2.3 Safety equipment / protective measures
Danger posed by
electrical equipment
Preventive measures to
improve operational
safety
Avoidance of
consequential damages
Protection against
escaping gas from the
gas-bearing duct
The LT 2/KS1-DK system parts constitute equipment for use in industrial power
installations. Switch off the supply voltage to the mains cables when working on
mains connections or parts that conduct mains voltage. Refit any protection
against electric shock that has been removed before switching on the supply
voltage.
Unskilled use or inexpert handling can result in risks to health or material
damages. Therefore, always observe the relevant safety notes to prevent
damage.
If the LT 2/KS1-DK is employed as a sensor in combination with closed and openloop control systems, the plant operator must ensure that a failure or fault in the
LT 2/KS1-DK cannot result in impermissible damages or dangerous operating
states.
In order to prevent faults that may themselves result in direct or indirect personal
injury or material damages, the plant operator must ensure that:
• The responsible maintenance personnel can be notified at any time and as
quickly as possible
• Maintenance personnel are trained to react appropriately to faults in the
LT 2/KS1-DK and associated system malfunctions
• The faulty equipment is switched off immediately in cases of uncertainty
• Switching off equipment does not result in direct consequential faults
In order to prevent faults that may themselves result in direct or indirect personal
injury or material damages, take care to ensure that qualified personnel evaluate
the faults and initiate the appropriate measures.
The KS1-DK combination probe is mounted directly on the gas-bearing duct by
means of a counter-flange. If the probe is detached, depending on the system and particularly in the case of excess pressure - aggressive and/or hot gas may
flow out of the duct and severely harm the health of unprotected operators, if
suitable protective measures have not previously been introduced.
WARNING
In the event of excess pressure and temperatures higher than 200 °C in the gas
duct, gas escapes when the KS1-DK combination probe is removed.
• Switch off the system before opening; if this is not possible, wear protective
clothing and a protective mask.
• Set up warning signs to this effect in the vicinity of the probe mounting point.
The LT 2/KS1-DK lambda transmitter and KS1-DK combination probe constitute a
high-quality electronic measuring system. Prudent behaviour is therefore essential
during all measures, on shutdown, transport and storage.
CAUTION!
Do not switch off the LT 2/KS1-DK lambda transmitter while the KS1-DK
combination probe is still mounted, even if the associated system has been shut
down. Residual gases lead to corrosion and may damage system parts.
Do not store devices in the open air without protection! Always store in a dry place
and, if possible, in the original packaging.
Upon deinstallation, protect cable ends and connectors against corrosion and dirt.
Corroded connectors can lead to malfunctions.
Transport in the original packaging when possible
The LT 2/KS1-DK lambda transmitter has also been designed under consideration of
ecological aspects. The assemblies can easily be separated from each other into
different material types, and therefore put aside for recycling in this sorted condition.

3.4 Probe method of functioning - CO/H2-sensitive electrode
Flammable constituents are, like oxygen molecules, adsorbed on the electrode and
diffuse to the “three-phase limit” formed by measuring gas, the electrode and
zirconium dioxide. In addition to the Nernst voltage U

additional direct voltage U

However, the KS1-DK combination probe must never be operated when too cold, as
otherwise the oxidising constituents will influence the O

We therefore recommend calibrating the characteristic in line with the specific system

A further indicator for unburned residues (CO/H

do the dynamics. Figure 4 below plots the rise of the sensor signal versus the

confusion, we therefore recommend that you use the [ change ] function.
4.6.4 Menu function
[ psw ] opens the sub-menu for password entry, and the Operation* access level is
displayed. The functions shown in the menu bar are as follows:
• [ exit ]returns to the [ par ] menu
• [ clear ]resets the access level to Operation level*
• [ ---- ] moves to the previous password input letter of the alphabet.
• [ ++++ ] moves to the next password input letter of the alphabet.
The cursor keys (up, down) have the same function as [ ++++ ] and [ ---- ]. Use right
and left to move the input sign along the password. If the correct password is entered,
the appropriate access level is displayed and is maintained when the menu is exited
with [ exit ]. If no keys are pressed for a longer period, the access level resets itself to
Operation level.*
* If the password for Customer level is still at the factory setting, the systems goes to
Customer level instead.

4.6.5 Menu function
[ view ] opens the Parameter menu. The functions of the menu bar are as follows:
[ exit ] returns to the [ par ] menu function.
[ s/l ] changes the display format:
Short: Only the number of the parameter and the current value are displayed.
Medium: A brief description is displayed in addition to the parameter number and the
current value.
Long: In addition to the Medium display, a status bar for the parameters is shown.
[ group - ] pages back by one parameter group.
[ group+ ] pages forwards by one parameter group.
All the available parameter groups are set out in the appendix.
The cursor keys (left, right) correspond to the key function: [ group- ] or [ group+ ]
If not all parameters of a group are displayed in the viewing window, this situation is
indicated by flashing arrows in the right-hand margin. You can move and view the
parameters using the cursor keys (up, down).
Here is an example of the status bar shown with the Long display:
• *kw*_30_[12 ,42 ]_____
The asterisks ‘ * ‘ or ‘__’ are fill characters.
• “k” indicates Customer access level (o = Operation, c = Customer, s = Service, f
= Factory)
• “w” shows the type of parameter (write = can be edited, read = read only)
• “30” is the ‘default’ value (basic value in EPROM)
• “[ 12 ; 42 ]” is the possible range within which the parameters can be changed
With some parameters, no ‘default’ value or interval is shown!

4.6.6 Menu function
[ change ] allows you to change parameter values. The sub-menu in the menu bar is
the same as the [ view ] menu.
But unlike this, the parameter to be changed is shown inverted (pale font on dark
background). Select the parameter using the cursor keys (up, down). Then press
[ENTER] to activate Edit (Change) mode. The parameter value flashes while it is
being edited.
A selected parameter is displayed in three ways:
Inverse display
→ Parameter can be changed
Bordered display
→ Parameter cannot be changed
Blinking display
→ Edit (Change) mode is active
You can now change the parameter value using the cursor keys (up, down, and left
and right for values with several characters). The functions in the menu bar are as
follows:
• [ esc ] returns to the [ change ] menu without confirming the
changed parameter.
• [ dflt ] resets the ‘default’ (factory-set) value.
• [ OK ] confirms the changed value and returns to the [ change ]
or [ENTER] menu.
This takes you back to the [ change ] menu. You can then open and change other
parameters.

4.6.7 Menu function
The [diag] key switches the screen to the display of warnings and faults. You can
select individual warnings, faults or limit values using the cursor keys (up, down).
NOTE:
Limit values are only displayed if they have been activated via the parameters
930/940/950/960 (Service level).
The selected warning or fault, which is displayed inverted, can now be acknowledged
or reset with ENTER.
When you select a limit
value with the cursor and
then press Enter, the
display switches to the
Limit Value menu.
If you select “maint.”, the
LT 2/KS1-DK can be
switched to Maintenance
mode, as an alternative to
using the maintenance
switch on the processor
board.
If you select “remote”,
remote display is possible
via LSB with a 2nd LT. To
achieve this, the master LT
must have the LSB address
10, the slave LT the LSB
address 9 (param. 3801).
If you select “hist”, a fault
and warning history is
displayed. Setting, date and
time param. 70...72.
NOTE:
Not all warnings and faults can be reset by acknowledging them - the cause of the
warning or fault may have to be corrected first.
