Section 5: Installation
The electrochemical sensor contains semiconductor devices that are sensitive to
electrostatic discharge. H andle the device by the housing , taking care not to touch
electronic components or terminals. Refer to 'Electrostatic Sensitive Device Handling
Procedure' in the Appendix for further details.
5.1 Detector positioning
Proper detec tor positioning is essential for providing maximum protection. The most
effective number and placem ent of sensors varies depending on the conditions at the job
site. The individual perform ing the installation must rely on experience and common
sense to determine the number of detectors needed and the best detector location.
The finest detection system is of little value if the H2S gas cannot readily com e in contact
with the sensor. First priority should be placing the sensor where the highest
concentration of gas is anticipated.
The following factors are important and should be considered for every installation:
Since hydrogen sulfide is heavier than air, it will tend to settle near the floor or ground,
unless it is heated, m ixed with other gases that are lighter than air, or prevented from
settling by air m ovem ent.
Consider how rapidly the H
close as practical to an anticipated source.
S will diffuse into the air. Select a location for the sensor as
2
Consider ventilation characteristics of the immediate area. Air movem ent will cause the
gas to becom e m ore concentrated in some areas than others. Always place the sensors
where the m ost concentrated accumulation of hydrogen sulfide gas is anticipated. Also
consider the fact that some ventilation systems do not operate continuously.
Locate the sensor away from potential sources of contamination (dirt, etc.) if possible.
The sensor should be installed with the flame arrestor pointing down (refer to Figure 3-1)
to prevent build-up of contaminants and enhance weather resistance. The sensor must be
accessible for testing and calibration.
Exposure to excessive heat or vibration can cause premature failure of electronic devices
and should be avoided if possible. Shielding the device from intense sunlight will reduce
solar heating and may increase the life of the unit.
5.2 Wiring requirements
T wo wire cable is used for connecting the sensor to a transm itter, controller, or display
m odule. T he use of shielded cable is highly recom m ended to protect against
interference caused by extraneous electrical "noise."

Section 8:
Maintenance
To ensure reliable protection it is im portant to check and calibrate the H
system on a regularly scheduled basis. The frequency of these checks will vary depending
on conditions such as relative humidity, dirty or dusty environm ents and exposure to H
Relative humidity is an important factor in the life expectancy of a sensor. Constant
exposure to extremely dry conditions will shorten the sensor life. If possible, sensors that
are operated in extremely dry areas should periodically be rotated to more humid
environments in order to re-hydrate. A sensor that has been exposed to extremely dry
environments and can no longer be spanned during calibration or has low sensitivity can
be treated. The sensor should be placed in a moistened sealed bag and put in the
refrigerator for 24 to 48 hours. D o not freeze. If this does not restore norm al response the
sensor m ust be replaced.
A rain shield/dust cover such as the C C S-1 should be used when the sensor m ay be
exposed to rain, water splash or dust. Be aware that ice and snow build-up could block gas
from entering the sensor.
8.1 Sensing element replacement
The sensing element assembly is not intended to be repaired. When calibration can no
longer be perform ed properly, the assem bly must be replaced. Spare sensing elem ent
assem blies should be kept on-hand for field replacem ent.

Care should be taken in storing spare sensing elements. For maximum protection against
contamination and deterioration, sensing elements should not be removed from the
original protective pack aging until the time of installation. T o ensure maximum storage
life, sensing elements should be stored at a temperature beetween 40 °F and 68 °F (5 °C
and 20 °C) and a relative hum idity between 15 and 90 percent. A typical refrigerator is a
good place for storage. Do not freeze. Storage tim e should be limited to 6 months or less.

replacing the sensing element in a hazardous area.
To replace the sensing element in the H
1. Remove power from the detector.
2. Remove the cap from the detector housing.
3. Remove and discard the old sensing elem ent assembly. Check for corrosion or
contamination on the terminals inside the sensor enclosure; clean if necessary.

Appendix A: Electrostatic Sensitive Device Handling Procedure User Manual
With the trend toward increasingly widespread use of microprocessors and a wide variety
of other electrostatic sensitive semiconductor devices, the need for careful handling of
equipm ent containing these devices deserves m ore attention than it has received in the
past.
Electrostatic damage can occur in several ways. T he most familiar is by physical contact.
Touching an object causes a discharge of electrostatic energy that has built up on the skin.
If the charge is of sufficient magnitude, a spark will also be visible. This voltage is often
more than enough to damage som e electronic components. Som e devices can be
damaged without any physical contact. Exposure to an electric field can cause damage if
the electric field exceeds the dielectric breakdown voltage of the capacitive elements
within the device.
In som e cases, permanent damage is instantaneous and an immediate malfunction is
realized. Often, however, the sym ptom s are not immediately observed. Performance m
ay be marginal or even seemingly normal for an indefinite period of time, followed by a
sudden and mysterious failure.
Damage caused by electrostatic discharge can be virtually eliminated if the equipment is
handled only in a static safeguarded work area and if it is transported in a package or
container that will render the necessary protection against static electricity. Emerson
modules that might be damaged by static electricity are carefully wrapped in a static
protective material before being packaged. Foam packaging block s are also treated with
an anti-static agent. If it should ever becom e necessary to return the module, it is highly
recommended that it be carefully packaged in the original carton and static protective
wrapping.
Since a static safeguarded work area is usually impractical in most field installations,
caution should be exercised to handle the module by its metal shields, taking care not to
touch electronic com ponents or terminals.
In general, always exercise all of the accepted and proven precautions that are normally
observed when handling electrostatic sensitive devices.
A warning label is placed on the packaging, identifying those units that use electrostatic
sensitive semiconductor devices.
