 I/O Circuitry and Customer Interface

The input circuit is identical for all channels. One channel monitors the Input of the O2 Sensor, another
the CO Sensor and last channel the CO2 sensor, and interfaces the signals that it receives to the
microcontroller module. These are all pre-wired within the control panel.
The input module on the control board is designed to accommodate Sensors that supplies signals in
any of the following formats:
(a) 2- wire Current source 4 – 20mA.
(b) 3-wire power plus Current source 4 – 20mA.

The channel outputs are as follows.

The transmitted signal can be configured using jumpers to provide one of three output options:
• 4 – 20mA Current Source proportional to the detected signal.
• 4 – 20mA Current Sink proportional to the detected signal.
• 0-5V Voltage Output proportional to the detected signal.

The 4-20mA Outputs are as follows: (situated on control panel backplate)

Terminals 16 and 17, + and – output for CO2 Sensor -Channel 1

Terminals 18 and 19, + and – output for CO Sensor.- Channel 2
Terminals 20 and 21, + and – output for O2 Sensor- Channel 3

Situated on each of the three Input Modules are 2 single-pole change-over relays, ( one pair related to
the O2 Sensor, one pair to the CO Sensor and one pair to the CO2 Sensor. All relays have contacts
rated at 5A (240V AC). These relays operate at the alarm levels when enabled. Ntron are able to
implement modifications to the software to meet a customer’s specific requirement.
The Relays are programmed to be Energised when the control panel is powered and in healthy
condition. They de-energise when an alarm event occurs. It is recommended that a ‘fail safe’ protocol
is followed when implementing these relay outputs into a control system, so that in Alarm condition (or
power failure to the control panel) the contacts of the associated relay to the connected external
circuit, are open (no circuit). This is known as ‘Fail Open’.

5 Fail Closed Channel 1 CO2
6 Fail open

Screen terminals are provided for the connecting cable screens on all of the above terminal
connection points.

 1.1 INSTALLATION

Dimensions

390mm x 400mm x 200mm (Height x Width x Depth)

Siting the Mogas93

THE Mogas93 ANALYSER MUST BE SITED IN A NON-HAZARDOUS LOCATION WHERE THERE
IS NO RISK OF THE PRESENCE OF POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE GAS.

A 100-240VAC 50 Hz supply is to be used to power the Mogas93.

The site of installation should be chosen with regard to the following:

• This equipment should not be located near to known sources of heat.

• Operating personnel should be within convenient reach of the equipment and within audible
distance of alarms.
• Avoid mounting this equipment near potential sources of electrical interference e.g. motors,
switch gear, radio transmitters etc.

 System Wiring
All connections should be made according to the connection details in this document and any
associated wiring diagrams specific to the system of which this control panel is a part of. It is advised
that ‘Bootlace Ferrules’ or ‘flat blade crimps’ be used for tidy and reliable connections of wires into the
Control Unit and Detector Head connectors.

Power Supply Input/Customer A.C. mains connection

100-240V AC Mains Supply, connectors 1, 2 and 3 on the main panel backplate.

Pin 1 =Live input
Pin 2 = Neutral input
Pin 3 =Earth input
A pre-wired connection lead is provided for the customer so no connection to these terminals is
required by the customer.

There are two fuses situated on the main Control Board. These are:

FS1 (T1.0A) AC supply Fuse (Not used)

FS2 (T500mA) DC Supply Fuse

The main control board is powered via the 24VDC option and the mains input option to this board is
not used.

An isolating switch should be provided between the power source and the Mogas93 Analyser to allow
the supply to be easily disconnected. This should incorporate over current protection or a circuit
breaker. Alternatively a fused supply would suffice.

Locations of the mains and interface terminals are shown below.

 1.2 Sample Measurement
The sampling Circuit consists of a Regulator, Flowmeter, CO2, CO and O2 Sensors/Transmitters and
Flowmeters. Please see photograph and diagrams that follow.

A positive Pressure sample Gas enters the Mogas93 ‘Sample In’ port, and is regulated to no more
than 5 PSIG by the adjustable regulator, visible on a gauge.

The Sample Gas then passes through the system Flowmeter.

The Sample Gas Flow Rate is visible for setting and adjustment via the Flowmeter.
The Sample Gas now passes through the CO2 Sensor and then the CO Sensor and then through
the O2 Sensor. These Sensors are each housed in a ‘Flow Through’ Housing, which allows the
same Sample to be analysed by all sensors in turn.
Sample Flowmeter set to 250 mL/Min
The Sensor/Transmitter units all give a 4-20mA output into the control board proportional to the gas
concentration and moisture level measured.

The Sample Gas is exhausted from the Mogas93 via the ‘sample Out’ port.

Both Sample gas In and Sample Gas Out ports are Stainless Steel ¼ ” o r 6mm Bulkhead
Compression fittings. Suitable Piping and Filtration if required, is to be provided and fitted by the end
user.

Rev.1.3
All connecting pipework is to be provided by the customer/end user.

The standard pipework connections into the panel are ¼” or 6mm compression fittings
depending on customer specification at time of order.

Stainless Steel pipework is recommended though other materials are not precluded
depending on process media being measured and security/mechanical protection of the
installation..

The sample exhaust should be vented to a suitable location. Back pressure not to exceed
1psig. ( or in some circumstances to process if a suitable pressure differential is
available)
