Det-Tronics OPECL Manuals

IMPORTANT Be sure to read and understand the entire instruc- tion manual before installing or operating the gas detection system. This product is intended to pro- vide early warning of the presence of a flammable or explosive gas mixture. Proper device installa- tion, operation, and maintenance is required to ensure safe and effective operation. APPLICATION The Open Path Eclipse™Model OPECL is an open path infrared gas detection system that provides continuous monitoring of combustible hydrocarbon gas concentra- tions in the range of 0 to 5 LEL-meters. Standard sys- tem outputs include an electrically isolated/non-isolated 4-20 mA dc current output, with HART communication and RS-485 MODBUS communication. The system consists of two stainless steel modules — a transmitter and a receiver, along with mounting fixture hardware. Both modules are powered from an external 24 volt DC supply. The receiver provides the measure- ment signal outputs, and is furnished with an onboard "status indication" LED and an internal magnetic calibra- tion switch. The transmitter houses redundant xenon flashlamps. Both modules are installed at approximate- ly the same elevation and must be aligned to point directly at one another. No direct electrical interconnec- tion between the two modules is required. The Open Path Eclipse is ideal for use in harsh outdoor environments and is certified for use in Class I, Division 1 and Division 2 hazardous areas. It can be used as a stand-alone detector, or as part of a larger facility pro- tection system using other Det-Tronics equipment such as the R8471 Series Controller or the Eagle Quantum Premier Fire and Gas Detection/Releasing System.
