

knowledge of the unique identifier is necessary only for systems which are not able
to read out the unique identifier with the HART command #0 in the short-frame format or the HART command #11. The display corresponds to the address returned by
the HART command #0 ("Read Unique Identifier") or #11 ("Read Unique Identifier

The menu » Settings «
Sub-menu » Sensor «
The sub-menu » Sensor « can be used to make various settings for the installed sensor.
Change sensor
— This function can be used to change a sensor while the unit is running without
sending a fault alarm to the control unit. It also ensures that all sensor data currently in the microprocessor can be saved to the EEPROM of the sensor before
the sensor plug is disconnected.
— In principle, a sensor can be replaced at any time. However, for technical safety
reasons, a fault alarm will be activated until a new sensor is connected, in case
a sensor is disconnected accidentally.
● Select the menu items » Settings «, » Sensor « and » Change sensor « in this or-
der, pressing the » « key after each selection.
— The maintenance signal is transmitted on the interface and the message
» Please remove sensor « is displayed.
● Remove the old sensor and plug in the new one (see page 23).
When the new sensor has been installed:
● The message » Loading database, please wait « is displayed.
OK
When the sensor data have been loaded:
— The message » Database is loaded « is displayed.
● Select » Back to menu « and press the » « key.
OK
The maintenance signal on the interface remains active until the sensor has
warmed up.
The duration of the warming-up period depends on the type of sensor and its history.
If, for example, the sensor had already been warmed up on another unit and it was
disconnected only for a short time, the warming-up period may be shorter than that
shown in the Instructions for Use for the sensor.
See the operating instructions for the sensor for the maximum warming-up period.
see the Instructions for Use for the sensor.
If the old sensor is replaced with an identical sensor (with the same Part No.), the
configuration of the Polytron 7500 (gas type, measuring range, calibration gas, calibration interval) remains unchanged.
Otherwise, the default values for the sensor (see Instructions for Use for the DrägerSensor) are used by the Polytron 7500 if the sensor-lock function (page 57) is disabled.
Autocalibration setting
