1 65-2610RK-04 M2 Transmitter Operator’s Manual

Chapter 1: Introduction

Overview

This chapter briefly describes the 65-2610RK-04 M2 Transmitter. This chapter also

describes the 65-2610RK-04 M2 Transmitter Operator’s Manual (this document). Table 1 at

the end of this chapter lists the specifications for the M2.

About the M2 Transmitter

The M2 transmitter is a fixed mount, continuous-monitoring detector head. All user

adjustable parameters may be accessed using push button switches. In addition,

calibration may be performed non-intrusively by use of a magnetic wand accessory which

activates magnetic switches through a window at the front face of the detector head.

The M2 displays the current gas reading on an LCD display which is visible through the

window in the cover (front face) and provides a 4 - 20 mA signal which indicates the

target gas reading for use by a gas monitoring controller, recording device, or

programmable controller. The M2 also provides an RS-485 Modbus output. Three sets of

relay contacts, two controlled by the gas alarms and one by the fail alarm, rated at 115

VAC 5 amps are available for controlling devices such as lights or horns or for controlling

higher rated relays.

Four operating modes allow you to display and change setup and calibration settings and

change the gas type. They are Calibration Mode, Configuration Mode, Gas Type Mode,

and Modbus Mode.

About this Manual

The M2 Transmitter Operator’s Manual uses the following conventions for notes, cautions,

and warnings.

NOTE: Describes additional or critical information.

CAUTION: Describes potential damage to equipment.

WARNING: Describes potential danger that can result in injury or death.

Specifications

Table 1 lists specifications for the M2.

WARNING: When using the M2, you must follow the instructions and warnings in

this manual to assure proper and safe operation of the M2 and to

minimize the risk of personal injury. Be sure to maintain and periodically

calibrate the M2 as described in this manual.

WARNING: M2 detector heads with firmware version 5.0 or later have a different

Modbus register assignment than M2s with previous versions of

firmware. If you are adding M2s with firmware version 5.0 or later to an

existing Modbus network installation, confirm what firmware version is

installed in the M2s already in the network and if necessary, take all steps

required to address the differences in Modbus register assignments. See

“Supported Modbus Functions” on page 41 for information on the current

Modbus register assignments. The firmware version is shown on the

Information Screen described on page 17.

Chapter 2: Description

Overview

This chapter describes the components of the M2 transmitter. The transmitter is a 4 - 20

mA type detector head. It consists of the combustible gas detector, calibration adapter/

splash guard, terminal PCB, the M2 junction box, and the detector junction box. The two

junction box configuration is intended for situations where the detector needs to be

installed at an inaccessible location. The detector junction box can be installed at the

inaccessible location and the M2 junction box can be installed in a more readily accessible

area.

External Description

This section describes the junction boxes and all external components of the M2

transmitter.

65-2610RK-04 M2 Transmitter Operator’s Manual 4

M2 Junction Box

The M2’s cast aluminum junction box protects the terminal PCB and wiring connections

made to the terminal PCB. Use the top 3/4’’ conduit hub to connect wiring from the

terminal PCB to external power and/or to an external device, typically an RKI controller.

Use the bottom 3/4” conduit hub to wire the remotely installed combustible gas detector.

Use the junction box’s two mounting slots to mount the M2 to a vertical surface at the

monitoring site. The window in the cover on the front of the junction box allows you to

view the LCD display and use the magnetic wand to actuate the magnetic control

switches so you can perform non-intrusive calibration. Removing the cover allows you to

access the interior of the junction box.

Detector Junction Box

The detector junction box is intended to be installed remotely from the M2 junction box.

The combustible gas detector is factory installed in the bottom 3/4” NPT conduit hub

using a 3/4 in. x 1/2 in. NPT reducer. A terminal strip is provided for wiring connections

and the detector is factory wired to one side of this terminal strip. The other side of the

terminal strip is for user-supplied wiring to the detector terminal strip located in the M2

junction box. This wiring should go through the top 3/4” conduit hub. Three spacers

installed on the back of the junction box controls the distance of the junction box from a

mounting surface.

Combustible Gas Detector

The combustible gas detector is a catalytic type detector that produces an electrical output

that corresponds to the detection range. It is packaged in a 1/2 inch NPT nipple with a

sintered metal flame arrestor on one end allowing ambient air to diffuse into the detector.

The flame arrestor also contains any sparks which may occur within the detector. The 1/2

inch NPT mounting threads at the top of the detector allow you to mount it into the

bottom conduit hub of the junction box. The junction box conduit hub is 3/4” NPT, so a

3/4 in. x 1/2 in. NPT reducer is used to install the combustible gas detector. A rainshield

screws onto the bottom of the detector (flame arrestor end). The rainshield helps protect

the detector from rain and debris in the monitoring environment. Four color-coded leads

extend from the top of the detector. The leads allow you to connect the detector to the

terminal strip.

Calibration Adapter/Splash Guard

A calibration adapter/splash guard is installed on the combustible gas detector. A fitting

at the bottom of the calibration adapter/splash guard allows a length of tubing to be

connected for calibration and routed to a more easily accessible location (near the M2

junction box is optimal for ease of calibration). The calibration adapter/splash guard also

protects the detector from splashing water or direct water spray.

Magnetic Wand

The magnetic wand is a short plastic rod with a magnet in one end. It is used to actuate

the magnetic control switches on the control PCB while the junction box cover is still

installed so that non-intrusive calibration can be performed.

Internal Description

This section describes the internal components of the M2. The internal components of the

M2 include the terminal PCB which provides for all the wiring connections to the M2 and

the control PCB which displays the gas reading and has the control buttons.

Figure 2: M2 Internal Components

Terminal PCB

The terminal PCB is encapsulated in epoxy for protection against moisture and physical

damage. It is mounted into the rear of the junction box with three standoffs and rests on a

thin layer of foam. A banana jack is screwed into each of the standoffs and used for

mounting the control PCB. The terminal PCB converts the electrical output from the

detector to a signal which can be displayed by the LCD display, a 4 - 20 mA signal (that is

proportional to the detection range), and an RS-485 Modbus output signal. The 4 - 20 mA

signal may be used by a recording device, gas monitor controller, or programmable

controller. The Modbus output may be used to connect the M2 to a Modbus network. The

terminal PCB also controls three relays, one fail and two gas alarm relays.

Two columns of plug-in style terminal strips are used to make all wiring connections to

the M2. The column on the left consists of the power/signal, detector, and Modbus

terminal strips. The column on the right consists of the relay terminal strips. A 20 position

connector at the bottom of the terminal PCB is used to connect the terminal PCB to the
