PRISKRIBO
DETECTION METHOD
The PointWatch Model PIR9400 operates on the infrared absorption principle. A beam of modulated light is projected from an internal infrared source to a reflector, which sends it back to a pair of infrared sensors. One of the sensors is designated reference and the other active, with different optical filters in front of the two sensors to make them selective to different infrared wavelengths. The reference wavelength is unaffected by combustible gases, while the active wavelength is absorbed by combustible gases. The ratio of the active to the reference wavelength is computed within the detector to determine the concentration of gas present. This value is then converted into a 420 mA current output for connection to external display and control systems.
CURRENT LOOP OUTPUT
During normal operation, the Model PIR9400 Detector has a current output from 420 mA that is proportional to gas concentrations from 0 to 100% LFL. A current output other than 420 mA indicates either negative gas level, a fault or over-range condition, or that the detector is in the calibrate mode as indicated in Table 1.
FUNCIONANTA MODOJ
Varmiĝo
When power is applied to the detector, it enters a Warmup mode (for approximately one minute) in which it performs diagnostic checks and allows the sensors to stabilize before beginning normal operation. The current output during this period is 0 mA. At the end of the warmup period with no faults present, the detector automatically enters the Normal operating mode. If a fault is present after the warmup, the detector current output will indicate a fault.
normalaj
In the normal operating mode, the 420 mA signal level corresponds to the detected gas concentration. The detector continuously checks for system faults or initiation of calibration, and automatically changes to the appropriate mode.
riproĉos
Faults detected during warmup, normal operation, or calibration are indicated by the current loop output as shown in Table 1.

calibración
All PointWatch Detectors are calibrated at the factory with 50% LFL methane at 2.5% by volume, and are shipped with the internal gas selection switch set for methane gas detection. For additional information on calibration for other gases, refer to the “Linearized Output Options” section of this manual.
Whenever calibration of the PointWatch Detector is required, a momentary connection of the calibration lead wire to DC negative (common) of the power supply initiates the zero and span calibration sequence.
NOTE It is not recommended to physically connect or touch the calibration lead wire to DC common in the field to begin calibration. This practice is often less than precise, and may result in a spark or other undesirable result. For optimum ease of installation and calibration, always use a PIRTB (furnished with magnetic reed switch, indicating LEDs, and terminal strip), available from Det-Tronics.
The factory default setting for the output current during calibration is an inhibited state. See Table 1 for specific information. Note that a live current output during calibration can also be programmed, although this is not usually recommended. Refer to the “Calibration” section of this manual for details.
The calibration sequence for a particular Model PIR9400 Detector installation is typically determined by the type of termination box installed with the detector:
· For non-intrusive one-person calibration, select the PIRTB with Tall Cover. This termination box includes a magnetic reed calibration switch and calibration LED (visible through a viewing window on the cover). By activating the magnetic reed switch with a calibration magnet and then viewing the LED through the window, a one person, non-intrusive calibration can be performed. See Figure 6.
· For intrusive or two-person calibration, select the PIRTB with Short Cover. This termination box typically requires removal of the termination box cover to view the calibration LED, or it requires two people to accomplish a remotely initiated non-intrusive calibration. The short cover termination box includes a magnetic reed calibration switch, calibration LED and a solid cover (no viewing window). This termination box can also be used for sensor separation. See Figure 7.

INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT Use only low vapor pressure silicone grease when lubricating threads on the PointWatch Detector and associated termination box. Do not get this grease on the optics of the detector. A suitable grease is listed in the “Spare Parts” section at the end of this manual. Do not use Hydrocarbon-based grease. Doing so will emit hydrocarbon vapors that will be measured by the detector, resulting in inaccurate gas level readings.
DETECTOR LOCATION It is essential that the device be properly located to enable it to provide maximum protection. The most effective number and placement of sensors varies depending on the conditions at the job site. The individual designing the installation must rely on experience and common sense to determine the type and quantity of sensors and the best sensor locations to adequately protect the area. The following factors should be considered for every installation:

1. What kind of gas is to be detected? If it is lighter than air, place the sensor above the potential gas leak. Place the sensor close to the floor for gases that are heavier than air or for vapors resulting from flammable liquid spills. However, note that air currents can cause a gas that is heavier than air to rise. In addition, if the gas is hotter than ambient air or mixed with gases that are lighter than air, it could also rise.
2. How rapidly will the gas diffuse into the air? Select a location for the sensor as close as practical to the anticipated source of a gas leak.
3. Ventilation characteristics of the immediate area must also be considered. Movement of air may cause gas to accumulate more heavily in one area than another. The detector should be placed in the areas where the most concentrated accumulation of gas is anticipated. Also take into consideration the fact that many ventilation systems do not operate continuously.
4. Proper orientation is horizontal.

5. The sensor should be accessible for maintenance.
6. Excessive heat or vibration can result in premature failure of any electronic device and should be avoided if possible.
NOTE For additional information on determining the quantity and placement of gas detectors in a specific application, refer to the article titled “The Use of Combustible Detectors in Protecting Facilities from Flammable Hazards” contained in the Instrument Society of America (ISA) Transaction, Volume 20, Number 2.
0 TO 100% LFL LINEARIZED OUTPUT OPTIONS
The PointWatch IR Detector is provided with five field selectable “standard gas” signal processing program settings. These settings create a linearized scale for methane and other gases like ethane, propane, butane, ethylene, or propylene, and are defined as linearized PointWatch gas measurement outputs. This means that the detector is capable of providing an analog signal output that is directly proportional to the % LFL concentration for these gases, provided the proper gas setting has been selected, and the it has been calibrated with the proper calibration gas type.
The PointWatch Detector is factory configured for 0 to 100% LFL methane. To re-configure the detector for one of the other gases, remove the electronic module from the housing and select the desired gas by changing the setting on the rotary gas selection switch. (Refer to “Changing Linearized Output Gas Selection.”) The detector must then be calibrated using a 50% LFL mixture of the selected gas.
NOTE Failure to calibrate the device with a 50% LFL mixture of the selected gas will result in a sensor fault and improper operation of the detector.
Response of Methane-Calibrated PointWatch Detector (Factory Setting) to Other Gases
Figure 8 shows the signal output of a PIR9400 that has been properly calibrated for methane in response to other gases. This data should be used as a reference only. It is recommended to always calibrate the detector with the type of gas to be detected.

PointWatch Model PIR9400 Transfer Curves
The gas detector, when set for methane, provides detection of other hydrocarbon vapors at higher LFL readings (see Figure 8). In addition to the standard gases previously mentioned, the PointWatch Detector is capable of detecting and measuring many other hydrocarbon gases and vapors. Although linear detector outputs are not offered for most of these gases, an accurate gas concentration measurement can be made by using a cross-reference data sheet known as a “transfer curve.” (Available upon request.) The transfer curve data sheet is always based upon the following:
1. The data applies to one specific gas/vapor type only.
2. The data is collected at a specific test temperature. (Significant differences in ambient hazard area temperature as compared to test temperature may impact transfer curve accuracy.)
3. The data compares actual hazardous gas concentration in %LFL to the detector signal output level, using all five standard gas settings.
The transfer curve data is then used:
1. To select the optimum detector standard gas setting.
2. To select the appropriate setpoint levels for proper alarm relay actuation. This will ensure that external alarm response action occurs as required.

It is important to note that whenever using transfer curve data, the Model PIR9400 analog signal output and any real-time visual display of that output (such as a digital display or bar graph) will be offset by a value indicated by the transfer curve data, and therefore must be externally correlated by the viewer.
The transfer curve data sheet for the gas of interest includes five different curves — one for each standard linearized output setting. To select the appropriate setting for the detector, find the curve that:
1. Provides the closest signal correlation across the desired gas measurement range, and
2. Ensures that the offset in the PIR9400 signal output versus gas concentration is an over-reading, as opposed to an unsafe under-reading.
Ideally, at 50% of full scale PIR9400 output (12 ma signal level) the detected gas level will equal 50% LFL gas concentration, and this relationship will remain proportional throughout the gas measurement range. In reality, however, transfer curve data is non-linear, and will result in varying offset levels from proportional linearity throughout the gas measurement range. Refer to the example en figuro 9.
To use the transfer curve data, find the concentration (in % LFL) for the gas of interest on the horizontal axis of the graph. Follow the vertical line up from that point until it intersects with a gas response curve. From the point of intersection, follow the horizontal line directly to the left until it intersects with the vertical axis of the graph.

The point of intersection with the vertical axis represents PIR9400 output (0-100% LFL reading, or 4-20 mA proportionally) in response to the actual gas concentration at the installation using that particular linearized output setting.
En la eksample for gasoline vapor detection (Figure 9), the recommended PIR9400 standard gas setting and calibration gas to use is propylene. When using this setting and calibration gas type, at 50% LFL gasoline concentration, the PIR9400 signal output will be 73% (15 mA). The propane and ethane settings would not be recommended, since the signal output level is much less than the actual gas concentration in the field. The methane and ethylene settings are acceptable, but will result in much higher readings than the gas level that is actually present in the field.

IR Module Removal and Gas Selection
IMPORTANT Remove power before disassembling the PointWatch Detector.
The electronics module of the PIR9400 gas detector is field-removable. There are four different revisions of the IR module as listed below:
1. Aluminum type supplied with 6-32 captive flatblade screws.
2. Stainless steel type supplied with 6-32 caphead (Allen) screws (use 7/64 inch hex driver).
3. Aluminum type supplied with M5 caphead (Allen) screws.
4. Stainless steel type supplied with M5 caphead (Allen) screws.
The M5 metric caphead screws were implemented as a standard design beginning in mid-2003 in order to comply with ATEX product approval requirements. In addition, the electronics mounting cover is factorytightened to a torque setting of 15 Newton-meters, and requires the use of the cover removal tool. Do not use an improper tool such as pliers or vise grip.
1. Completely loosen the captive screws on the flat end of the detector using the appropriate tool (flatblade screwdriver or Allen wrench) and slide off the weather baffle assembly. See Figures 10 and 11.

NOTE All baffle retainer screws are to be tightened to a torque setting of 5 Newton-meters.
4. Calibrate the detector using a 50% LFL mixture of the gas type that was selected with the gas selection switch. Refer to the “Calibration” section of this manual for complete calibration details.
POINTWATCH TERMINATION BOXES (PIRTB)
Two termination box types for use specifically with the PointWatch Detector are available from Det-Tronics.
· Tall Cover/Window Termination Box for one person, non-intrusive calibration. This termination box includes a magnetic reed calibration switch, calibration LED and a windowed cover. Activating the magnetic reed switch with the calibration magnet and viewing the LED through the window provides one person, non-intrusive calibration capability. See Figure 6.
· Short Cover Termination Box for Model PIR9400 requires two people to accomplish calibration. This termination box includes a magnetic reed calibration switch, calibration LED and a solid cover. Activating the magnetic reed calibration switch with the calibration magnet or touching the calibration lead to the negative lead (common) of the power supply using an external switch are methods used to initiate calibration. This termination box can also be used for sensor separation. See Figure 7.
The PointWatch Detector is designed to be threaded into a termination box, which can be mounted to a solid, vibration free wall or post. A 3/8 inch spacer may be required between the enclosure and the mounting surface to allow adequate room for the sensor and calibration accessory.

Intrusive and Non-Intrusive Calibration
For hazardous locations, it is important to consider the options for calibration of the PointWatch Detector. The device can be installed so that calibration can be performed by one person without opening the explosion-proof enclosure (non-intrusive calibration). This is accomplished by incorporating a display or LED that provides information and/or instructions for calibration. When a display is not used or the LED is not visible from the outside, the enclosure must be opened to observe the LED or to insert a meter to read the output of the device (intrusive calibration). With this type of installation, either a permit must be obtained to open the enclosure or the procedure must be accomplished by two people using walkie-talkies for communication.
Depending on the control devices selected, the PointWatch Detector can be installed for either intrusive or non-intrusive calibration. See Table 2 for a listing of the installation options.
A user-supplied termination box can also be used, provided it has the appropriate sized entries. This termination box must be suitable for use in the application and location in which it is being installed. A properly installed normally open switch should be provided for initiating calibration.

The use of shielded cable in conduit or shielded armored cable is recommended for optimum RFI/ EMI protection. In applications where the wiring cable is installed in conduit, the conduit must not be used for wiring to other electrical equipment. To assure proper operation of the detector, the resistance of the connecting wire must be within the specified limits. The maximum distance between the detector and power source is determined by the power supply capability and wire size. See Figure 2 to determine the proper wire size and maximum wiring distance allowed.
It is important that moisture not be allowed to come in contact with the electrical connections of the system.
The use of proper piping techniques, breathers, glands, and seals are required to prevent water ingress and/or maintain the explosion-proof rating.

DETECTOR SEPARATION (OPTIONAL)
In applications where the detector must be installed in a different location from the control device, a PIRTB must be installed at the detector location to make the electrical connection. The control device can be the FlexVu UD10, FlexVu UD30, Infiniti U9500 Transmitter or the tall cover termination box with window. Refer to Figure 21 for a typical separation diagram. For purposes of brevity the following discussion only refers to the Infiniti U9500 Transmitter as the control device.

Wiring Requirements for Detector Separation
Shielded four wire cable is recommended for connecting the detector termination box to the transmitter. Cable with a foil shield is recommended. The shield of the cable should be open at the detector termination box and connected to earth ground at the transmitter termination box. Ensure that the shield wire is clipped short and insulated with electrical tape to prevent accidental grounding at the open end.
The maximum distance between the detector termination box and the transmitter is limited by the resistance of the connecting wiring, which is a function of the gauge of the wire being used. Refer to Figure 2 to determine the maximum separation distance for a given wire size.
NOTE It is important to maintain a minimum of +18 Vdc (including ripple) at the PointWatch Detector. When determining the appropriate wire size for the installation, refer to Figure 2. Be sure to take into account the distance from the power supply to the PointWatch Detector or to the U9500 Transmitter and then to the PointWatch Detector to ensure that the power requirements are met.

Mounting and Connecting Procedure for Detector Separation
The PIRTB can be mounted to a wall or post, or it can be suspended by the conduit if this does not result in excessive vibration. A 3/8 inch spacer may be needed between the termination box and the mounting surface to allow adequate room for the sensor and calibration accessory. The termination box should be electrically connected to earth ground.
1. Lubricate the sensor threads with low vapor pressure silicone grease, then install the sensor in the conduit entry of the termination box. It should be tight to ensure an explosion-proof installation, however, do not overtighten.
2. Connect the detector wires to the terminal strip in the termination box as shown in Figures 22 and 23.
3. Connect the cable leadwires from the FlexVu UD10, Infiniti U9500 or termination box to the same terminals inside the separated termination box. Do not ground the shield at the termination box. Ground the sensor wire shield at the transmitter end only.
4. Check the connections inside the termination box and place the cover on the termination box.
5. If used with the Infiniti U9500 Transmitter, mount and wire the Infiniti U9500 Transmitter as shown in Figure 22 and as described in the Infiniti U9500 Instruction Manual.

STARTPROCEDRO
1. Inhibit the output loads that are actuated by the system to prevent activation of these devices.
2. Check that the detector has been wired properly. 3. Apply power to the system and allow the detector to
operate for a minimum of 2 hours, then check zero and verify gas response. Perform a zero and span calibration, if necessary.
NOTE If the device is being used with a gas other than methane, it must be calibrated with 50% LFL of the gas selected with the gas selection switch.
4. Place the system in normal operation by reactivating the output loads.

11.4

95-8440

KALIBRADO
The PointWatch Detector is factory calibrated for methane and, unlike catalytic detectors, does not require routine calibration to ensure proper operation. Guidelines for when calibration or bump tests should be performed/ checked are listed in Table 3.
NOTE To check calibration, inhibit output loads as necessary, then apply 50% LFL calibration gas to the detector using the equipment provided in the calibration kit. Ensure that the correct calibration gas is used. Check the current output for the appropriate response (12 mA).
NOTE Drift will be indicated by a constant zero offset in one direction either above or below 4 mA. The presence of background gas would be indicated by a small but constantly changing output.
CALIBRATION EQUIPMENT The following equipment is required to calibrate the PointWatch Detector (calibration kits from Det-Tronics contain all items below):
50% LFL calibration gas Calibration nozzle (for aluminum model)
Regulator (minimum 2.5 liter/minute flow rate) Three feet of tubing.

CALIBRATION PROCEDURES The procedures in this section explain calibration sequences for both stand alone PointWatch Detector applications (when a user supplied or no termination box is used) and for applications where the detector is used with the Det-Tronics supplied termination box (containing a magnetic reed switch and LED). For applications where the PointWatch Detector is used with the Infiniti U9500 Transmitter or the Eagle System, refer to those instruction manuals for the calibration procedure.
When the Model PIR9400 Detector is used in a stand-alone configuration or with transmitters and controllers other than those supplied by Det-Tronics, the current loop output must be monitored in order to calibrate (for both inhibited and live current loop configurations).
When the detector is used with a Det-Tronics termination box, the magnetic switch and LED in the termination box are used to initiate and annunciate the calibration sequence. The current loop output also indicates the calibration sequence (for both inhibited and live current loop configurations).
IMPORTANT CALIBRATION NOTES
· Ensure that the detector has been operating for at least two hours before calibrating.
· Do not open the explosion-proof enclosure when power is applied to the system unless the appropriate permits have been procured.

· The calibration gas used must be the same as the gas selected on the Gas Selection Switch. The factory setting is for methane, so use methane to calibrate if the Gas Selection Switch is set in position “0.” If the Gas Selection Switch is set in any other position, ensure that the correct gas is used to calibrate. See Figure 14. Only 50% LFL calibration gas can be used to calibrate the PointWatch Detector.
· If the detector is being used in a stand alone configuration, the use of an inhibited current loop is recommended. Live current loop calibration was designed primarily for use with the Infiniti U9500 Transmitter or the EQP system. Accomplishing live current loop calibration manually is possible but not recommended. Instructions for live current loop calibration are provided after the “Calibration Procedure – Inhibited Current Output During Calibration” procedure.

11.4

95-8440

· The calibration sequence is initiated by momentarily connecting the calibration lead to the negative lead (common) of the power supply using the Cal Magnet or an external switch. If the Det-Tronics PIRTB with magnetic Cal Switch is being used, this is accomplished by holding the Cal Magnet near the side of the PIRTB for one second. The location of the Cal Switch is shown in Figure 17. An alternate way of accomplishing this is to install a pushbutton switch between the yellow lead and the power supply common (), as shown in Figure 15. Use of the Cal Magnet to activate the Cal Switch in the PIRTB will be referred to throughout the following procedures. If an alternate method of initiating calibration is used, substitute that method in all places in which the Cal Magnet/Cal Switch activation are referenced.
· The calibration sequence can be exited at any time during the span calibration by holding the Cal Magnet near the Cal Switch in the PIRTB for one second.
· At all times other than when calibration is being performed, all calibration nozzles must be capped. This prevents dirt and water from entering the direct path into the optics. Failure to protect the optics can result in a fouled optics fault. If a permanent gas delivery system is used, the delivery tube must be plugged when not in use.

Calibration ProcedureInhibited Current Output During Calibration
See Table 4 for an overview of the calibration sequence.
1. Be sure that only clean air is present at the sensor. (The microprocessor begins taking zero readings immediately upon entering the Calibrate mode.) If the possibility of background gases exists, purge the sensor with clean air to ensure accurate calibration.
2. There are two methods of applying the calibration gas. For windy situations, a calibration wind shield can be slipped over the sensor to capture the calibration gas for accurate readings. Once in place, tighten the velcro strap and connect the flexible tubing to the nozzle. Otherwise, calibration gas can be applied directly to the sensor through the calibration nozzle.
3. Initiate calibration by either momentarily activating the Calibrate pushbutton shown in Figure 15 or by holding the Cal Magnet near the Cal Switch in the PIRTB (if used) for one second.
The LED will go on steady (if used)
The current output will drop to 2.2 mA.

8. After successful calibration, close the valve on the calibration gas canister, remove the flexible tube from the calibration nozzle and replace the nozzle cap. If the calibration wind shield was used, remove it from the PointWatch Detector. The detector will return to normal operation after the gas level has returned below 5% LFL.
IMPORTANT The calibration ports must be capped to prevent dirt and water from entering the direct path into the optics. Failure to protect the optics can result in a fouled optics fault. If a permanent gas delivery system is used, the delivery tube must be plugged when not in use.
Calibration Procedure – Live Current Output During Calibration
Sequence Summary: During calibration with a live current loop output, the current output drops to 2.2 mA during the zero calibration then rises to reflect the actual gas level for the span calibration. At the end of calibration, the current level locks to indicate that the calibration is complete. These current levels and their significance are summarized as follows:
4.0 mA Zero gas level (0% LFL), initial state – normal operation, no gas present
2.2 mA Zero calibration in progress
12.0 mA Span calibration lock-in
1.6 mA Calibration fault – reset unit.
IMPORTANT LIVE CURRENT OUTPUT CALIBRATION NOTES
· If the PIR9400 is being used in a stand alone configuration, the use of an inactive current loop is recommended. Live current loop calibration was designed primarily for use with the Infiniti U9500 Transmitter or the EQP system. Accomplishing live current loop calibration manually is difficult because precision timing is required.
· Inhibit alarm outputs before performing this calibration procedure. Alarm levels will be exceeded using the live current output calibration procedure.
· All calibration notes listed at the beginning of the “Calibration Procedures” section also apply to this procedure. Review those notes prior to proceeding.

1. Be sure that only clean air is present at the sensor. (The microprocessor begins taking zero readings immediately upon entering the Calibrate mode.) If the possibility of background gases exists, purge the sensor with clean air to ensure accurate calibration.
2. There are two methods of applying the calibration gas. For windy situations, a calibration wind shield can be slipped over the sensor to capture the calibration gas for accurate readings. Once in place, tighten the velcro strap. Otherwise, calibration gas can be applied directly to the sensor through the calibration nozzle.
3. Initiate calibration by either momentarily activating the Calibrate pushbutton shown in Figure 15 or by holding the Cal Magnet near the Cal Switch in the PIRTB (if used) for one second.
The LED will go on steady and the current output will drop to 2.2 mA. After the zero is stable (typically 1 minute), the LED will start to flash and the current level changes to 2.0 mA. When the LED goes off for the first flash, immediately reactivate the calibration switch for one second only. This places the current loop output in the live mode.
The current level rises to 4.0 mA and the LED begins flashing.
If unsuccessful at entering live calibration mode, abort calibration by momentarily reactivating the magnetic calibration switch or pressing the calibrate pushbutton. Repeat steps 1 – 3.
Sekvu paŝon 4.
If calibration mode was inadvertently exited: The LED will turn off
The current output will remain at 4.0 mA (normal operation).
This occurs when the Cal switch is activated for too long when the LED begins flashing. Repeat all of step 3 and proceed.
If zero calibration fails: The LED will turn off
The current output will drop to 1.6 mA.
Reset the detector by cycling power to the detector or by holding the Cal Magnet near the Cal Switch in the PIRTB (if used) for one second. Begin calibration again at step 1.

11.4

95-8440

4. Connect the calibration gas canister, valve and tubing to the direct input nozzle as shown in either Figure 24 (aluminum model) or Figure 25 (stainless steel model) depending on the method used.
5. Apply 50% LFL calibration gas to the detector. This is accomplished by opening the valve on the calibration gas canister (see Figure 24 or Figure 25). A 2.5 liter per minute flow rate is recommended.
The LED will continue flashing
The current output will increase proportionally as the gas concentration increases.
6. The detector will automatically accept the span calibration when the detected gas level is stable (typically 1 to 2 minutes).
After successful span calibration: The LED will turn off steady
The current will lock in steadily at 12.0 mA, indicating a successful span calibration.
Sekvu paŝon 7.
If for any reason a successful calibration is not accomplished within 10 minutes, a calibration fault will occur: The LED will turn off
The current output will drop to 1.6 mA.
Turn off the gas, then reset the detector by cycling power to the detector or by holding the Cal Magnet near the Cal Switch. Begin the calibration sequence again at step 1.
7. After successful calibration, close the valve on the calibration gas canister, remove the flexible tube from the calibration nozzle and replace the nozzle cap. If the calibration wind shield was used, remove it from the detector. After the detector output falls below 45% LFL, the current loop will unlock and will track the declining gas concentration back to 4 mA.
IMPORTANT The calibration ports must be capped to prevent dirt and water from entering the direct path into the optics. Failure to protect the optics can result in a fouled optics fault. If a permanent gas delivery system is used, the delivery tube must be plugged when not in use.

MAINTENANCE
The PointWatch Detector requires less routine maintenance than other combustible gas detectors. This is accomplished through its design that allows no undisclosed internal failures, and an optics protection system that is extremely resistant to fouling by external contamination. The most significant benefit of this design is reduced calibration requirements. When installed and used per the manufacturer’s recommendations, the Model PIR9400 Detector does not require routine calibration, although an annual calibration inspection is recommended as a good practice. More frequent calibrations may be performed at the discretion of the user without adverse impact.
Other recommended maintenance practices include periodic visual inspections of the sensor and/or weather protection system. External contaminants and/or debris, if allowed to accumulate, can reduce sensitivity by physically blocking vapor access to the sensor. Common examples include plastic bags, litter, heavy oil and tar, paint, mud, and snow. This simple visual inspection of all gas sensors is a good idea, especially for outdoor installations.
In the unlikely event that the PIR9400 indicates a fouled optics condition, it is possible to disassemble and clean the optics. However, it is recommended that a spare device be kept on hand to enable complete exchange of the electronics/optics module in the field, enabling the disassembly and cleaning operation to be performed in a clean lab environment.
IMPORTANT MAINTENANCE NOTES
· Use only low vapor pressure silicone grease when lubricating threads on the PointWatch Detector and associated termination box. Do not get this grease on the optics of the detector. A suitable grease is listed in the “Spare Parts” section at the end of this manual. Do not use hydrocarbon-based grease. Doing so will emit hydrocarbon vapors that will be measured by the detector, resulting in inaccurate gas level readings.
· In applications where both PIR9400 and catalytic type sensors are used, ensure that the silicone grease used to lubricate the detector threads does not come into contact with the catalytic sensors or poisoning of the catalytic sensors will result. It is strongly recommended that maintenance personnel wash their hands between handling the two types of sensors.
· Observe precautions for handling electrostatic sensitive devices.

11.4

95-8440

DISASSEMBLY AND CLEANING PROCEDURE
The PointWatch Detector should be inspected periodically to ensure that its performance is not impaired by fouled optics or by clogging of the filter or hydrophobic filter. Inspection and/or periodic maintenance involves three different areas of the detector.
IMPORTANT Remove power before disconnecting and removing the detector for maintenance.
NOTE It is not necessary to remove the electronics assembly from the detector base assembly in order to clean the detector optics.
Filter/Baffle. Perform a visual inspection of the filter/baffle, checking for a variety of environmental contaminants including nests of insects, spiders, etc. Disassemble the PIR9400 and clean as necessary.
WARNING Special conditions for safe use: The plastic baffle (PPA) surface may cause an electrostatic spark. To prevent the risk of electrostatic sparking, this surface should only be cleaned with a damp cloth prior to maintenance or servicing.
Hydrophobic Filter (used on all aluminum and select stainless steel models). While clogging of the hydrophobic filter is rare in most installations, the flow of gas through the filter can be inhibited by an accumulation of extremely fine particles of airborne contaminants. To inspect the hydrophobic filter, disassemble the PIR9400 as described in this section. If the filter appears to be fouled, replace it. As an alternate to a visual inspection of the filter, the PointWatch Detector can be tested using the PointWatch Wind Shield Calibration Bag, available from Det-Tronics. The bag is slipped over the gas detector and secured with a Velcro sealing strap. Gas is applied to the detector through the calibration nozzle on the end of the detector.

IMPORTANT If the Model PIR9400 Detector optics system is disassembled, calibration is required after re-assembly.
Required materials: Clean, flat work surface, foam tipped swabs (no cotton), isopropyl alcohol, screwdriver or hex wrench.
CAUTION The PointWatch Detector contains semiconductor devices that are susceptible to damage by electrostatic discharge. An electrostatic charge can build up on the skin and discharge when an object is touched. Therefore, use caution when handling the device, taking care not to touch electronic components or terminals. If the electronics assembly is removed, it should be placed in an anti-static bag or box while stored or transported. A static safeguarded work area is highly recommended (if available) for disassembly and cleaning of the detector.
1. Disassemble the detector as shown in Figure 10 (aluminum) or Figure 11 (stainless steel). For aluminum models, loosen the two captive screws on the end of the detector and remove the filter assemblies. For stainless steel models, loosen the two captive screws on the end cap, then remove the baffle and stainless steel collar.
2. Loosen the two captive screws on top of the mirror assembly (Figure 12) and slide the mirror assembly, hydrophobic filter and reflector tubes away from the electronics assembly and electronics mounting cover.
3. Disassemble the mirror assembly, reflector tubes and hydrophobic filter as shown in Figure 26 and Figure 27. Do not remove the electronics mounting cover.

IMPORTANT The hydrophobic filter should be replaced whenever the mirror assembly and reflector tubes are cleaned or replaced, or when the filter appears fouled upon visual inspection.

Optics. Cleaning of the optical surfaces is required only if an optical fault is indicated (1.0 mA current output signal from the detector, or an “optics fault” message on the Infiniti U9500, FlexVu UD 10 or FlexVu UD30). This procedure is most easily accomplished on a bench.

4. Thoroughly douse the interior of the mirror assembly as well as the foam tipped swab with isopropyl alcohol. Use the swab to gently cleanse the surfaces of the reflecting mirrors inside the mirror assembly.
5. After cleaning with the swab, flush out the mirror assembly using a liberal amount of isopropyl alcohol. Tip the mirror assembly with mirror openings downward to remove accumulated isopropyl alcohol and particle contaminants. Repeat the alcohol flush to remove any remaining contaminants. Allow the mirror assembly to air dry in a dust-free location.
IMPORTANT Do not insert any sharp object into the mirror assembly. Scratching of the mirrors will void the PointWatch Detector warranty. Do not use cotton tipped swabs or buds as they are likely to leave fiber residue.

6. Clean the two reflector tubes and windows using the procedure described in Step 4.
IMPORTANT Clean the interior of the two reflector tubes with the swab doused with isopropyl alcohol, making sure that the swab is inserted completely through the reflector tubes.
When the mirror assembly and reflector tubes are thoroughly dry, replace the hydrophobic filter (if used) and proceed with re-assembly.
7. Insert the two reflector tubes into the larger holes in the mirror assembly and ensure that they are fully seated. Make sure that the retaining ring that holds the reflector tubes in place is centered on the tubes and not blocking any holes.

NOTE Check the new hydrophobic filter to ensure that the overall length matches the length of the existing filter, or the reflector tubes if no filter was present. If the new filter appears longer than the existing filter, trim off 0.23 inch (slightly less than 1/4 inch) of material from the new filter using a scissors. Take care to not trim the filter too short, as this will allow contaminants direct access to the detector optics and cause nuisance optics faults.
8. If a hydrophobic filter is used, slide a new filter over the two mounting tubes, being careful not to fold or crumple it. The filter should be centered loosely around the two mounting tubes.
9. Carefully slide the mirror/reflector tube assembly into the hydrophobic filter and seat the reflector tubes securely into the windows in the base. Again, be careful not to crumple or fold the hydrophobic filter.
10. Tighten the two captive screws on the top of the mirror assembly. See Figure 10 (aluminum) or Figure 11 (stainless steel). Tighten the screws evenly. Do not over-tighten (apply 1 N·m minimum torque).
11. For aluminum models, slide the outer filter assembly over the mirror assembly. The outer filter should be oriented with the solid portion toward the base of the unit. If it is not oriented correctly, the filter assembly will not slide onto the unit. Slide the inner filter assembly into the outer filter assembly and rotate until it is seated securely, then fasten the two captive screws. See Figure 10.
12. For the stainless steel model, slide the stainless steel collar onto the base assembly, then slide the baffle onto the unit. Place the end cap on the baffle and rotate it until it is seated securely, then fasten the two captive screws (apply 1 N·m minimum torque). See Figure 11.
13. Calibrate the detector with 50% LFL of the gas that matches the calibration gas switch position following the instructions in the “Calibration” section of this manual.

Table 5–Troubleshooting Table

Status Negative Zero Indication

Korekta Agado
NOTE: This phenomenon is typically caused either by the presence of background gas during zero calibration, or by condensation on the device optics. If low level background hydrocarbon gas was present during calibration, the result will be a signal output level below 4 mA when the background gas clears. To correct this, the device must be re-calibrated with all background gas removed. Purge the detector optics with Det-Tronics “zero air” calibration gas for about 30 seconds prior to initiating calibration.

In outdoor environments having high humidity coupled with rapid temperature swings, very small amounts of condensation may form on the optics, causing a temporary (up to a few hours) negative excursion below 4 mA. This phenomenon typically does not cause a loss of detection capability, and will self-correct as the heated optics dry out the residual condensation. Excursions down to the 3.0 mA level may occur without significant loss of detection capability; therefore, it is recommended that “zero drift” alert messages should be set no higher than 3.0 mA, with typical threshold settings between 2.4 and 3.0 mA.

The PIR9400 hydrophobic filter offers significant protection against condensation. Verify that the hydrophobic filter is properly installed and not crumpled or distorted to prevent a direct humidity path into the device optics.
