DETECTOR OUTPUT
The non-isolated 4-20 mA dc drive circuitry is rated at a

maximum 600 ohms loop resistance with 24 Vdc supply

voltage.

DET-TRONICS OPTIONAL JUNCTION BOXES
When not connected directly to a transmitter/control

device, the NTMOS Gas Detector can be connected

to a Gas Detector Termination Box (GDTB) Termination

Box. The GDTB contains a circuit board with the required

connectors for proper field wiring, as well as an internal

magnetic switch for non-intrusive detector calibration and

an LED to indicate calibration status. Refer to the GDTB

instruction manual (95-8644) for complete information

regarding the GDTB.

DET-TRONICS DISPLAYS/TRANSMITTERS
The NTMOS Gas Detector integrates easily with the

following Det-Tronics transmitters:

FlexVu Model UD10
The FlexVu UD10 Display Unit provides the approved

function of a low concentration gas controller for the

NTMOS Detector. The UD10 is designed and approved

as a stand-alone controller when connected to a certified

gas detector, such as the NTMOS, and performs all the

functions of a gas controller.

Gas concentrations are displayed on an alphanumeric

display in PPM. The UD10 provides a linear isolated/

non-isolated 4-20 mA DC output signal (with HART)

that corresponds to the detected gas concentration or

indicates a fault condition.

All electronics are enclosed in an explosion-proof

aluminum or stainless steel housing. The display unit is

used with a single detector that may be either coupled

directly to the UD10, or remotely located using a Sensor

Termination Box model STB or GDTB.

The UD10 features non-intrusive calibration. A magnet

is used to perform calibration as well as to navigate the

internal configuration menu. Refer to the UD10 instruction

manual, 95-8618, for complete information regarding the

FlexVu UD10 Display Unit.

U9500 Infiniti Transmitter
The U9500B Infiniti

®

transmitter is a single channel

device. In addition to the standard 4-20 mA analog

signal output, the U9500B offers 4 optional relay outputs

for fault and alarm indications. The 4 outputs are: fault,

high alarm, low alarm, and auxiliary alarm. The relays

have form C (SPDT) contacts. The alarm relay contacts

are selectable as a group for latching or non-latching.

During normal operation, the fault relay is non-latching,

but for initialization faults, the fault relay latches. The

alarm relays are also selectable, as a group, for normally

energized or de-energized (no alarms). The fault relay is

always normally energized (no fault). Refer to the Infiniti

Transmitter instruction manual, 95-8444, for complete

information regarding the transmitter.

INSTALLATION

CAUTION

The wiring procedures in this manual are intended
to ensure proper functioning of the device under
normal conditions. However, because of the
many variations in wiring codes and regulations,
total compliance to these ordinances cannot be
guaranteed. Be certain that all wiring complies
with applicable regulations that relate to the
installation of electrical equipment in a hazardous
area. If in doubt, consult the authority having
jurisdiction before wiring the system.

IMPORTANT

Considering that H

2

S is heavier than air, and in

order to maintain IP66/IP67 Ingress Protection
rating, the detector must be mounted vertically at a
maximum height of 18 inches from surfaces below.

NOTE

The NTMOS Detector shall be connected to a
performance certified low concentration gas
controller, with latching alarms.

CAUTION

Exposing the NTMOS Detector to silicones will
dramatically reduce its sensor response and
sensor life, and must be avoided.
