1 Intended Use
The PolyGard2 MGC2 is designed for detection and warning detection of toxic, combustible or dangerous
atmosphere in many commercial and industrial applications.
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 EN50 082).
The PolyGard2 Multi Gas Controller MGC2 must not be used in potentially explosive atmospheres. The
sensor must only be employed in areas within the environmental conditions specified in the Technical Data.
2 Functional Description
2.1 General
The Multi-Gas-Controller is designed for the connection of max. three analog sensors with 4-20 mA signal and
eight Honeywell sensors.
The controller monitors the measured values and activates the alarm relays if the set local alarm thresholds for
pre-alarm and main alert have been exceeded or if there are the alarm messages coming from the eight digital
sensors via RS-485 communication.
The SIL 2 compliant self-monitoring function in the MGC2 activates the fault message in case of an internal
error as well as in case of a fault at the 4-20 mA input / output current signals or if there is a communication
error to the digital sensors.
Other options such as three-color status LED, warning buzzer, digital input for acknowledgment or test function
ensure proper adaptation to the wide range of applications in gas detection technology.

3 Installation
Electronics can be destroyed by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Therefore, the installation work
should be done only by persons connected to ground, e. g. with a wrist strap connected to ground
or by standing on a conductive floor (acc. to DIN EN 100015).
3.1 Mounting Instructions
When choosing the mounting site please pay attention to the following:
• Choose mounting location of the sensor according to the local regulations.
• Mount the sensor at a location with minimum vibration and minimum variation in temperature (avoid
direct sunlight).
• Avoid locations where water, oil etc. may influence proper operation and where mechanical damage
might be possible.
• Provide adequate space around the sensor for maintenance and calibration work.
• Observe possible local instructions.
3.2 Installation Work
Assembly work must only be carried out under gas-free conditions.
Do not drill holes in the housing. Use only the providing know-outs.
• Open housing cover.
• Break out the required pre-embossed knockouts on the housing for cable glands and Sensor
Cartridge.
• Cables are introduced from above.
• The MGC2 Controller is fixed to the wall through the four marked mounting points at the back side of
the housing. These mounting points are accessible after opening the housing. See figure below.

4 Electrical Connection
Assembly work must only be carried out under gas-free conditions!
Consider static electricity instructions (ESD)!
4.1 Wiring
• The technical requirements and regulations for wiring, electrical safety, as well as project specific and
environmental and local conditions etc. must be observed when mounting.
• We recommend the following cable types1:
Europe USA / Canada
Power supply 230 V NYM-J 3 x 1.5 mm
2
14 AWG / 300 V
Alarm message 230 V (also possible together with power supply) NYM-J X x 1.5 mm
2
14 AWG / 300 V
Signal message, bus connection, warning devices 24 V J-Y(St)Y 2x2 x 0.8 mm2 min. 300 V
Possibly connected external analog transmitters J-Y(St)Y 2x2 x 0.8 mm
2
min. 300 V
1
The recommendation does not consider local conditions such as fire protection etc.
• Use copper conductors only for the terminal is only for connection to copper wire.
• Avoid any influence of external interferences by using shielded cables for the bus line, but do not
connect the shield.
• Remove the cable isolation as short as possible. It is important to ensure that bare wires, e.g. wire
shields do not come into contact with the mounted PCB (risk of short-circuit).
• Low voltage wire and mains connected wire must be fixed separately by cable ties or similar, to secure
against looseness.
• Analog sensors are connected directly to the spring type terminals of the module. The correct polarity
must be observed.
• The alarm signals are available as voltage-free change-over contacts. If required, the voltage supply is
available at the terminal L.
The exact position of the terminals for the sensors and alarm relays is shown in the connection diagrams.

8.1 Fault Management
A pending fault activates the yellow LED (Fault).
The integrated fault management records the first 50 occurred faults with time
stamps in the menu “System Errors”. The timestamp shows the days, hours and
minutes that have elapsed since the fault has occurred.
Additionally, a record of the faults occurs in the “Error memory”, which can only be read and deleted by the
service technician (code level 1 (3)).
8.1.1 Error Memory
The menu “Error Memory” in the main menu “System Errors” can only be opened via the code level priority 1.
In the error memory, the first 50 faults that have occurred and have already been acknowledged in the menu
“Error Status” are listed for the service technician in a power failure safe way.
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.
8.1.2 System Messages and System Errors
The warning device includes a diagnostic module for the continuous monitoring of the relevant functions and
parameters as well as a processor-independent watchdog. These features set the device into the safe mode
"Fault" in case of an internal or external error. The following table shows all possible errors, possible causes,
the related troubleshooting and the resulting device status.
Once the cause has been eliminated, the warning device restarts with the diagnostic mode on its own. It isn’t
necessary to acknowledge the error message. In the event of an error, the error is output as plain text in the
version with display instead of the measured value and in the Error status menu. In case of two or more errors,
the value is output with a cumulative, bit-coded error code.

The parameter setting “Energized” cannot be changed.
The terms energized / de-energized come from the terms “energized / de-energized to trip” principle used for
safety circuits. The terms refer to the activation of the relay coil, not to the relay contacts (as they are executed
as changeover contacts and available in both principles).
The LEDs at the modules show the state in analogy. (LED off -> relay coil current-free)

8.6.3 Relay Function Static / Flashing
Relay 3:
The parameter setting “No” (cannot be changed).
The function "Flashing" offers a connection option for warning devices to improve visibility. The frequency is
about 1 second with an impulse / pause rate of 1:1.
If “Flashing” is set, the output circuit mustn’t be used as a safe output any more.
The combination of relay mode energized with flashing operation makes no sense and is therefore suppressed.

8.7.3 Alarm Thresholds / Hysteresis
For each measuring point four alarm thresholds are available for free definition. If the gas concentration is
higher than the set alarm threshold, the associated alarm is activated. If the gas concentration falls below the
alarm threshold minus the hysteresis the alarm is reset again. In the mode “Alarm at falling” the corresponding
alarm is set in case of falling below the set alarm threshold and reset again when exceeding the threshold plus
hysteresis.
The presentation of the alarm thresholds depends on the set measuring range: See chapter Gas Type and
Measuring Range.
The alarm thresholds are freely selectable in the range from 0 to 100 % of the measuring range.
The alarm threshold is only stored, if the value is ≥ than the lower alarm threshold
Unused alarm thresholds have to be defined with 0, in order to avoid undesired alarms.
Higher-level alarms automatically activate the lower-level alarms.
Lowest hysteresis: 3 % of the lowest alarm threshold
Highest hysteresis: 50 % of the lowest alarm threshold

8.8.3 Average Function
In the menu “Average Time” you can define the time base for the calculation of the arithmetic average value
(30 measurements within the time base). This average value can be used for alarm evaluation as an alternative
to the current value. The selection which value should be used for evaluation is defined separately for each
alarm in the menu “Alarm Threshold X”. In the average mode, the average value is indicated in the menu
“Measuring Values” next to the current value.
The alarm evaluation of the operating mode “Average Value” is overlaid by the current value, when the current
value exceeds the alarm threshold defined in the menu “AV-Overlay”. The overlay is delayed by the time factor
defined in this menu. The average overlay function is only available for the gas type CO.

8.8.4 Power On Time
Gas sensors need a warm-up time, until the chemical process of the sensor reaches stable conditions. During
this running-in period the sensor signal can lead to an unwanted triggering of a pseudo alarm. Therefore, the
Power On time is started at each basic unit and each sensor head after power-on or voltage recovery. While
this time is running out, the device is in special mode and doesn’t activate alarms. The Power On time appears
in the starting menu. During this phase the sensor head transmits "Warm-up time" instead of the measured
value.
The Power On Time of the individual components may be different. Only when the longest time has expired,
the system starts the measuring operation.

8.8.5 Deadband
The unwanted noise of the measured value around the zero point, caused by the basic drift of the sensor, can
be suppressed by activating a deadband with a range of 0% to 15% of the measuring range depending on
device.
If the measured value is within the set % value, the display shows 0. Natural zero-point fluctuations of sensors
downwards or upwards can thus be suppressed in the display. Default setting 0 means deadband deactivated.
The suppression also affects the analog output, because the measured value must not assume a different
display depending on the output.
When opening the calibration mode, the deadband function switches off automatically.

8.8.6 AO Function
This menu is for the configuration of the analog output.
After registration, each analog output checks the current signal for plausibility. Signal deviations of more than
5% from the nominal value will generate an error message (causes: short circuit or interruption of cable,
actuator not connected).
The steepness of the current signal can be adjusted in the range of 10 to 100% in case of local control.
If several measuring points are assigned, you can define whether the minimum, the maximum or the average
of all the assigned signals is output. It is likewise possible to define which signal of the measuring points
(source) is output.
If the 4 - 20 mA signal is used as a safe signal (SIL level), the following mandatory parameters must be
used:
Selection of analog signal: 100: 100 % gas signal = 20 mA (standard signal)
Selection source: CF: Source current value signal with fault message
Selection of operating mode: Max: Output of the maximum value of the assigned MP

8.8.7 Relay Multiplication
With the relay multiplication table, it is possible to assign an additional alarm relay to an alarm. This
corresponds in the end to one multiplication of the source alarm situation per entry.
The additional relay follows the alarm status of the source but uses its own relay parameters to allow
different needs of the doubled relay. So, the source relay can be configured, for example, as safety
function in de-energized mode, but the doubled relay can be declared with flashing function or as horn
function.
There is a maximum of two entries for IN relays and OUT relays. Thus, it is possible to expand one relay
to two others or to double max. two relays.
In the column IN (source), you can set the relay assigned to an alarm in the menu MP Parameter.
In the column OUT (target), you can enter the relay needed in addition.
Note:
Manual intervention in the menu Relay Status or override in external ON or OFF by external DI do not
count as alarm status, so they do only affect the IN relay. If this is also desired for the OUT relays, it has
to be configured separately for each OUT relay.

8.10 Test Function for Relays
In this menu, the alarm relays can be manually turned on and off in order to test their function.
This menu is only available in special mode.
The manual operation takes priority over activation by a gas alarm. However, the external activation of the
alarm relays via a digital input takes priority over the manual test function.
The test mode simulates an alarm for the relay and the relay accepts the alarm status. The test function is
deleted by selecting "Automatic" or by exiting the Special Mode.
The testing is possible via code level 1, 3 and 4.

9 Commissioning
9.1 General Notes
Only trained technicians should perform the following when commissioning:
• Check for correct mounting location.
• Check if connection is correct according to connection diagram.
• Check power voltage.
For fast and comfortable commissioning, we recommend proceeding as follows. For digital devices with selfmonitoring all internal errors are visible via the LED. All other error sources often have their origins in the field,
because it is here where most of the causes for problems in the field bus communication appear.
9.2 Visual Inspection
• Right cable type used.
• Correct mounting height according to definition in Mounting.
• Led status
9.3 Selection Gas Type with Unit
The selection of the desired and connected gas sensor type is made by pre-set values.
If other gas sensor types are connected, you have to adjust them with the display, because otherwise the
device will show wrong measuring values.

11 Routine Maintenance and Scheduled Testing
This chapter describes how to perform common maintenance operations and system testing. The required
frequency of inspection and maintenance will depend on local site conditions and will need to be established
through experience. Please refer to IEC/EN 60079-29-2 or other local or national regulations for guidance on
establishing an appropriate maintenance routine.
11.1 Routine Maintenance
CAUTION
Test outputs will be generated, and relays will be activated during testing.
Ensure that relay activated output systems (i.e. emergency deluge / sirens etc.) are isolated before starting the
Relay and mA Output tests.
CAUTION
While an Operator could Force a channel, a Service password is required to isolate services, carry out tests,
Clear Force, and restore the system to full operational status.
For these reasons Operators should carry out visual inspections and cleaning only, unless under the direct
supervision of the Service engineer.
Weekly Checks
• Visually inspect all cables and conduits for loose connections, security of attachment, and signs of damage.
• Wipe the PolyGard2 Multi-Gas Controller with a soft damp cloth or use PC Screen cleaner.
• Check for dust contamination.
• Periodically exercise the outputs to confirm their functionality (see Caution above).
11.2 Routine Testing
It is normal practice to sound site alarms weekly, both to check they work and to accustom personnel to the
sound they make.
As it involves isolating / inhibiting emergency systems during testing, it might be more prudent to test the
PolyGard2 relays and mA output only on a planned monthly basis.
Always have alternative safety arrangements in place and alert your personnel before and during testing.
Exercising the Audio/Visual Alarms
Audio/visual alarms can be tested by switching the Dedicated Alarms On.
Exercising the Relays
If the relays are switching main voltages, hazardous live terminals may be present. Ensure that all mains
current is isolated and dissipated before touching live terminals.
Relay output channels can be tested by forcing the relays to an active state.
Checking the mA Output
Milliamp (mA) output can be tested by forcing the mA output.
Mandatory Warning
WARNING
FOR SAFETY REASONS THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE OPERATED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY.
READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL COMPLETELY BEFORE OPERATING OR
SERVICING THE EQUIPMENT.
