One person can complete calibration and maintenance, reducing labor costs
Automatic suppression output: When entering the menu or calibration, the 4-20mA output automatically switches to suppression current (default 2mA) to avoid false alarms
Through magnetic stick operation, users can adjust the following parameters:
measurement range
Alarm setting value
Relay action mode (normally open/normally closed, power on/off, latch/non latch)
Electronic tag number (for device identification)
Calibration gas concentration
Suppress current and timeout period
Electrical interface and communication capability
Sensepoint XCD provides multiple electrical interfaces to meet the integration requirements of different control systems:
1. Analog output
Type: 4-20mA, can select source or sink type through internal dip switch
Load resistance: maximum 250 Ω
Special current state:
≤ 1mA: System malfunction
2mA: Start or inhibit state
4-20mA: Normal measurement
22mA: Over range
2. Relay output
Quantity: 3 groups, each with a capacity of 5A @ 250VAC
Configuration: 2 sets of programmable alarm relays, 1 set of fault relays
Function: Supports multiple modes such as normally open/normally closed, power on/off, latch/non latch, etc
3. Digital communication
Modbus RTU: optional Modbus module, communicates with PLC, DCS or upper computer through RS485 bus
Advantages: Supports networking of multiple devices, significantly saves wiring costs, and enables remote diagnosis and configuration
4. Wiring convenience
Pluggable terminals: The terminal module adopts a plug-in design, which is convenient for on-site wiring and replacement
Independent display module: The display module can be easily unplugged to expose the terminal area, and can be plugged back in after wiring
Inlet: Provide 2 M20 or 3/4 "NPT inlet ports (depending on the certified version), compatible with conduit or armored cables
Installation flexibility and accessory system
The installation design of Sensepoint XCD fully considers the diversity of the site and supports multiple installation methods and accessory combinations:
1. Installation method
Wall installation: Use the built-in mounting plate of the transmitter to directly fix it
Pipeline installation: Use pipeline installation brackets (SPXCDMTMB) to install on horizontal or vertical risers (diameter 40-80mm)
2. Sensor installation options
Direct installation: The sensor is directly screwed into the bottom of the transmitter
Remote installation: With the remote sensor installation kit, the sensor and transmitter can be installed separately, with a maximum distance of up to 30 meters (to be verified based on site conditions)
3. Key accessories
Accessory name, model, and purpose
Standard weather protection cover SPXCDWP is essential for outdoor installation, protecting sensors from wind and rain
When using the calibration cap S3KCAL with calibration gas, ensure that the gas accurately covers the sensor
Gas collection cone SPXCDCC is used to detect the accumulation of gases lighter than air, such as methane
The duct installation kit SPXCDDMK is suitable for gas monitoring inside HVAC system ducts
Sun/Rain Cover SPXCDSDP is suitable for tropical or strong sunlight environments to prevent overheating and thermal shock
Pipeline installation bracket SPXCDMTMB installs the transmitter on the riser or horizontal pipe
Remote sensor installation kit SPXCDRSK enables separate installation of sensors and transmitters
Sensor plug kit SPXCDRSPK is used to connect sensors and transmitters for remote installation
