TLHOKOMELISO: Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in serious injury, property damage, or inaccurate readings.

• Installation and maintenance should only be performed by qualified personnel in accordance with local electrical codes and safety regulations.
• Ensure power is disconnected before performing any installation, wiring, or maintenance procedures.
• Do not modify the detector in any way. Unauthorized modifications will void the warranty and may compromise safety.
• The detector is designed for specific gas detection (SO2). Do not use it for detecting other gases.
• Regular calibration is essential to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the detector. Refer to the maintenance section for details.
• In case of an alarm, follow established safety protocols for the detected gas.
• Protect the detector from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, excessive vibration, and corrosive substances.

Proper installation is critical for the detector's performance and safety. Consult with a qualified electrician or installation professional.

5.1 Choosing an Installation Location:

• Install the detector in an area where SO2 gas is most likely to accumulate. SO2 is heavier than air, so consider installing it closer to the floor or potential leak sources.
• Avoid locations with strong air currents (e.g., near ventilation outlets, windows, doors) that might dilute gas concentrations.
• Ensure the location is free from excessive vibration, direct heat sources, or corrosive chemicals.
• Allow sufficient space around the detector for maintenance and calibration.

5.2 Mounting the Detector:

• Use appropriate screws and anchors to securely mount the detector to a solid surface. The housing has mounting holes for this purpose.
• Ensure the detector is mounted vertically with the sensor pointing downwards for optimal performance and drainage.

5.3 Litaelo tsa ho Wiring:

• Disconnect all power before wiring.
• Connect the DC 24V power supply to the designated power terminals inside the wiring compartment. Observe polarity.
• Connect the 4-20mA signal output wires to your control system (PLC, DCS, etc.). Refer to your control system's manual for input wiring.

• Use appropriate cable glands to maintain the explosion-proof integrity of the enclosure.

5.4 Initial Power-Up:

• After completing all wiring and mounting, apply power to the detector.
• The detector will undergo a self-test and warm-up period (typically a few minutes). During this time, the display may show a countdown or
