3: Installation
3.1 Site Requirements
The Air Check Carbonyl Sulfide monitoring system should be mounted in an area free of vibration and electrical noise or
interference. If possible, avoid areas with continuous high temperatures or relative humidity.
The unit should be installed in a location where gas leaks are likely to occur or where released gases may accumulate.
Airflow within the monitored area, the characteristics of the target gas (lighter or heavier than air), and the position of
workstations and personnel should all be considered in determining the most suitable installation location.
Allow enough space around the instrument to permit access for maintenance and calibration.
NOTE: The Air Check Carbonyl Sulfide Monitor is NOT designed for installation in hazardous
areas.
3.2 Mounting
The Air Check is designed primarily for wall mounting and should be installed no closer than 36 inches (915 mm) above
floor level. If mounted outdoors, keep direct sunlight off the enclosure.
3.3 Sensor Installation
The Carbonyl Sulfide sensor cell is connected to the flow chamber at the factory. Please do not disturb
the sensor during installation of the monitor.
3.4 Wiring
3.4.1 24 VDC Power
Connect the 24 VDC power cable to the terminal block located on the inside of the instrument. The
terminal connections are as follows: (Pin 6) +24V, (Pin 5) Common, and (Pin 4) shield. A three-
wire shielded cable (3-conductor, 18 AWG stranded shielded) General Cable #E2203S.30.86 or
equivalent should be used for the connection. The total length of the cable between the gas detector
and controller must not exceed 0.62 miles (1 km).
CAUTION: The Air Check Carbonyl Sulfide Monitor
must only be powered using a
regulated 24VDC Power Supply. Failure to use a regulated 24VDC power supply will void the
warranty.
The 24 VDC power in connections are made on the 6 pin terminal connection located on the Power
Supply PCB. These connections are made as follows:
