EMC Considerations
Your Honeywell Analytics continuous gas monitor has been designed to comply with
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards applicable at the time of its manufacturing. The
design includes filtering, shielding and bypassing techniques. At the time of certification,
simulated customer Input/ Output (I/O) schemes were tested.
All methods used in your equipment for emission suppression and reduction of susceptibility
are interactive. Modifications to the monitor could result in increased emissions and higher
vulnerability to other radiated fields.
Following the guidelines in this EMC Considerations section will ensure your monitor maintains
the enhanced degree of EMC integrity. The guidelines listed apply only to I/O emissions and do
not apply to A.C. and D.C. monitor power connections.
FCC Compliance Statement
CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved could void your authority to use this
equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Industry Canada Statement
This device complies with Industry Canada licence- exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the
device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio
exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l’appareil ne
doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage
radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le
fonctionnement.

Cabling
Braid Must have a minimum 65% coverage
Foil When used with braid, provides 100% coverage.
Do not use foil alone. It has a tendency to break.
Stranded
Pair Provides the greatest surface area
Shield
Termination
Continuation of the shield to the cabinet earth ground is most
important.
For discrete wire terminations, pigtails to the cabinet (connector)
ground should be extremely short (no greater than three inches).
For multiconductor connector terminations, only 360° shielded
shells should be used.
Note: Honeywell Analytics product testing uses >65% braid with foil (around the bundle); twisted
pair; stranded 24 AWG (minimum wiring for all qualification and certification testing.)
Vertex Edge System 8 User Manual

Connectors
Failure to properly secure the connector to the equipment will result in high emission levels.
Also, poorly constructed or improperly assembled connectors can be a high source of radiated
noise and provide a path for external signals into the monitor.
Ethernet cables longer than 30M need to be shielded. Ethernet cables less than 30M can be
unshielded.

CHAPTER
2Introduction
System Overview
The Honeywell Vertex™ Edge System continuously monitors up to 72 remote locations for toxic
gases. It responds to gases that exceed programmed levels by:
lTriggering alarms and opening event windows to warn operators of high concentrations;
lDisplaying the location, gas type and gas concentration; and
lStoring the alarm information in a database.
The Vertex Edge System provides fast response to a wide range of gases. Each location may be up
to 400 ft (122 m) from the Vertex Edge System. The system uses one or more of Honeywell
Analytics’ Chemcassette® analyzers to provide a monitoring system tailored to meet the
requirements of the facility.
The Vertex Edge System incorporates a range of redundant and protective features for maximum
uptime:
lPumps are redundant;
lThe system powers up in the same state as when powered down;
lA single analyzer can exit monitoring when replacing filters, Chemcassettes, and significant
components without impacting the other analyzers.
Operation can be through an LCD touch screen or through a local area network (LAN).

Analyzer Modules
The Vertex Edge System is populated with up to nine universal analyzer modules. Modules are
installed in slots on one of three tiers. Each tier includes three slots for a total of nine slots in a
Vertex Edge System. Analyzer modules occupy one slot each.

Sampling System
Each Analyzer module is a monitoring center for sampling lines from sample locations. As they
apply to the Vertex Edge System, the words point, line and location require definition:
• A location is a place to be monitored
• Sample atmosphere runs from the location to the Vertex Edge System via a line
• Each of the 72 sample tubing connections on the Vertex Edge System corresponds to a point.
A sample line can be connected directly to a single point or multiple points.
The system draws air simultaneously from all locations. Two different types of flow are:
• Transport flow: high-velocity, large-volume air movement through the lines
• Sample flow: air admitted to the Chemcassette® detection system
The high speed of transport flow allows rapid monitoring and response time when using long
lines from monitored locations to the Vertex Edge System. A small portion of the transport flow
(sample flow) is analyzed to determine concentration levels.
The complete sampling and monitoring system consists of the following components:
• Sample lines to all monitored locations
• Flow connections through quick-connect ports in bulkheads on top of unit
• Moving cable and connectors
• Vacuum pumps
