Product description
E2658 is a series of flameproof gas detectors-transmitters intended for operation in safe
zones and ATEX Zones 2 and 22. E2658 series devices are based on PluraSens®
multifunctional platform and provide all its features. The instruments utilize gas sensors of
various types with excellent repeatability, stability, and long lifetime.
E2658 series provides two independent analog outputs OUT1 and OUT2, user-selectable to
4-20 mA or 0-10 V, proportional to gas concentrations. RS485 Modbus RTU digital
communication interface allows easy instrument configuration and integration into various
automation systems.
The following features are available as an option:
●Two relays RE1 and RE2 with closing contacts. Relay outputs can be used to
switch alarm sirens, ventilation fans, shut-off valves, or other actuators,
●24 VAC or 230 VAC as options for power supply.
The version of your detector is marked on the package. If the symbol ⚠ is marked on the
equipment, consult the documentation for further information.
Safety requirements
Misuse will impair the protection of the product. Always adhere to the safety provisions
applicable in the country of use.
Do not perform any maintenance operation with the power on. Do not let water or foreign
objects inside the device.
Removal of the PCB from the enclosure voids the warranty. Do not touch the electronic
components directly, as they are sensitive to static electricity.
Connection diagrams can be found in the electrical connections section. The device might
not perform correctly or be damaged if the wrong power supply is connected.
It is crucial to tighten properly all the thread connections (screws, cable glands). Use ATEX
certified armored cables or cable conduits that are rated for use in the desired
environment.
A disconnecting device that is marked as such and easily accessible should be included in
the installation of this product.
The device should be properly earthed.

E2658-H2S Rev 12.03.2021
Operating conditions
The device should be used in a basic electromagnetic environment, where the latter is
defined in EN 61326-1. Avoid strong mechanical shock and vibrations. Although E2658
series devices are suitable for use in the presence of flammable dust, special precautions
should be taken when operating in a dusty environment. Dust may block the porous filter of
the sensor and compromise the results of the measurement. The detector should be
inspected regularly if used in a dusty atmosphere. Keep the instrument away from direct
sunlight. A sudden temperature or humidity change might affect the sensitivity of the
sensor. Make sure that installation and maintenance are performed in an explosion safe
atmosphere.
Installation guidelines
Before proceeding with the installation it is mandatory to read the Safety requirements
section and make sure to comply with all listed instructions. Installation standards EN
60079-29-2 and EN 45544-4 are also recommended for further instructions and related
information about the installation. During the installation of the detector-transmitter the
following points must be considered:
●Application (air quality control or leakage detection.)
●Properties of the space under investigation (room geometry, direction, and
velocity of airflows, etc.),
●Hydrogen sulfide is slightly heavier than air and spreads evenly in the room. The
recommended location is close to the potential leakage source.
●The device should be accessible for maintenance and repair.
The aforementioned conditions above will affect the coverage area of the device. however,
the coverage area for a detector-transmitter is usually between 2.5 to 5 meters radius.
For early leakage detection install the sensor as close as possible to the potential leakage
sources (flanges, valves, pressure reducers, pumps, etc.), taking into consideration other
points listed above.
For general area monitoring without definite leakage sources, the detectors should be
distributed evenly in the room.
For personal safety control, the detectors are installed in the breathing zone (at the height
of the head of people or animals). The recommended sensor position is vertical, pointing
downwards.

E2658-H2S Rev 12.03.2021
The device is fixed on the wall using two fixing holes located outside the sealed area of the
device (see dimensional drawing). Unscrew four lid screws and detach the lid from the
detector. Fix the detector on the wall and earth the enclosure using an earthing terminal on
the side of the device.
NOTE! Never perform installation or maintenance in an explosive atmosphere!

Sensor probe handling
The sensor probes of all types are equipped with a hydrophobic microporous PTFE filter to
protect the sensor from dust, dirt, and water drops. The filter should be replaced if it gets
strongly contaminated. To replace the PTFE filter, unscrew the sensor head cap and
remove the old filter. Place a new filter into the cap and tighten it again.
NOTE! Never stab or press the filter near its center where the sensor is located since this
may damage the sensor. Do not remove the filter as it may cause the device to show
incorrect values and/or break the sensor.
The recommended orientation of the sensor probe is vertical with the sensor tip pointing
downwards. This prevents the possible accumulation of condensed water on the sensor
protection filter.
Gas sensor replacement procedures
1. Remove the sensor head cap from the device,
2. Remove the PTFE filter (if it is not removed within the cap),
3. Remove the O-ring rubber,
4. Detach the electrochemical sensor from the device,
5. Insert the new electrochemical sensor inside,
6. Put back the O-ring rubber, PTFE filter, and the head cap, respectively.
10

E2658-H2S Rev 12.03.2021
Electrical connections
Unscrew four lid screws and detach the lid from the device. Use the M25 cable gland to let
in the cables of the power supply and of the external devices. Without turning on the power,
plug the power cable, and connect the analog/relay outputs and/or digital interface
terminals to the necessary devices according to the relevant connection diagram.

The screwless quick connect spring terminals on the E2658 series devices are suitable for
a wide range of wires with cross-section 0,5...1,5 mm2. We recommend to strip the wire end
by 8...9 mm and use the wire end sleeves.
To connect the wire, insert the wire end into the terminal hole. To disconnect, push the
spring-loaded terminal lever, pull the wire out, and release the lever.
Use a twisted-pair cable, e.g. LiYY TP 2×2×0.5 mm2or CAT 5, to connect the device to the
RS485 network. A and B on the device represent DATA+ and DATA- respectively, polarity
must be respected when connecting to an external RS485 network.
Both analog outputs can be independently changed between 4-20 mA and 0-10 V type
using jumpers J1 (OUT1) and J2 (OUT2). By closing pins on a specific jumper the related
output is 0-10 V, with an open jumper the output is 4-20 mA. Power restart is required after
changing the position of the jumpers.
NOTE! The outputs are not galvanically isolated from the external power supply and share
a common 0V. Allowed load resistance limits are stated in the Specifications table. To
power the instrument from an external power source, connect terminals 0V and +U to the
source. If the integrated mains power supply module is used, connect terminals L and N to
the mains.
NOTE! Actuator short-circuits should be avoided, to protect the instrument relays using
external fuses or safety switches.
