3.1 Installation Warnings - Read Before Installation
WARNING!
• Refer to 9 Appendix: General Certification Information before installation and operation.
• When utilizing the P+F Wireless HART Bullet accessory, read and understand the Quick Start guides (P/N 10218978 &
10218979) and P+F Wireless HART Bullet instruction manual (WHA-BLT-F9D0-N-A0-*) before installing and using. The
P+F Wireless HART Bullet shall be installed as close to the S5000 transmitter, Junction Box or JB5000 as possible.
• Some digital sensors are provided in a fritless sensor housing. The fritless sensor housing is labeled as Div 2 or Zone 2
and is approved for Div 2 or Zone 2 installations only. The protection method is Nonincendive or Type n respectively.
Ensure all components are approved for the wiring method being used and in accordance with the National Electric Code
of the country of use, any applicable local regulations, and this manual.
• As part of the product certification, it was verified that optional communication functions of this gas detection instrument
while operating at the maximum transaction rate do not adversely affect the gas detection operation and functions of the
instrument. The product certification, however, does not include or imply approval of the SafeSwap feature,
communications protocol or functions provided by the software of this instrument or of the communications apparatus
and software connected to this instrument.
• Follow the warnings below when removing or replacing sensors. Reference Figure 3 Exploded View for component
overview.
○ Never remove or replace a sensor body assembly or an IRSensor while under power or when explosive hazards
are present.
○ Confirm that the area is free of explosive hazards before removing or replacing an XCell Sensor under power.
○ To remove an XCell Sensor, unscrew XCell Sensor three full turns, wait 10 seconds, and then remove the XCell
Sensor completely.
• Exposure to continuous levels of HCN gas affects the sensitivity of the HCN sensor and can result in erroneously low
gas readings. This can occur in as little as 30 minutes of exposure. Do not operate in the presence of continuous low
level background HCN gas. Use latching alarms to avoid an erroneous alarm clearance. Sensor sensitivity will recover
over the course of several hours once HCN gas is removed. Use an independent instrument to confirm the absence of
HCN gas and allow the sensor to return to zero prior to restarting operations.
• Plug all unused conduit entries with a suitably certified blanking/stopping plug.
• Do not paint the device. Avoid painting in areas where the S5000 and remote sensor junction box are located. If painting
is required in an area where an S5000 or remote sensor has been installed, exercise caution to ensure paint is not
deposited on the sensor inlet fitting. Paint solvents can also cause an alarm condition to occur or potentially poison
electrochemical sensors.
• Protect the device from extreme vibration.
• Do not mount the sensing head in direct sunlight without a sunshield (P/N 10180254).
• IR Sensors contain no user- or field-serviceable parts and must be returned to the factory for repair. Any attempt to open
the monitor will damage the unit and void the warranty.
Failure to follow these warnings can result in serious personal injury or death.
NOTICE
When installing the IRSensor, under no circumstances should a pry-bar be applied to the two legs that support the unit's
reflectors during installation or removal of the sensor. Applying force to the legs can permanently damage the IRSensor.
