DEGA NSx-EL III with an electrochemical sensor
They operate on the principle of change of electrical parameters on the electrodes stored in electrolyte, due to
oxidation/reduction reactions of the detected gas on it's surface. These sensors have good selectivity and the ability to detect
very low concentrations of toxic gases.

DEGA NSx-CL III with a catalytic sensor (Pelistor)
They operate on the principle of catalytic combustion - gas 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 range of flammable gases. The sensors are characterized by fast response,a long
lifetime and high stability. A minimum of 10% of Oxygen in the air is required for it's proper function.
DEGA NSx-IL III with an infrared sensor (NDIR)
Top quality scanning method. They operate on the principle of infrared spectroscopy. The sensors have excellent selecivity in
organic matter, do not require any oxygen in the atmoshpere and are resistant to catalyst poisons (sulfur and silicon
compounds) which cause a change of sensitivity of catalytic sensors. The sensors are characterized by high stability and a long
lifetime.
DEGA NSx-SL III with a semiconductor sensor
Cheapest method of scanning. They operate on the principle of changes in electrical conductivity of semiconductors by
changing the concentration of the detected gas. Their advatage is a long lifetime in a clean environment and a wide range of
different types of gases and vapors. Their disadvatage is their low selectivity - the sensor largly responds to other gases for
which it is not calibrated.

Instalation, assembly and disassembly of the transmitter
Before assembling, read the valid instalation standarts EN 60079-29-2 (Selection, instalation, use and maintenance of
detectors for combustible gases and oxygen) 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 according 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 the transmitter
The transmitter consists of four parts - the body of the transmitter, the removable sensor and Ex „d“ bushings.
Transmitter assembly procedure is as follows:
a) Disassemble the transmitter with the four hexagon socket screws 4mm
b) Disconnect the LCD motherboards
c) Mount the transmitter on a flat surface with four 6mm fasteners in height above the floor with the gas
entrance facing downwards, as specified by the detected substance
d) Direct the cable trough the bushing
e) Connect the cabeling to the terminal block. When using the second Ex „d“ bushing, dismout the Ex „d“
blind plug. It is allowed to use only Ex „d“ bushings with M20x1,5 threads
f) Connect the LCD
g) Assemble the transmitter with the four hexagon sockets scews 4mm
2. Replacement of the sensor module
This activity must not be performed when the sensor is energized.
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
Životnost baterie ve snímači je asi 5 let. Po této době již nemusí být některé funkce detektoru
zachovány. Baterii vyjmeme z držáku a nahradíme ji typem Panasonic BR2032. Výměnou baterie ve
snímači, který není pod napájením, dojde k vymazání interních hodin.

6. Installation of wiring for RS485
Wiring must be done using bus topology and according to the RS485 principles.
Maximum number of connected transmitters per controler channel is 16 (may be less depending on the
configuration of the controller), while the total length of the connecting cable (electrical distance between the
controller and the last transmitter) should not exceed 1200 meters. Due to voltage disposals caused by each
transmitter, the maximum addition of distances must be L1+L2+L3+…+L16:

Selecting the appropriate type of cable depends on the fire report and the protocol for determining external influences.
7. Setting the RS485 adress of the transmitter
Each transmitter must have a unique adress within the entire bus, otherwise there will be
communication collisions and malfunctions.
The transmitter adress can either be set internally using the DegaConfig program or using the DIP
switch on the PCB.
If the position 6 (labeled ADD) is in the ON position, then the adress according to the setting of pins 1-5
is considered. Otherwise the adress set in DegaConfig is considered.
The adress can be set from range 1-31 using binary values. A table with DIP settings for individual
adresses is listed in the attachment "Chart for setting the transmitter adress"
8. Terminating resistor
According to the RS485 specifications, the last device on the bus must be ending with a terminating
resistor 120R. Plug a jumper on the JP2 connector of the last device on the bus to include the 120R
terminating resistor. In the default configuaration the jumper connector is not plugged.

9. Communication protocol switch DEGA/MODBUS
Plugging a jumper in the JP1 connector will swtich from the DEGA communication protocol to the
MODBUS communication protocol.
Transmitter functions
The detector's motherboard is equipped by status LEDs, which help in detecting problems during the installation.
LED „POW“ shines at correct power
LED „TxD“ flashes when transmitting 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 turning on the power the LED "POW" starts shining and the LED "ERR" starts flashing, indicating a forming
sequence of the sensor and automatic testing procedures, which can take up to 180s depending on the sensor used.
The output of the current loop is 1mA. During this sequence, testing of internal electronics and stabilization of the
sensor in order to eliminate false alarms after turning on, is taking place. At this time, the display only shows the
time to the beginning of the measurement loop.
After completion of the formation, a 4mA current begins to flow on the output of the current loop and the
transmitter starts working according to it's settings.
2. Gas detection
The transmitter continuously measures the detected gas concentration in the atmoshpere and converts it's current
value into a 4-20 mA signal 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 during operation, the transmitters starts transmitting via a
0,5mA 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 flashing. The connected
sensor must be calibrated immediately. The transmitter will transmit the information about the ending calibration
via current loop. The transmission will be the following: 10s transmitting a 4-20mA signal informing about the actual
gas concentration following a 1 second interval of 2mA current.
5. Reading the record of measured concentrations and alarms
The transmitter periodically after 60s 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 program DegaConfig is required. Refer to the DegaConfig program instruction.
Operation, maintenance, inspection and service of the transmitter
1. Usage limits
To maintain proper operation of the transmitter it is neccesery to respect the fact, that step changes of humidity,
condensation or rapid changes of pressure can cause incorrect indication of the measured value. Each sensing technology is
suited for different methods of application, which is described below. All sensors are characterized by a smaller or larger cross-

9
sensitivity to other gases than those which are set. Therefore before processing 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. Longterm crossing of the measuring range causes a decrease in
sensitivity. In case of an atmoshpere having an oxygen content of less than 17%, there will be an underestimaton of the
measured value. In case of an atmoshpere having an oxygen content of more than 25%, there will be an overestimation of the
measured value.
b) electrochemical sensors:Constant exposure to toxic gases or short-term exposure to gases, which greatly exceed the
maximum range of the sensor, can damage the electrochemical sensor, which requires recalibration or replacement. High
temperature along with low relative humidity have a negative effect on the sensor's lifetime. In case of an atmoshpere having
an oxygen content of less than 1% for longer 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 gases or vapors of organic solvents, which greatly exceed the maximum
range of the sensor, may damage the sensor and a recalibration or replacement may be required. In case of an atmoshpere
having na oxygen content of less than 18%, there will be an underestimation of the measured value.
2. Operation
To maintain proper operation of the transmitter it is neccesery to respect the fact, that the presence of certain concentrations
of gases or vapors, other than those for which the sensor is set, can cause an alarm, even if the concentration of the gas does
not exceed the set level. Given the range of disturbing gases or vapors (diluents, exhaust gases, vapors of organic substances,
disinfectants, etc.) a generally allowable concentration of interfering gases can not be determined. Data on cross-sensitivity to
certail gases are included at the apporpriate sensors. Therefore before processing 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 slightly moistened cloth.
The seonsors have a different lifetime depending on the sensing technology used, and environmental conditions.
Characteristics of the sensors vary over time. Therefore it is required to perform regular checks and calibrations, which can be
done in two ways:
a) 1x every six months carry out a „calibration“ and functional control - adjust the sesitivity of the sensor using calibration
gas and check the functionality of the system. The exact interval depends on the purity of the environment, required
accuracy and the occurrance of disturbing gases in the atmoshpere.
b) 1x every twelve months carry out a „calibration“ - adjust the sesitivity of the sensor using calibration gas and check the
functionality of the system. The exact interval depends on the purity of the environment, required accuracy and the
occurrance of disturbing gases in the atmoshpere. Also carry out a „functional control" 1 x every three months -
checking the function of the entire detection system using a test gas, which does not exceed the range of the sensor.
We recommend using gas intended for laboratory use.
For the „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.

General warranty terms and conditions
When following the instructions for installation, operation and maintenance, the manufacturer guarantee 24 months from
the date of receipt for the product. Should the product purchased be put into operation by an entity other than the seller, the
warranty period commences from the date that the product is put into operation, provided that the buyer ordered its
commissioning within three weeks of its receipt. The customer expressly acknowledges that during the warranty period that
extends beyond the length of the warranty period that is specified in the Commercial Code (the statutory warranty) s/he can
neither require replacement of the product nor may s/he withdraw from the contract.
1. When claiming a product defect it is necessary to submit a proof of purchase that contains the following information:
name and surname, name and business name, address and the warranty card, if the buyer received one from the seller.
The validity of the warranty shall not be affected by non-compliance with the obligations related to the issuance of the
warranty card.
2. Claims concerning the product (for a warranty repair only complete devices are accepted) may be filed during the
warranty period only with the seller from which it was purchased; subsequently the seller is required to forward the
product to an authorised service centre or to the manufacturer.
3. A condition for the recognition of the rights under the warranty is the installation of the product having been undertaken
by an authorised person in possession of a valid certificate from the manufacturer.
5. Claims regarding a product defect that can be dealt with reasonably quickly and without additional consequences will be
resolved by remedying the defect (repair) or by replacement of the product part , because in such a case it is a
contradiction of the standard norms that the entire product shall be replaced (§ 616, paragraph 4 of the Commercial
Code).
6. The buyer who exercises the right of warranty repair is not entitled to the return of the parts that have been replaced.
7. The warranty period can be extended for up to 48 months and its validity can be extended beyond the standard length on
the basis of the conclusion of an individual warranty contract. Further information may be obtained through a specific
business meeting.
This warranty is not applicable to:
•a product that has not been put into operation by the manufacturer or by a certified employee in possession of a valid
certificate issued by the manufacturer
•A product that did not have regulary performed calibrations and functional checks by the manufacturer or by a certified
employee is possession of a valid certificate issued by the manufacturer.
•damage caused by fire, water, static electricity, power surges in the electric supply or in the public network, accident,
improper use of the product, wear and tear
•contamination of the product and its subsequent cleaning
•damage caused by improper installation, any adjustment, modification or improper manner of use inconsistent with the
instruction manual, the technical standards or the applicable safety regulations in the Czech Republic
•damage to the product during transportation caused by improper handling or handling of the product in a manner
contrary to the advice provided in the instruction manual
•DEGA products that have been used in association with other than original DEGA products, including consumables and
accessories
•bearing additional parts or consumables (e.g. a foil label, seal, etc.), that are detrimental to normal wear and tear during
operation, together with wear and tear of the product and its parts caused by their normal use
