DEGA NSx-EL III wit an electroc emical sensor
They operate on the principle of chan e of electrical parameters on the electrodes stored in electrolyte, due to
oxidation/reduction reactions of the detected as on it's surface. These sensors have ood selectivity and the ability to detect
very low concentrations of toxic ases.
DEGA NSx-CL III wit a catalytic sensor (Pelistor)
They operate on the principle of catalytic combustion - as concentration is measured based on the amount of heat released
in a controlled combustion reaction. The reaction is supported by a suitable temperature and the pressence of a catalyst.
These sensors can be used to detect a broad ran e of flammable ases. The sensors are characterized by fast response,a lon
lifetime and hi h stability. A minimum of 10% of Oxy en in the air is required for it's proper function.
DEGA NSx-IL III wit an infrared sensor (NDIR)
Top quality scannin method. They operate on the principle of infrared spectroscopy. The sensors have excellent selecivity in
or anic matter, do not require any oxy en in the atmoshpere and are resistant to catalyst poisons (sulfur and silicon
compounds) which cause a chan e of sensitivity of catalytic sensors. The sensors are characterized by hi h stability and a lon
lifetime.
DEGA NSx-SL III wit a semiconductor sensor
They operate on the principle of chan es in electrical conductivity of semiconductors by chan in the concentration of the
detected as. Their advata e is a lon lifetime in a clean environment and a wide ran e of different types of ases and vapors.
Their disadvata e is their low selectivity - the sensor lar ly responds to other ases for which it is not calibrated.

DEGA NSx-PL III PID wit a PID – p otoionization sensor
Typical photoionization detectors measure volatile or anic compounds and other ases in concentrations from sub parts per
billion to 10 000 parts per million (ppm). The photoionization detector is an efficient and inexpensive detector for many as
and vapor analytes. PIDs produce instantaneous readin s, operate continuously, and are commonly used as detectors for as
chromato raphy or as hand-held portable instruments. Hand-held, battery-operated versions are widely used in military,
industrial, and confined workin facilities for health and safety. Their primary use is for monitorin possible worker exposure
to volatile or anic compounds (VOCs) such as solvents, fuels, de reasers, plastics & their precursors, heat transfer fluids,
lubricants, etc. durin manufacturin processes and waste handlin .

Instalation, assembly and disassembly of t e transmitter
Before assemblin , read the valid instalation standarts EN 60079-29-2 (Selection, instalation, use and maintenance of
detectors for combustible ases and oxy en) and EN 45544-4 (Guildelines for the selection, installation, use and maintenance
of detectors of toxic substances).
In explosive environments the electrical installation must be performed accordin to DIN EN 60079.14 (Electrical instalation in
hazardours areas)
Secure that the sensor is reachable by air. The transmitter must be in a free area with no obstacles in its way (furniture etc.)
Ensure that the input of the sensor cannot be polluted by layers of dust or other contamination.
1. Assembly of t e transmitter
The transmitter consists of four parts - the body of the transmitter, the removable sensor and Ex „d“ cable lands.
Transmitter assembly procedure is as follows:
a) Disassemble the transmitter with the four hexa on socket screws 5 mm
b) Disconnect the LCD motherboards
c) Mount the transmitter on a flat surface with four 6 mm fasteners in hei ht above the floor with the as entrance
facin downwards, as specified by the detected substance
d) Direct the cable trou h the cable land
e) Connect the cabelin to the terminal block. When usin the second Ex „d“ cable land, dismout the Ex „d“ blind
plu . It is allowed to use only Ex „d“ cable lands with M20x1,5 threads
f) Connect the LCD
) Assemble the transmitter with the four hexa on sockets scews 5 mm
h) Groun the enclosure by a CUPAL washer a fan washer and a M4 screw
i) The roundin point is between the cable lands
2. Replacement of the sensor module
This activity must not be pe
rformed when the sensor is ener ized.
In case of need to replace the sensor module with a new piece, unscrew and remove
the cover. Disconnect the sensor module cable from the PCB (1), loosen the sink screw
(2) and unscrew the steel cylinder with the sensor (3). Screw the new sensor module,
retain it with the sink screw and connect the cable to the PCB. Finally, mount the cover
and connect to the power supply.
3. Replacement of the battery
The battery lifetime in the sensor is approximately 5 years. After
this time some functions of the
detector may not work properly. Remove the battery from the holder and replace it with one of the
recommended types. Replacin the battery in the transmitter, which is not connected to the power,
will erase the internal clock.

4. Connecting the transmitter via current loop to the controler DEG UP II/DEG UP III
Connect one transmitter to each channel of the controler as shown in the picture below
5. Connecting the sensor via RS485 to the controller DEG UK III/DEG UP III/DEG UD III
6. Installation of wiring for RS485
Wirin must be installed usin bus topolo y and in compliance with the RS485 policy.
The maximum number of connected transmitters per controller channel is 16 (may be less dependin on the confi uration of
the controller), while the total len th of the controller (electrical distance between the controller and the last transmitter)
should not exceed 400 meters.
Selecting t e appropriate type of cable depends on t e fire report and t e protocol for determining external influences.
7. Setting the RS485 adress of the transmitter
Each transmitter must have a unique adress within the entire bus, otherw
i
s
e
there will be
communication collisions and malfunctions.
The transmitter adress can either be set internally usin the De aConfi pro ram or usin the DIP
switch on the PCB.
If the position 6 (labeled ADD) is in the ON position, then the adress accordin to the settin of pins 1-5
is considered. Otherwise the adress set in De aConfi is considered.
The adress can be set from ran e 1-31 usin binary values. A table with DIP settin s for individual
adresses is listed in the attachment "Chart for settin the transmitter adress"
8. Terminating resistor
Accordin to the RS485 specifications, the last device on the bus must be endin with a terminatin
resistor 120R. Plu a jumper on the JP2 connector of the last device on the bus to include the 120R
terminatin resistor. In the default confi uaration, the jumper connector is not plu ed.
9. Communication protocol switch DEG /MODBUS
Plu in a jumper in the JP1 connector will swtich f
r
om the DEGA communication protocol to the
MODBUS communication protocol.

Transmitter functions
The detector's motherboard is equipped by status LEDs, which help in detectin problems durin the installation.
LED „POW“ shines at correct power
LED „TxD“ flashes when transmittin a packet via RS485
LED „RxD“ flashes when a packet is correctly recieved via RS485
LED „ERR“ shines/flashes in case of malfunction or substandart situations
1. Turning on the transmitter
After turnin on the power the LED "POW" starts shinin and the LED "ERR" starts flashin , indicatin a formin sequence of
the sensor and automatic testin procedures, which can take up to 180 s dependin on the sensor used. The output of the
current loop is 1 mA. Durin this sequence, testin of internal electronics and stabilization of the sensor in order to eliminate
false alarms after turnin on, is takin place. At this time, the display only shows the time to the be innin of the
measurement loop.
After completion of the formation, a 4 mA current be ins to flow on the output of the current loop and the transmitter starts
workin accordin to it's settin s.
2. Gas detection
The transmitter continuously measures the detected as concentration in the atmoshpere and converts it's current value into
a 4-20 mA si nal or transmits it's value to the evaluation unit via DEGA/MOBUS protocol.
3. Malfunction
If a malfunction of electronics or the sensor is detected durin operation, the transmitters starts transmittin via a 0,5 mA
current loop. On the PCB this state is indicated by the yellow LED "ERR"
4. Monitoring the calibration periods
The transmitter continuously checks the calibration validity of the connected sensor.
After 12 months since the last calibration (Max. calibration interval) the LED "ERR" starts flashin . The connected sensor must
be calibrated immediately. The transmitter will transmit the information about the endin calibration via current loop. The
transmission will be the followin : 10 s transmittin a 4-20 mA si nal informin about the actual as concentration followin a
1 second interval of 2 mA current.
5. Reading the record of measured concentrations and alarms
The transmitter periodically after 60 s stores the current detected concentration into it's internal memory. The internal
memory retains data from the last 64260 measurements (cca 44 days). In order to read this information, the pro ram
De aConfi is required. Refer to the De aConfi pro ram instruction.
Operation, maintenance, inspection and service of t e transmitter
1. Usage limits
To maintain proper operation of the transmitter it is neccesery to respect the fact, that step chan es of humidity,
condensation or rapid chan es of pressure can cause incorrect indication of the measured value. Each sensin technolo y is
suited for different methods of application, which is described below. All sensors are characterized by a smaller or lar er cross-
sensitivity to other ases than those which are set. Therefore before processin project documentation we recommend to
have the air in the deployment area of the detection system analyzed.
a) catalytic sensors: Trace amount of vapors of silicon compounds and sulfur compounds cause a permanent loss of sensitivity,
which requires recalibration or replacement of the sensor. Lon term crossin of the measurin ran e causes a decrease in
sensitivity. In case of an atmoshpere havin an oxy en content of less than 17%, there will be an underestimaton of the
measured value. In case of an atmoshpere havin an oxy en content of more than 25%, there will be an overestimation of the
measured value.
b) electroc emical sensors: Constant exposure to toxic ases or short-term exposure to ases, which reatly exceed the
maximum ran e of the sensor, can dama e the electrochemical sensor, which requires recalibration or replacement. Hi h

9
temperature alon with low relative humidity have a ne ative effect on the sensor's lifetime. In case of an atmoshpere havin
an oxy en content of less than 1% for lon er than 1 hour, there will be an underestimation of the measured value.
c) infrared sensors: Vapor acids and alkalis can etch the optical system and distort the measurements. A check or a calibration
may be neccesery.
d) semiconductor sensors: Short-term exposure to ases or vapors of or anic solvents, which reatly exceed the maximum
ran e of the sensor, may dama e the sensor and a recalibration or replacement may be required. In case of an atmoshpere
havin na oxy en content of less than 18%, there will be an underestimation of the measured value.
e) p otoionization sensors: the UV lamp or sensor must be replaced re ularly, its clo in may cause loss of si nal.
2. Operation
To maintain proper operation of the transmitter it is neccesery to respect the fact, that the presence of certain concentrations
of ases or vapors, other than those for which the sensor is set, can cause an alarm, even if the concentration of the as does
not exceed the set level. Given the ran e of disturbin ases or vapors (diluents, exhaust ases, vapors of or anic substances,
disinfectants, etc.) a enerally allowable concentration of interferin ases can not be determined. Data on cross-sensitivity to
certail ases are included at the apporpriate sensors. Therefore before processin project documentation we recommend to
have the air in the deployment area of the detection system analyzed .
3. Operation/Maintenance
In case of contamination the surface can be cleaned with a sli htly moistened cloth.
The seonsors have a different lifetime dependin on the sensin technolo y used, and environmental conditions.
Characteristics of the sensors vary over time. Therefore it is required to perform re ular checks and calibrations, which can be
done in two ways:
a) 1 x every six mont s carry out a „calibration“ and functional control - adjust the sesitivity of the sensor usin
calibration as and check the functionality of the system. The exact interval depends on the purity of the environment,
required accuracy and the occurrance of disturbin ases in the atmoshpere.
b) 1 x every twelve mont s carry out a „calibration“ - adjust the sesitivity of the sensor usin calibration as and check the
functionality of the system. The exact interval depends on the purity of the environment, required accuracy and the
occurrance of disturbin ases in the atmoshpere. Also carry out a „functional control" 1 x every t ree mont s -
checkin the function of the entire detection system usin a test as, which does not exceed the ran e of the sensor.
We recommend usin as intended for laboratory use.
For t e „functional control“ do not use means for testing fire alarm detectors!
Perform calibration only at certified service centers with a valid certificate of competence or the manufacturer.
