SPM Flex Gas Detector

Introduction

The SPM Flex gas detector is an extractive gas monitoring system that draws gas

samples locally or from a remote point to a Chemcassette detection system� A wide range of toxic gas Chemcassette cartridges are available that enable detection of gases used or generated in semiconductor manufacturing and industrial environments�

The SPM Flex gas detector, available in wall mounted and portable versions, locally displays gas concentration, alarm, fault and status information via its backlit color LCD and LEDs� A simple to use 4-button keypad adjacent to the display provides the ability to set-up, review, operate and make changes to the detector’s configuration� The intuitive display and menu structure are designed to require minimal training� The SPM Flex has a local audio alarm with user-configurable output levels� The detector can be used both indoors and outdoors in a wide range of weather conditions�

The detector has flexible power and communications capabilities� These include 3 on-board relays, 4-20 mA analog output and Modbus/TCP outputs for signal and service connectivity� The gas detector is equipped with a USB port for configuration-sharing firmware updates and data downloads� For web-enabled devices, web pages are available via the Ethernet port�

tape-based optical gas

Standard operation conditions

The SPM Flex gas detector is designed for use in temperatures between 32ºF and 104ºF (0ºC and 40ºC) and relative humidities between 0 and 100% (the relative humidities are limited by tape and calibration)� The sample line will require additional hardware to remove moisture in high relative humidity conditions where condensing may occur (the sample must be non-condensing)� Dry conditions may require humidification�

High-altitude applications

The SPM Flex pump is optimized for operation at altitudes between –1000 feet (–305 meters) and 3000 ft� (945 m) above sea level� At altitudes above 3,000 ft� (915 m), up to a maximum of 6,000 ft� (1,830 m), contact Honeywell Analytics for calibration� (At 6,000 feet, pump capacity is reduced 18% and a flow-system adjustment to the bypass valve is required� This must be performed by a Honeywell Analytics certified technician� Contact Customer Service�)

SPM Flex Gas Detector

Battery operation

The SPM Flex gas detector is supplied with a power supply/charger than can connect the detector’s power connection and a standard wall outlet� (Ensure that the correct power cable has been ordered for local operation�) The power supply/ charger is designed for indoor, dry-location use only� The lithium-ion battery pack provides continuous operation of 6+ hours, depending on sampling conditions and unit configuration� The battery’s charge time is typically 4 hours� The detector can be operated while its battery is being charged (this may increase the charge time)� Because batteries discharge slowly when not in use, Honeywell Analytics recommends keeping the detector connected to the power supply/ charger when not in use�

WARNING

• The battery is not field-replaceable� Return the unit to Honeywell Analytics if a battery replacement is necessary�

• Risk of fire and burns� Do not open, crush, heat above 140ºF (60ºC), or incinerate the battery� Follow manufacturer’s instructions�

How to extend battery life

Power consumption is optimized to extend battery life when not in monitor mode� In addition, the unit should not be exposed to extreme temperatures which shortens battery life� The time before recharging is required can be extended by taking the detector out of monitor mode when it is not in use�

How to recharge an overly-discharged battery

If the battery indicates 0% charge and does not appear to be charging when plugged into the power supply, it may be overly discharged� Follow these steps:

1� Verify that the latest software has been installed� The detector’s software

version can be found by navigating to the menu� If necessary, the current software can be downloaded from the SPM Flex section of the Honeywell Analytics website (see page 7)� Install the new software from a USB flash drive by following the prompts in the

Program

2� Turn the detector off and then power it up again� This will reinitiate the

charging circuit� Initially (until the battery reaches the normal charge range), the detector will slow charge� The process can take 6 hours�
