1 Outline of the Product

Preface

Thank you for choosing our OX-600 indoor oxygen monitor (hereinafter referred to as the monitor).
Please check that the model number of the product you purchased is included in the specifications on
this manual.
This manual describes the monitor’s specifications and how to use the monitor properly. Read and
understand the operating manual and use this product as described in this manual.
Note that the contents of this manual are subject to change without notice for product improvement. It
is also prohibited to copy or reproduce this manual, in whole or in part, without permission.
Regardless of warranty period, we shall not make any indemnification for accidents and damage
caused by using the monitor.
Make sure to read the warranty policy specified on the warranty.

Purpose of use

This indoor oxygen monitor measures oxygen in the air and issues an alarm using the buzzer and
LCD backlight when oxygen concentration drops below a preset concentration (alarm setpoint). While
displaying measured oxygen concentration on the LCD, the monitor converts it to an analog signal of
4 - 20 mA or 0 - 1 V to output (only 0 - 1 V for the dry battery type) and outputs a two-step gas alarm
contact at a gas alarm state.
The monitor is a safety unit, not an analyzer which performs quantitative/qualitative
analysis/measurement for oxygen. Check the specifications before use and conduct measurement
properly in accordance with purposes.

2-2. War ning cases

Before turning on the monitor, always check that the voltage is compliant with the specifications. Operating on an u ns t ab l e power supply may cause malfunctions.
When air calibration is performed, check the atmosphere for freshness before beginning it. If interference gases exist, th e a ir calibration ca nn o t b e per f or med properly, thus leading t o da n gers when an oxygen defi ciency occurs.
Do not oper ate th is m onitor in a p lace where c om bustibl e/ex plos ive gas es or vap ors are pres ent. Operating the monitor in such an environment will lead to extreme dangers.
Issuance of an oxygen d eficiency alarm indicates tha t there are ex treme dangers . Take proper actions base d o n your ju d g ment.
Perform spa n adj us tment at fixed in ter v a ls .
Make sure that the monitor is installed in a place where it is in contact with the atmosphere. If the
monitor is ins ta l l ed in a p l a c e wh ere it is in less con tact with the atmosphere, it m a y not d et ec t the correct ox yge n c onc en t r at i on , thus leading to an oxygen deficiency accident.
Do not run the power cable and remote sensor cable of the monitor in parallel with cables of high-frequency or high-voltage and other device's power cables.
If a cable of high-frequency or high-voltage and the power cable need to int e r sect wit h ea ch othe r, it should be orthogonally connected.
When wiring, be careful not to apply any stresses on the cables by pulling, tightening or twisting.
Do not disassemble/modify the monitor. It may invalidate the warranty of the performance.
Changing the s et t in gs wi th ou t un de r s t an d in g th em may cause alarm m alf unctions. Pleas e use the monitor prop er ly in accordance wit h t he operating man ua l .

2-3. Precaut io ns

Do not use a de vice, such as a transcei ver, which tr ansmits a radio wav e near the mon itor or its cables. It ma y affec t t he m easur em ent. If a tr ansc eive r or other radio wave transmitting device is used, it must be used in a place away from the monit or wh ere it does not disturb the monitor.
Restarting the monitor within five seconds after turning it off may cause errors.
This is not a control unit. It is not allowed to use the ex ternal output of t he monitor to co nt r o l ot h er
units.
This is a saf ety unit. N ever fail t o perform a regular maintenanc e to ens ure safet y. Contin uing to use the monitor without performing maintenanc e will compromise the sensitivity of the sensor, thus resulting in inaccurate gas detection.
Do not pick the sensor or buzzer opening with a sharp-pointed it em. T he u nit m ay m alfunc tion or get damaged, possibly resulting in incorrect measurements.
Do not let the m onit or dr aw in wa ter. D o n ot ins tal l the mon itor i n a place wher e the moni tor m a y get wet. Ignoring this may cause malfunction because the monitor is not water- and drip-proof.
This is a precis i on de v ice . Do not apply strong shock or vibration to the monitor.
When the c ase is open ed for wiri ng or other op eration , do not touch inner parts . W hen wiring, be
sure that excessive pressur e is n ot a pplied to the powe r ca b le and remote sensor cab l e.
Do not block the sensor vent.

Proper use of alarm contact
The alarm contact of the monitor is used to transmit signals to activate an external buzzer, alarm lamp or rotating lamp. Do not use it for controlling purpose (e.g., controlling the shutdown valve). The contacts can be configured as Form A or Form B but are factory set as Form A contacts and they are normally de-energized.
CAUTION
The b contact (break contact) under de-energized state may be open ed momen t ari ly by a phy sical
The specifications for the external output gas alarm contact of the monito r are based on th e re sistanc e load conditions. If inductive load is used at the alarm contact, the following errors will occur easily because counter electromotive force is generated at the contact.
• Deposition, defective ins u la t ion or defective contact at the relay contact
• Damage of any electric parts due to high-voltage generated inside the monitor
• Abnormal o perations by an out-of-control CPU
If load is to be activated, appropriate measures must be taken to stabilize the operation of the monitor and protect the alarm contact referring to the following information.
• Relay it with an ex ternal relay at a lower vo lt a g e of 120 VAC or below (contact amplification). At the same

12-1. Detection principle of galvanic cell type

By immersing p reci ou s meta l an d le ad i n el e ct rolyte and connecting t he m wi th a lea d w i re, a b at te ry can be made (galvanic cell). When oxygen passes through the barrier, deoxidizing reaction occurs at the precious metal electrode while oxidizing reaction occurs at the lead electrode. The electric current generate d by this reaction goes through load r esistance (ther mister), where it is converted in t o v oltage so that it can b e re ad. When the oxyge n c onc en t r at io n is decreased, deoxidizing reaction at the pr ecious metal elec tr o d e is also decreased , th us l o wering the voltage at bo t h en ds of th e thermister.
Important precautions
1. The readings of the monitor fluctuate slightly in response to changes in the air pressure. In particular, be careful of alarm activation when a low air pressure is brought in by typhoon, etc. In addition, it may be fluctuated by environmental (temperature, humidity, etc.) changes in the installation site.
2. The alarm must be set within a range where the performance of the monitor can be ensured. The standard alarm setpoint values are 18 vol% for the first and 19 vol% for the second.
3. This is a safety unit. This is not a control unit. The alarm contact output of the monitor must be used for an external alarm lamp/buzzer, while the analog signa l o ut pu t m us t be us e d for an indicator or ex t ernal recorder. If these outputs are used to control other units, we shall not be responsible for any malfunctions.
4. For maintenance of the monitor, it must go through a regular maintenance, including replacement and adjustment of the regular replacement parts as specified in the operating manual . I n ad d it ion, because this is a safety unit, i t is recommended that a regular maintena nce a nd s pa n adjustment are perf ormed every six months.
