Combustible Gases Detector-Transmitter E2611-LEL is fintended for early
detection of leakages or accumulation of light hydrocarbon gases (acetylene,
methane, propane, butane) and hydrogen.
The instrument is based on fully calibrated and temperature compensated
semiconductor metal-oxide (MOS) gas sensor ith high repeatability, stability and
long lifetime. Pellistor (catalytic bead) sensor is available as an option.
E2611 series devices provide t o independent analog outputs OUT1 and OUT2,
user-selectable to 4-20 mA or 0-10 V, proportional either to gas concentration or
temperature. RS485 Modbus RTU digital communication interface allo s easy
instrument configuration and integration into various automation systems. T o
relays RE1 and RE2 ith closing contacts can be used to s itch 24 V or 230 V
po ered alarm sirens, ventilation fans, shut-off valves or other actuators.
Safety requirements
Al ays adhere to the safety provisions applicable in the country of use. Do not
perform any maintenance operation ith the po er on. Do not let ater or foreign
objects inside the device.
Operating con itions
•The device should be used in explosion-safe (non ATEX -rated) indoor areas at
the atmospheric pressure ±10%, <95 %RH, ithout condensation, and temperature
ithin the range -30...+70 °C for MOS-type devices / -20...+60 °C for pellistor type.
•Metal-oxide and pellistor sensors cannot properly operate in a zero or lo oxygen
content atmosphere. Normal ambient oxygen concentration is recommended.
•Avoid exposure to highly corrosive gases (H2S, SO2, HCl, Cl2 etc), and volatile
silicone containing materials.
•Avoid mechanical shock or strong vibrations.
•Avoid sources of electromagnetic interference
Installation an connections
The gas detector should be mounted on a all at a place locatedas close as
possible to a possible gas leakage source and not very close to ventilation
openings, ith the sensor pointing do n ards. Avoid the areas ithout air
circulation (corners, niches) as ell. To detect gases lighter than air (methane,
hydrogen), install the sensor higher than potential leakage/generation source or
near the ceiling. To detect propane and butane (1.55 and 2.0 of air density
respectively), it is recommended to place the sensor lo er than potential gas
sourse. Take into consideraton the temperature of the detected gas, the geometry
of the room under investigation, the direction and speed of air currentsThe device
should be available for maintenance and repair.
To install and connect the device, proceed as follo s:
1. Detach the base of the enclosure by gently pulling along four guiding pins.
2. Attach the base to the all ith t o scre s. (see dimensional dra ing belo ).

Control LED
To po er the instrument from an external 24 VDC source, connect terminals 0 V
and +U to the source. If an integrated mains po er supply module is used, connect
terminals L and N to the mains.
NB! If the instrument is po ered from mains, connect to 0 V and +U terminals only
light external loads, hich consume less than 30 mA in total, as the integrated
mains supply module capacity is limited.
To use analog outputs, connect the terminals OUT1 and/or OUT2 and 0 V to the
input of the secondary instrument (indicator or controller).
NB! The outputs are not galvanically isolated from 24 V po er supply and share
common 0 V. Allo ed load resistance limits are stated in Specifications table.
The type of each analog output can be independently changed bet een 4-20 mA
and 0-10 V ith jumpers J1 (OUT1) and J2 (OUT2).
With closed jumper the output is 0-10 V, ith open jumper the output is 4-20 mA. By
default both outputs OUT1 and OUT2 are assigned to gas concentration. The
device has built-in temperature sensor hich may be tied to any of the outputs. The
output assignments and scales can be changed by Modbus commands.
We recommend to set the difference bet een the upper and bottom limits of the
output scale not narro er than 20% of detection range. In any case, do not set the
output scale belo the tenfold resolution of the device.
To use relay outputs, connect the chosen actuators to the relay terminals RE1
and/or RE2.
NB! Actuator short-circuits shall be avoided, to protect the instrument relays use
external fuses or safety s itches.
4. Turn on the po er. It may take up to five minutes after s itching on for the
sensor to stabilize. During this period relays, analog outputs and Modbus interface
are off. A LED placed on the PCB of the device allo s to control the connection
process. The LED response to different processes is presented in the table belo .

5. Push the enclosure to the base.
Operation
For best stability the gas detector should be po ered permanently. If the instrument
is left for a long time in unpo ered state, then after initial po er-on the metal-oxide
gas sensor needs some time to heat up and burn adsorbed contaminants. So for
first tens of seconds of fe minutes an alarm activation may be possible. After this
heating-up period the instrument turns into normal mode.
When the concentration of the detected gas reaches the LOW alarm level, the
control LED starts blinking and the buzzer starts beeping ith 1 Hz frequency.
When the HI alarm level is reached, the frequency of blinking/beeping is 2 Hz. The
alarm signal turns off automatically, if gas concentration decreases to 80% of the
alarm setpoint.

proceed as follo s:
1. De-energize the device 2. Connect the J3 jumper
3. Turn on the device 4. De-energize the device
5. Disconnect the J3 jumper 6. Turn on the device
Calibration
E2611-LPG has been calibrated by Manufacturer ith standard gas mixtures before
delivery. The semiconductor gas sensor exhibits high stability and > 5 years
lifetime. Ho ever, as the gas sensor is directly exposed to environment, the
instrument requires at least annual field recalibration ith a portable calibration kit.
The catalytic sensor is more sensitive to the environment and requires calibration
every 3...6 months.
The calibration should be performed by trained specialist. Please contact your
dealer for more information.
