Combustible・Toxic Gas Detector HeadGD-D58・AC・GH
GD-D58・DC・GH
Operating Manual

Operating Precautions
This detector is a gas detector that detects combustible/toxic gases in the air and triggers a gas alarm.
The gas detector is a safety unit, not an analyzer or densitometer which performs quantitative/qualitative
analysis/measurement for gases.
Please fully understand the following points before using it, so that it can be used properly.
1.

This detector may be interfered by gases and vapors other than the gas to be detected.
Please note that the alarm may be triggered by interference. In addition, it may be fluctuated byenvironmental (temperature, humidity, etc.) changes in the installation site.

2.

The alarm must be set within a range where the performance of the detector can be ensured.
In facilities compliant with the High Pressure Gas Safety Act, an alarm setting below our standard
alarm setpoint may trigger a false alarm.

3.

This is a safety unit, not a control unit.
The alarm contact output of the detector must be used for an external alarm lamp/buzzer, while thealarm signal output must be used for an indicator or external recorder.
If these outputs are used to control other units, we shall not be responsible for any malfunctions.

4.

The gas sensing part of the gas detection sensor installed in this detector is made of metal porous
sintered alloy permeated with an oxidation catalyst.
If silicon or sulfide compounds are accumulated on the surface of porous sintered alloy, the area of thegas sensing part becomes smaller, which may results in serious deterioration of its sensitivity.
For safety reasons, do not use the detector under the presence of silicon or sulfide compounds eventhough their amount is very small.

5.

For maintenance of the detector, it must go through a regular maintenance, including replacement andadjustment of the regular replacement parts as specified in the operating manual. In addition, because
this is a safety unit, it is recommended that a regular maintenance and a gas calibration are performed
every six months in accordance with the regulations.

Outline of the Product1-1. Preface
Thank you for choosing our fixed-type combustible/toxic gas detector head GD-D58 series. Please checkthat the model number of the product you purchased is included in the specifications on this manual.
This manual explains how to use the detector head and its specifications. It contains information required
for using the detector head properly. Not only the first-time users but also the users who have already used
the product must read and understand the operating manual to enhance the knowledge and experience
before using the detector head.
Note that the detector head cannot be used by itself. Be sure to use it in combination with the dedicatedindicator/alarm unit. Read also the operating manual of the indicator/alarm unit.

1-2. Purpose of use
 This detector head is a fixed type gas detector head which detects combustible/toxic gases.
 Use this detector head in combination with an indicator/alarm unit that indicates a gas concentrationand triggers an alarm.
The detector head detects combustible/toxic gases and outputs voltages according to gas
concentrations. The indicator/alarm unit both indicates a gas concentration and, if a preset
concentration level is exceeded, triggers an alarm.
 The detector head is a safety unit, not an analyzer or densitometer which performs
quantitative/qualitative analysis/measurement for gases. Please fully understand the features of thedetector head before using it, so that it can be used properly.
 The detector head draws air with the built-in pump and detects abnormalities in the air caused bypresence of gases or other reasons (leak) with the built-in gas sensor.
 The detector head has a built-in low flow rate detection function and can trigger a fault alarm when theflow rate inside the tubing drops below a fixed rate.
 The detector head has two types of power supply specifications.

4-3. Precautions for system designing

Introducing protective measures against lightning
If cables are installed outside the factory/plant, or if internal cables are installed in the same duct as thecables coming from outside the factory/plant, "lightning" will cause problems. Because lightning acts as alarge emission source while cables act as a receiving antenna, devices connected to the cables may bedamaged.
Lightning cannot be prevented. Cables installed in a metal conduit or under the ground cannot becompletely protected from inductive lightning surge caused by lightning. Although complete elimination ofdisasters caused by lightning is impossible, the following protective measures can be taken.
Take appropriate measures in accordance with the importance of the facilities andthe environment.
 Provide protection by a lightning arrester (cable arrester).
Protection against(Although inductive lightning surge can be transmitted through the cable, it islightning
prevented by installing a lightning arrester before the field devices and central
processing equipment. For information on how to use a lightning arrester,
please contact the manufacturer.）
In addition to lightning, there are more sources of surge noise. To protect units from
Groundingthese noise sources, the units must be grounded.
* The lightning arrester has a circuit to remove a surge voltage which damages field devices, so thatsignals may be attenuated. Before installing a lightning arrester, verify that it works properly.

Alarm Activation
A fault alarm is triggered when the detector head detects abnormalities. After a fault alarm is triggered, thefault lamp (yellow) lights up and an error message is displayed on the LED. Determine the causes and takeappropriate actions.
After the detector head is successfully returned from the fault, it restarts with the process normally
performed right after it is turned on (initial clear).
If the detector head has problems and is repeatedly malfunctioning, contact RIKEN KEIKI immediately.

<Low Flow Rate Abnormal Operations>This alarm is triggered when the output value of the low flow sensor drops below the alarm setpoint.
The alarm is auto-reset when the flow rate exceeds a certain level.

Definition of Terms
Semiconductor

This is a principle of the sensor installed in the detector.
See "10-2. Detection principle" for details.

Initial clear

Output from the detector head fluctuates for a while after turning on the power.
This is a function to prevent triggering alarm during that time.

ppm
Calibration

GD-D58 Series

Maximum value of the detection range.
A unit which the lower explosive limit (LEL) of the combustible gas to be detected
is set to 100.
A concentration unit that means part per million of the combustible gas to be
detected.
Adjusts the readings to the calibration gas concentration value by using thecalibration gas.
