The GD402 gas density meter and the GD40 detector not only provide continuous measurement
of gas density, but also several other valuable parameters, including specic gravity and molecular weight. The GD40 detector is designed for intrinsically safe and ame-proof, explosion protected applications. It is designed to be virtually maintenance free for all accepted applications.
The GD402 is a rugged microprocessor-based converter designed in two versions to meet both
general area and explosion-proof application requirements. In addition to the display of several
key data items, the converter also provides the choice of three different means for calibration:
automatic; semi-automatic and one-touch manual operation.
Before use, read this manual thoroughly in order to fully realize the capabilities of the Meter.
The topics and information that require special attention when handling the product are given in
the text of this manual along with cautionary notes - WARNING or CAUTION - which reect the
importance of the information.
For safety reasons or to avoid possible damage to your equipment, strictly adhere to every
cautionary note that appears in this manual. Cautionary notes, such as a WARNING, that also

The GD402 gas density meter is shipped after adjusting the both of detector and converter in
pairs. When installation, conrm whether the serial number on both of converter and detector are
in pairs or not. If mismatched in pairs, converter is to be out of order. When converter or detector
supplied individually, enter the detector constants, described on inside the lid of the GD40, into
converter so that the GD402 is going to be well.
In detail, please refer to Figure 5.30, Figure 6.31 or Figure 7.28.
Upon delivery of the purchased product, unpack it carefully and make sure it is completely free
from damage that may have occurred during transport. It must be shipped in strict conformance
to the purchaser's specications. By way of precaution, conrm that the equipment is the exact
model you ordered. Also check that all accessory components are included, when conrming the
specications, refer to the model and sufx codes indicated on the nameplate on the equipment.
For a description of the model and sufx codes, refer to Chapter1,''Specications.''
l Consideration of Operation Parameters
ii
The GD402 operates with the same parameters set when it was delivered (default data) , when it
is put into operation under these conditions.
Before starting measurement, check whether or not the default data meets your operating conditions. If necessary, re-set the parameters to suit your operating requirements.
To check the defaults, make use of the sheet, “Records of GD402’s Operation Parameter Settings,” in the back of this manual. It is advisable that, if any of the operation parameter settings
have been changed, the new data be noted in this record.
l Information Covered in This Manual
This manual covers all of the information for handling the GD402 converter and the GD40 detector, including instructions on installation, operation, setting of operation parameters, inspection
and maintenance.
CAUTION
Modication and adaptation of the instrument’s parts, wiring and construction are prohibited.

Though the detector construction makes it relatively insensitive to sudden changes in
the gas temperature, extra precision can be achieved by keeping ambient temperature conditions as constant as possible. In measurements where optimum precision is
required it is therefore not recommended to install the detector in an outdoors environment, especially not if such installation is prone to direct sunlight.

l Detector unit
When the system is ordered to be used as a hydrogen purity meter, an optional pressure
transmitter is required for pressure compensation.
• If /EJAJ1, /EJAF2, /EJAF3 or, /EJAF4 are ordered, the detector unit and the
pressure transmitter and the tubing in between will all be integrated on a single mounting
plate. This allows the space where the pressure transmitter is normally mounted to be used
effectively for other purposes.

(For Explosion-proof use)
Part No.Description
L9811LLG3/4 explosion-proof cable gland.
Cable’s outside diameter 8 to 16 mm.
Used for the GD402R converter.
Note: Specify the number of cable glands for converter in hazardous area
1.2.4 Two-core, Double-Shielded Cable
Normally two conductor shielded cable can be used, but when failure arises from noises
disturbance, this cable is recommended for connection between the GD402 converter and
GD40 detector.
The GD402 Gas Density Meter is thoroughly inspected at the factory and carefully packed to
ensure the equipment does not suffer any damage during transportation.
The package should also be handled with care when unpacking to prevent the equipment from
undergoing severe mechanical shock. After unpacking, visually check the equipment to ensure
that it is free from any damage.
Although the detector has no controls on it, it may need to be accessed for inspection or for other
reasons. Install the detector in a location as close as possible to where the gas is sampled and
where maintenance can be easily carried out. The converter has a display with controls on it;
thus, you should install it so that the keys are positioned directly in front of you when working.
Note that there must be a clearance of at least 400 mm at the back of the converter GD402G,
GD402T, GD402V and GD402R since cables are wired to the back by removing the screwed
rear cover.
2.1 Installing the Detector
The GD40 detector is an explosion-proof with intrinsically safe sensor instrument. Install the
detector in a location where the following conditions are satised.
2.1.1 Selecting the Location
l Explosion-proof construction
Before installing the detector in an explosion-hazardous area, ensure that the area conforms to
the explosion-proof code noted above.
l No corrosive gases
Corrosive gases are not desirable because they may damage the electrical components in the
detector.
l Slight mechanical vibration
Although the detector is vibration-resistant, vibration may loosen the connections of the external
wiring.
l No exposure to direct sunlight
Exposure to direct sunlight may raise the temperature in the detector to abnormal levels, and
should therefore be avoided. Note that such abnormal temperature levels can also result from
heat irradiated from high-temperature equipment around the detector.
l Humidity maintained between 5% and 95 %RH
Avoid choosing a location that is likely to be exposed to abnormally high or low humidity over a
prolonged period. It is recommended that the detector be used at a humidity between 25% and
85 % RH.
l No exposure to rain water
Even though the detector is rainproof, whenever possible install it where it is protected from water
splashes. The reasoning for this is that the detector cover may need to be removed for maintenance or for other reasons.
l Altitude of installation site is lower than 2,000 m.

The GD402 converter comes in either the non-explosion-protected Model GD402G or explosionprotected Model GD402T, V, R (explosion-protection code: Refer to 1.1.1).
Choose the Model GD402T or V or R if the converter is to be used in a hazardous area.
2.2.1 Selecting the Location
l Ease of operation
Select a location where you can easily view the readings on the display and work with the keys.
Installing the converter closer to the detector will ease your maintenance work, including calibration.
l Explosion-proof construction
When installing the converter in an explosion-hazardous area, ensure that the area conforms to
the explosion-proof code noted above.
l No corrosive gases
Corrosive gases are not desirable because they may damage the electrical components in the
converter.
l Slight mechanical vibration
2-5
Although the converter is vibration-resistant, vibration may loosen the connections of the external

l No exposure to direct sunlight
Exposure to direct sunlight may raise the temperature in the converter to abnormal levels, and
should therefore be avoided. Note that such abnormal temperature levels can also result from
heat irradiated from high-temperature equipment around the converter. If the converter is likely to
receive direct sunlight and the temperature in the converter will likely exceed the operating limits,
attach a hood (optional).
l Humidity maintained between 5% and 95% RH.
Avoid choosing a location that is likely to be exposed to abnormally high or low humidity over a
prolonged period. It is recommended that the converter be used at a humidity between 25% and
