2.3 Bluetooth® Wireless Technology
The S5000 comes by default with Bluetooth communication. Using the X/S Connect App on an appropriate smart phone or tablet, users are able to interface with
the S5000 menu options in a larger and more user friendly setting. The Bluetooth communication can interact with the device within a maximum transmission
distance of 70 feet (21 m).
WARNING!
Bluetooth operation is dependent upon signal availability of the wireless service(s) necessary to maintain the communication link. Loss of wireless signal will
prevent communication of alarms and other information to linked devices. Take appropriate precautions in the event a loss of wireless signal occurs.
Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death.
If ordered with Bluetooth, the device will be shipped with Bluetooth enabled. See 4 Operation for instructions on disabling Bluetooth.
If the device was not ordered with Bluetooth it cannot be upgraded.
The S5000 and user provided communication device will need to be paired. This requires both devices to be in range and for a pairing sequence inputting a 6
digit pairing code. The instructions will be displayed on both the S5000 and communication device.
There are communication devices capable of being used in classified areas. Please contact your MSA
representative for additional information.
2.4 Dual Sensing
The S5000 supports two Digital Sensors, or one IR Sensor point IR detector and one Digital Sensor simultaneously with four wire connections. However, the
device will only support one passive sensor, either combustible catalytic bead or metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) sensors, based on the ATO configuration.
Passive catalytic bead uses three wires, passive MOS uses four wires.
The S5000 Gas Monitor generates two independent analog outputs; one for each sensor connected to the transmitter. The
analog output associated with Sensor 1 also has the digital HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer)
communication superimposed on the analog signal. If two sensors are connected, the digital HART communication carries
information for both sensors.
2.5 Retrofit Installations
The S5000 has the conduit entries located in the exact same orientation and distance from the wall and the mounting holes for attaching to a wall are identical to
the S4000 Series detectors. Users will be able to re-use the existing wiring for the remotely mounted sensors.
2.6 XCell Sensors Optimized for Fixed Gas Applications
XCell toxic and combustible catalytic bead sensors are developed and manufactured by MSA. Now optimized for fixed gas applications, the XCell sensor platform
is available in the S5000 and provides multiple benefits, including a standard 3-year warranty on all XCell sensors. One important optimization for fixed gas was
incorporating the GM catalytic bead into the XCell sensor.
The XCell Oxygen sensor does not use lead, but rather a non-consuming reaction chemistry. The XCell Oxygen sensor is expected to last well over 3 years and
can be safely stored on the shelf for at least 1 year without sensor performance degradation. Changes in barometric pressure across the range of 86 kPA – 108
kPA have a negligible effect on the operation of the sensor.
2.7 TruCal Sensing Technology for CO and H2S Electrochemical Sensors
Using patented pulse check technology and proprietary Adaptive Environmental Compensation (AEC) algorithms, all XCell sensors with TruCal verify operation
by actively adjusting the sensor output for changes in sensitivity. Some XCell sensors with TruCal also include Diffusion Supervision, which monitors the sensor
