pulmonary edema. Long-term, low-level exposure results

in fatigue, loss of appetite, headache, poor memory,

irritability, and dizziness. Exposure to high levels can

induce immediate collapse, with loss of breathing and a

Product description

E2638 series detectors-transmitters belong to the PluraSens® family of multifunctional         

measurement instruments. The instruments utilize gas sensors of various types with          

excellent repeatability, stability, and long lifetime.

E2638 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,

●Acoustic (85 dB buzzer) and visual (red and green LED) signaling,

●24 VAC or 230 VAC as options for power supply module,

●LCD indicator,

●Remote probe.

The version of your device 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.

External circuits connected to the equipment should have sufficient insulation rating          

according to the environmental conditions and equipment power.

A disconnecting device that is marked as such and easily accessible should be included in              

Operating conditions

The device should be used both in a non-hazardous area and in a basic electromagnetic              

environment, where the latter is defined in EN 61326-1. Avoid strong mechanical shock and             

vibrations. Avoid corrosive atmosphere and areas highly contaminated with dust, oil mist,           

etc. Keep the instrument away from direct sunlight. A sudden temperature or humidity            

change might affect the sensitivity of the sensor.

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 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.

For installing the device, attach the device to the wall using provided screws through the              

Sensor probe handling

The E2638 series devices are available with a remote probe. The remote probe is             

connected to the main unit with a shielded cable. The default remote probe cable length is               



A) Wall mount remote probe with fixing clamp (default version),

B) Remote probe with rubber flange and three self-tapping screws (on request)



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 (or the remote probe),

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.
