STEP 1 — PLAN
LOCATE CONTROLLER/SENSOR
Prior to the installation process, a location plan for placing the Controller and
Sensor should be developed. Although there are no absolute rules for
determining the quantity and location of a sensor or controller, the following
points should be considered when planning the installation.
• Locate the Controller where it will be accessible and visible.
• Carefully locate Sensor in an area where gases may potentially accumulate.
• Use redundant systems to enhance protection and reliability.
• Light gases tend to rise; heavy gases tend to accumulate in low areas.
• Consider air movement patterns within the facility.
• Consider the construction of the facility (such as trenches where heavy gases
may accumulate or peaks where light gases may accumulate).
• Seek advice from experts knowledgeable about the primary gas to be
detected.
• Use common sense and refer to various regulatory publications that discuss
general guidelines for your industry.
The two most common installation options are as follows.
WARNING:
To compensate for distance when remotely calibrating (sensor wired for
separation), decrease the tubing diameter or increase the calibration gas flow
rate between gas canister and sensor. Always confirm calibration by applying
gas at the sensor (not separated).

External Equipment
It is necessary that reliable monitoring and indicating devices or systems be
connected to the detector. These devices must be designed to produce clear
visual and audible danger signals when high signal levels occur.
Note: A Certified Junction Box is used when Sensor and Controller are separated.
Refer to MAN-0081 for terminal designation.
MLP-A-AR-D-SIR1003
Net Safety Monitoring Inc
Mount
The Controller should be mounted near eye-level and be easily accessible for
calibration and maintenance purposes. The Sensor should be placed where gas
is likely to accumulate.
Ensure all devices are securely mounted, taking into consideration all
requirements.
Use the Face Rotation Option to mount the Millennium
Controller at a different orientation (refer to "Face
Rotation Option" on page 20 for detailed instructions).
STEP 3 — WIRE
FIELD INSTALLATION
WARNING: Wiring codes and regulations may vary. Wiring must comply
with applicable regulations relating to the installation of electrical equipment in
a hazardous area and is the responsibility of the installer. If in doubt, consult a
qualified official before wiring the system.
• If the 4-20 mA signal is not used, connect a jumper between the 4-20 terminal
and the Common terminal.
• The use of shielded cable is highly recommended for signal, input, output and
power wires to protect against interference caused by extraneous electrical or
electromagnetic 'noise'.
• In applications where the wiring cable is installed in conduit, the conduit
must not be used for wiring to other electrical equipment.
• The maximum distance between the Sensor and Controller is limited by the
resistance of the connecting wiring, which is a function of the gauge of the
wire being used.
• When developing a RS-485 chain of devices, the last device in the chain
requires end of line termination.
• RS-485 connection 2-wire, multipoint serial line.
SEAL
• Water-proof and explosion-proof conduit seals are recommended to prevent
water accumulation within the enclosure.
• Seals should be located as close to the device as possible and not more than
18 inches (46 cm) away.
• Explosion-proof installations may require an additional seal where conduit
enters a non-hazardous area. Ensure conformity with local wiring codes.
• When pouring a seal, use a fibre dam to assure proper formation of the seal.
Seals should never be poured at temperatures below freezing.
• The jacket and shielding of the cable should be stripped back to permit the
seal to form around the individual wires. This will prevent air, gas and water
leakage through the inside of the shield and into the enclosure.
• It is recommended that explosion-proof drains and conduit breathers be used.
In some applications, alternate changes in temperature and barometric
pressure can cause 'breathing' which allows moist air to enter and circulate
inside the conduit. Joints in the conduit system are seldom tight enough to
prevent this 'breathing'.
Note:Seals are not required for all Class 1 Division 2 locations in Canada.
However, to fully avoid any exposure, the use of seals are still
recommended, especially for installations that use high-pressure or
steam cleaning devices in proximity to the controller and/or sensor.
Connecting Wires
1.Use a small screw driver to gently press down and hold the spring connector
open.
2.Insert appropriate wire into open connector hole.
3.Release screw driver to secure wire.

Board Assembly
There are three different fixed boards, two optional relay boards and an optional Modbus board which make up the PCB Assembly. Depending upon requirements,
either a Electromechanical or Solid State Relay Board module can be used. Boards are field replaceable. Simply loosen the three locking standoffs, remove one
board, insert the other board and tighten screws.
Note:Boards are susceptible to ESD. Refer to Appendix A, "Electrostatic Sensitive Device (ESD)", on page 21.
Note:The Sensor may be factory installed to the Controller. If so, you need
only connect the Power Terminals.

As the Sensor must be located where gas is likely to accumulate and the
Controller where it can be easily reached, it is often necessary to “separate” the
Controller and Sensor.
The Sensor separation kit (SEP) is composed of a junction box and terminal
strip. Refer to the Net Safety Multi-purpose Junction Box(MAN-0081)
for terminal designation when wiring for sensor separation.
Shielded copper instrument wire (minimum 18 AWG) should be used for
separations up to 500 feet. Shielded copper instrument wire
(minimum 16 AWG) should be used for separations up to 2000 feet. Consult the
factory if a greater separation distance is required.

WARNING:
To compensate for distance when remotely calibrating (sensor wired for
separation), decrease the tubing diameter or increase the calibration gas flow
rate between gas canister and sensor. Always confirm calibration by applying

STEP 5 — CALIBRATE
CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
WARNING:The calibration procedure requires about 5 minutes to
complete. If gas is not applied at the appropriate time, a calibration failure may
occur (refer to "Calibration Failure" on page 14 for specific information).
For accurate performance, the Millennium should be calibrated using 50% span
of the specific gas of concern. The concentration of gas, corresponding to 100%
of full scale, is converted to a linear 4 to 20 mA output signal which can be
powered from the primary dc supply of the instrument. Power up the unit for at
least 4 hours BEFORE first calibration.
Note:Air movement, drafts and wind can cause dilution of calibration gas
flow which can cause an erroneous calibration and inaccurate
performance. To avoid this, use a Calibration Cover to cover the slots
on the Sensor. The cover MUST be removed for normal operation.
When slots are covered, inject calibration gas at a rate of 1.0 litre per
minute or greater; when not covered, ensure area is free of drafts/wind
and inject calibration gas at a rate of
3.0 litres per minute or greater.
The following calibration procedure should be followed to ensure an accurate
correlation between the 4 to 20 mA output signal and the gas concentration.

Sensor Fault
WARNING:
The fault detection circuitry does not monitor the operation of external response
equipment or the external wiring to these devices. It is important that these
devices be checked periodically to ensure they are operational.
Self-testing circuitry continuously checks for problems that could prevent
proper response. When power is applied, the microcontroller automatically tests
the system to ensure that it is functioning properly. During normal operation, it
continuously monitors the signal from the internal sensor source. In addition, a
"watchdog" timer is maintained to ensure the program is running correctly.
When a system fault is detected, the Status LED will Red Slow flash, the

RESET
Manual Reset
A Manual Reset is required after a calibration failure or to clear a latched relay
alarm. Simply place and hold the magnet against the Reed Switch or press and
hold the Calibration Button for 3-5 seconds. The unit will return to normal
operation using previous calibration values.
Remote Reset
If Relay Option is set to
and an open Push Button Switch is connected between the RST terminal and the
COM terminal on the Terminal Board, Remote Reset is possible. Also refer to
"Remote Reset" on page 9 for details.
Latching (refer to "Setting Relay Options" on page 16)
OUTPUTS
Relay
Note:The fault relay output is not used to activate an automatic shutdown
procedure. The fault output indicates a potential problem with the
Controller not an alarm condition.
Standard electro-mechanical relay outputs have Form C SPDT contacts rated
5 Amps at 30 V dc/ 250 V ac. Three relay outputs are available; one for Fault;
one for Low alarm; and one for High alarm. All relays have normally open and
normally closed contacts available at the output terminals.
Modbus
Digital RS-485 Modbus RTU protocol is used.
Register 40001 = LEL output (read only)
Register 40002 = Status (read only)
Register 40101 = Reset latched alarms (write)
Note:Many registers are used by the controller. Please do not write outside
the three registers.
Current
A 4-20 mA dc current output is used to transmit the alarm status and fault codes
to other devices. This output can be wired for isolated or non-isolated operation.
A 4.0 mA output indicates normal operation; a 4.0 - 20.0 mA output indicates
the presence of gas. Current output of 2.5 mA indicates the presence of a system
fault.
The fault relay is set for normally energized operation and is non-latching. If a
system fault is detected, the fault relay becomes de-energized. The fault relay is
factory set and cannot be altered. The Low alarm and High alarm relays can be
selected for either normally energized or normally de-energized operation and
latching/non-latching.

STEP 7 — MAINTAIN
PERIODIC RESPONSE CHECK
Net Safety Monitoring recommends that a bump test be performed every 90
days to ensure continued functionality and accuracy of the detector. Full
calibration is recommended when the sensor fails to meet acceptable accuracy
standards. This involves the application of calibration gas to the sensor, then the
observation of the response LEDs, analog output, and external monitoring
equipment. Be sure to prevent unwanted response of external monitoring
devices and equipment during this procedure. If the Millennium response to
calibration gas is within the specified accuracy then it is not necessary to
perform a calibration. For example, when 50% of full scale is applied, the
response is expected to be between 11.5 mA (47% of full scale) and 12.5 mA
(53% of full scale). An additional consideration is the accuracy tolerance of the
calibration gas which may be + or - a few percent. If the calibration gas is + or 10% of full scale then the reading may be from 10.7 mA (42% of full scale) to
13.3 mA (58% of full scale).
TROUBLESHOOT
Response to the input should be checked and, if necessary, calibration should be
performed whenever any of the following occur. Refer to "Calibration
Procedure" on page 14 for calibration instructions.
• Sensor or transmitter is connected or disconnected
• Gas Curve is modified
The Millennium is not designed to be repaired in the field. If a problem should
develop, first calibrate the device and carefully check for faulty wiring. If it is
determined that the problem is caused by an electronic failure, the device must
be returned to the factory for repair. Refer "How to Return Equipment" on
page 19 for detailed instructions.

Appendix A:
E
LECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE DEVICE (ESD)
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is the transfer, between bodies, of an electrostatic charge caused by direct contact or induced by an electrostatic field.
The most common cause of ESD is physical contact. Touching an object can cause a discharge of electrostatic energy
near electronic components, it can damage or destroy those components.
In some cases, damage is instantaneous and an immediate malfunction occurs. However, symptoms are not always immediate
seemingly normal for an indefinite period of time, followed by a sudden failure.
To eliminate potential ESD damage, review the following guidelines:
• Handle boards by metal shields
• Wear grounded wrist or foot straps, or ESD shoes or heel grounders to dissipate unwanted static energy
• Prior to handling boards, dispel any charge in your body or equipment
• Ensure components are transported and stored in static safe packaging
• When returning boards, carefully package in the original carton and static protective wrapping
• Ensure ALL personnel are educated and trained in ESD Control Procedures
In general, exercise accepted and proven precautions normally observed when handling electrostatic sensitive devices.
A warning label is placed on the packaging, identifying product using electrostatic sensitive semiconductor devices.
