1. INTRODUCTION
The HGS-100 System is dedicated to analyze gases in tanks (ballast, cargo, …), void spaces or any possible
dangerous area, in order to detect any gas concentration level over or under safety limits and to monitor
actions as visible and audible alarms. That system complies with ISGOTT regulation chap. 7.8 and 8.2
The HGS-100 System is a Gas Monitoring based on suction process sampling toward one or more common
detector(s), combined with analog inputs from local gas detectors.
Controlled Gases are :
¾ Hydrocarbon gases
¾ Oxygen
¾ Hydrogen Sulphide
¾ Carbon monoxide
¾ Sulphur dioxide
¾ Nitrogen monoxide
¾ Nitrogen dioxide
¾ Ammonia
¾ Chlorine
¾ Hydrides
¾ Other on request
The sampling points for suction process are to be placed as close as possible to the gas emission source.
However regarding the ballast tanks, they can be placed on tank top even if the gas emission is in tank
bottom, in order to preserve the longest efficient period when ballast tanks are filling up, to ensure the fire
prevention efficiency of the system as fire can be caused by gas coming out on desk from tank top, and
also because gases are pushed toward top by tank filling (IMO Sub-Committee on fire protection).
The local detectors can be placed in pump room, engine room, accommodations, venting ducts, air-
conditioned ducts.

1.1. Operating Principle
The hydrocarbon gas detector is an essential system in the cargo oil tanker, the gas carrier, the chemical
carrier. The HGS-100 System is for monitoring the gas concentration in the ballast tank and void space
caused by mechanical damage like crack. Continuous monitoring will occur the alarm when the gas
concentration is increased over than preset value and show the visible and audible alarm.
HGS-100 covers the max. 48 channels for cargo oil tanker. The PART1 of this system is for 1 to 40 channels
and used to monitor the gas of the ballast tanks. The PART2 is for monitoring the gas concentration of the
pump room.
Each PART uses the only one sensor. To monitor many sensing points, sequential sampling the gas through
the line will be economic scheme. Generally, in the ballast tanks, the Hydrocarbon(HC) gas is monitored. .
Infra-red type HC sensor is used for best reliability and maintenance-free. And, in the pump room, not only
the hydrocarbon, but also the Oxygen(O2), Hydrogen sulfide(H2S) gases are monitored too. Type of these
sensors are different that of Ballast tanker’s one. These are solid type sensors.
Type, number, gas-type of these sensors can be changed by user’s demand. The analog signal is converted
to digital signal by A/D converter of Analyzing board.
The microprocessor of HGS-100 system control the 2 pumps, 52 solenoid valves, filter, graphic LCD displays
the gas concentration, alarm, flow, leakage, and status of individual tanks.

1.4. Technical Data for Each Component
1.4.1. ANALYZING UNIT
A cabinet named "Analyzing Unit" includes the suction process, sampling gas detector(s) and pneumatic components
for up to 48 channels.
After suction sampling of a channel, an instrument air purge is started, in order to correct or prevent ingress of water,
moisture, condensation, dust or foreign bodies. The picture of analyzing board is following:
In case of several sampling gas detectors, the sampled gas passes through each detector one after the other, so that all
gas concentrations are measured at the same time. An additional Gas detector can easily be installed further. Each Gas
detector can be enabled or disabled at will.
1.4.2. A/D Conversion and Alarm
An electronic module supervises over the suction process, provides up to 8 analog inputs for gas detectors and flow
sensor placed either in BALLAST TANK suction process sampling(2 channels) or in PUMP ROOM suction process
sampling(4 channels). The local gas detectors are classed as additional individual channels as well as additional gas
detectors by using remained 2 channels of AD converter. The analog signal processing by the differential amplification
allows the high impedance and rejection of common-mode noise. To convert the current 4~20 mA to the voltage, the
load resistor 200[Ω] is used
That module periodically performs and saves all gas measurements. It provides a non-volatile memory for saving all
data, alarm status and operating parameters.
The Analyzing Unit provides two high or low gas concentration alarm levels on each channel and each gas (see7.4.2),
monitoring a permanent "Gas alarm" dry contact output (see 6.2):
zpre-alarm limit, to advise that a gas concentration approaches the alarm unit;
zalarm limit, with activation of another dry contact output dedicated to a horn/rotating lamp, until alarm
acknowledgement..
When some gas are without interest for some channels, the relevant alarm limits can be set at the extremities of the gas
range, in order to avoid gas concentration alarm monitoring for that gas on these channels.
The Analyzing Unit provides self-tests : sample flow, internal gas concentration, internal leakproof, detector's current
output, calibration gas flow, communication between Analyzing and Control Units, power supply. These tests monitor a
"System fault" and "Power supply" dry contact outputs.
1.4.3. Communication
This module also manages 4 digital RS485 communication ports(Generally, one for control unit. One for repeater SIL-
100. Then, only 2 ports are available for user interface. MODBUS RTU) and one RS232(for downloading or MODBUS
RTU) isolated communication port for connection to one or more remote Repeaters as described in synopsis, and/or an
external Monitoring System, using MODBUS RTU protocol. TheAnalyzing Unit operates as slave.

1.4.4 Gas detectors
The HGS-100 System uses two locations of Gas detectors : inside the Analyzing Unit, in suction process sampled Gas, and
in local areas to be controlled. Any gas detectors of Infrared, catalytic, electro-chemical or any other type, 4-20mA output,
can be connected to the Analyzing Unit.
For Gas detectors located inside the Analyzing Unit, in suction process sampled Gas: detector dedicated to
Hydrocarbon gases is Infrared type, for best reliability and maintenance-free. For Local Gas detectors: Same detectors can
be used, but installed with connection box.
zTo monitor the BALLAST TANK, infra-red type detector is used based on the principle of infra-red absorption.
The quantity of absorption of infra-red is changed by the type of the gas. Thus, the concentration can be determined by the
quantity of the gas.
zTo monitor the PUMP ROOM, solid-state type Detector was adopted.
These detectors have the built-in microprocessor and output the 4~20mA current to interface the other equipments. Here,
these current signals are converted to digital data by the A/D converter of Analyzing Board. Control Board displays those
data from the analyzing board.
1.4.5. Solenoid valves
The 8 solenoid valves are installed on the manifold. The system uses the 9 sets of manifold for total 48 channels of the
sampling points. The supply voltage and power consumption of valve is DC 24V, 4.4W. The maximum pressure is 145 psi
and 2 way type. These solenoid valves are used to connect the air line to the sampling pump sequentially by the control
signal of Control Unit.
1.4.6. flowmeter, regulation valve, filter
Sampled air by the Sampling pump will flow through the air filter to prevent the dust, water, humidity. The filter will drain
the water and dust periodically. The flowmeter shows the flowrate of suction air flows to the detector by the sampling pump.
The regulation valve controls this flowrate.
1.4.7 Analyzing Unit adjacent equipments
zBulkhead penetrations for suction process channels : the number of bulkhead penetration set is defined by the
number of bulkhead to pass through. For each channel a flame-arrestor EEx d class is placed at the limit between
safe and hazardous area, on relevant bulkhead penetration;
zShut-off valves for each channel;
zFlow-regulating valve for each channel allows to equilibrate the flow whatever is the length of the line, for best
efficiency of the system;
zBulkhead penetrations for gas exhaust and filter drain;
zShut-off valve and manometer for instrument air supply for channel purge.

1.4.8. CONTROL UNIT
A panel named "Control Unit" includes a backlighted LCD screen for measurements and alarm display, LED
indicators, buzzer/dry contact output for alarm and keyboard for System operation and configuration. The
large LCD screen increases the data availability and the man-machine interface is simplified for easy access
to functions and configuration using scrolling menus. It communicates with the Analyzing Unit using a
Modbus protocol serial link RS485, operating as master in order to get all data and status from the
Analyzing Unit, and to set any configuration change. The Control Unit is powered by 24 Vdc from the
Analyzing Unit.
One Control Unit can be incorporated in the Analyzing Unit or located in a remote box or in existing
console. One or two others can be used as repeater(s), but HGS-100 also can have identical remote
repeaters SIL-100 series by order. As the common database (gas measurements, fault status, operating
parameters) is saved in the Analyzing Unit, all Control Units display the same data. Remote repeaters SIL-
100 series display the summarized information.
