2.2Functional description
The device is operated from a 10 to 30 volt DC supply.
The current gas concentration, status messages and menu
items are shown on a backlit LCD display and by three colored
LEDs. The measured gas concentration is output as a 4 to
20 mA analog signal or a digital HART
®
signal1 After the power
is switched on, the device detects whether the 4-20 mA
interface is to be operated as a current source or a current
sink. The flexible design permits fitting even in places that are
difficult to access. The Dräger PIR 7000/7200 can be fitted on
either side of the of the equipment and installation with up to
30 m between the sensing head and the PIR 7000/7200 is
possible. In the variant with the integrated e-Box with the
"increased safety" protection class, the device can be easily
connected to the electrical field wiring. The device can be
configured, calibrated and serviced without declassification of
the area.
2.3Intended use
The Dräger Polytron 87x0 is an explosion proof transmitter for
continuous monitoring of the concentration of gases and vapors
containing hydrocarbons or carbon dioxide. The housing for the
device consists of robust, non-corroding stainless steel or
aluminum and is suitable for indoor or outdoor applications.
The unit can be connected to a Dräger monitoring system or
a programmable logic controller (PLC) by means of a sealed
conduit or an appropriately approved cable gland. With the
optionally integrated relay module, the device can be operated
without a central controller (with additional local alarm
signalling). The device is designed for fixed installation and is
approved for use in potentially explosive atmospheres,
see chapter 2.5 on page 6.

temperature) or dust of Groups IIIA, IIIB or IIIC may occur.
Hazardous areas classified by divisions:
The device is only designed for use in potentially explosive
atmospheres of Classes I&II, Div. 1 or 2, for which
a temperature range as specified on the device must be
observed and in which gases or dust of Groups A, B, C, D or
E, F, G and Temperature Classes T4 or T6 (depending on
maximum ambient temperature) may occur.

Installation
3Installation
3.1General information for the installation
The selection of a suitable mounting location is crucial for the
effectiveness and performance of the entire system.
Considerable thought must be given to every detail of
installation, particularly:
z the local and national rules and regulations for the
installation of gas monitoring systems,
z the applicable regulations for running and connecting
power and signal cables to gas monitoring systems,
z the full extent of environmental influences to which the
device will be subjected,
z the physical properties of the gases and vapors to be
measured,
z the details of the particular application (e.g., potential
leaks, air movements/flows, etc.),
z accessibility for required maintenance activities,
z the geometric of the accessories that are used with
the system,
z all other limiting factors and stipulations that may affect the
installation of the system.
z For installation without a conduit, an approved cable gland
(e.g. Hawke A501/421/A/¾" NPT or equivalent) must be
used (see chapter 13 on page 32). To increase the RF
interference immunity, it may be necessary to connect the
cable screen to the cable gland and to the control unit.
z The explosion proof enclosure has three ¾" NPT
connections, which can be used for field wiring, the direct
attachment of a sensor or wiring an external sensor. For the
correct tightening torques for cable bushings, plugs and
sensors, see chapter 13 on page 32.
z The secondary are supposed to be supplied from an
isolating source (does not apply to relay contacts).
z The optional e-Box has up to four 20 mm connections,
which can be used for field wiring or wiring an external
sensor. The permissible cable diameter is 7 to 12 mm.
z If the device is installed in locations where ambient
temperatures of over 55 °C prevail, appropriate cables
which are designed for use at temperatures of 25 °C above
the maximum ambient temperature must be used.
z Strip back the insulation on conductors by 5 to 7 mm.
z Connect the cable as shown in Chapter 3.5 on page 8
(shown here also with protective ground).
z The use of a mounting spacer (Order Number 68 12 617)
is recommended as a matter of principle if the device is to
be mounted on a wall or on a very uneven substrate.
z The connecting wires for the optional relay module must be
selected and fused according to the rated voltages,
currents and environmental conditions.
z When stranded conductors are used, an end ferrule must
also be used.
3.2Restrictions on the installation
z The device requires a DC voltage between 10 and 30 V.
The minimum supply voltage of 10 V and the cross-section
of the conductors used determine the distance of the
device from the supply or the central controller
(see chapter 13 on page 32). The device is designed for
cables of sizes 12 to 24 AWG (0.2 to 2.5 mm
2
). A three-
wire, screened cable must be used as a minimum.
z The device must not be subjected to any radiant heat
(e.g. direct sunlight) as this may result in a temperature rise
above the specified thresholds (see chapter 13 on
page 32). The use of a reflective screen is recommended.
z If a splash guard (Order Number 68 11 911 or 68 11 912) is
used, it is essential to make sure that the LEDs on the
status display are aligned vertically and the "Dräger" logo
on the splash guard is aligned horizontally. A maximum
deviation of ±10 degrees from the horizontal position is
permissible. Greater deviations will increase the response
time (see Instructions for Use for the PIR 7000/7200).
z Observe the preferred position: The PIR 7000/7200 must
be aligned so that the lights on the status display are above
one another. At the same time, the "Dräger" lettering on the
splash guard must read horizontally. A deviation from the
horizontal of ±10° maximum is permissible.
1
00333300.eps
z Any other alignment is only permissible if the PIR 7000/
7200 is used without a splash guard, e.g. applications in
exhaust ducts. When the sensor is fitted in an exhaust duct,
there is an increased risk that residues will form on the
optical surfaces.
z The housing is weather resistant and suitable for outdoor
applications. The use of the optional splash guard is
recommended to protect the sensor from water and dust.
z The device must be installed and operated in an
environment which conforms to the stated specifications
(see chapter 13 on page 32).
z To insure proper operation of the device, the impedance of
the 4 to 20 mA signal loop must not exceed 500 ohms.
Depending on the operating voltage and according to the
application (e.g. HART operation), certain minimum
impedances must be adhered to (see chapter 3.3 on
page 8). The conductors for the power supply must have
an adequately low resistance to insure the correct supply
voltage at the device.

3.4Mechanical installation
z Use the supplied drilling template for mounting on a wall.
z The mounting surface should be even and free of
sharp edges.
z Dräger recommends using M6 Allen bolts.
z Take care that the conditions at the mounting location do
not result in the gas feed openings of the PIR 7000/7200
being covered or obstructed.
z The openings must be readily accessible to the
surrounding atmosphere.
NOTICE
i

There must be a free space of 5 cm next to the
PIR 7000/7200 to permit fitting/removal of the splash
guard and the later fitting of accessories.
To ensure an adequate distance between the
PIR 7000/7200 and the wall, use the mounting
spacer (Order Number 68 12 617).

3.5.2Version with relays
WARNING
!
At voltages >30 V AC or >42.4 V DC, the relay cables
must be enclosed in protective tubing, or doubleinsulated cables must be used.
When the relay module is fitted, the wires for the alarm device
are connected to the 9-way plug.
1. Disconnect the 9-way plug on the rear of the main
electronics.
2. Connect the wires for Alarm Relay 1, Alarm Relay 2 and the
Fault relay to the corresponding terminals, (see following
table of connections for the 9-way plug).
3. The relays are energized when the default settings are used
and in the measurement mode. This insures "fail-safe"
operation. The terminal assignments in the connection table
below apply when the default settings are used and in
measuring mode (see chapter 4.6 on page 13).
4. Fit the plug back in the socket and tighten the screws.
