Safety Warning
Identifies potential
hazards to either
the user or the
installation.
Failure to follow this
information may result in
physical injury that in some
cases could be fatal, cause
irrevocable damage to the
instrument or damage to the
environment.
Electrical Hazard
Identifies specific
electrical hazards
to the user.
Failure to follow this
information may result in
physical injury that in some
cases could be fatal or may
cause irrevocable damage to
the instrument.
Notes
Identifies areas
where clarification
may be required.
The following manual describes the provision of data, its access and retrieval.
Should at any point you require additional help or information on the use or installation

1.3 SAFETY INFORMATION
1.4 INSTRUMENTATION SAFETY SYMBOLS
Caution
Electrical Hazard
Earth oint
Hot Surface
The STS Siloxane Monitor operates from a 110V mains supply, the instrument case
should not therefore be opened without having first isolated the power supply and disconnected
the kettle lead form the rear of the instrument. The high voltage section of the instrument is
protected by clear cover – this should not be removed unless necessary- having followed the above
instructions. FAILURE TO ISOLATE THE SU LY MAY RESULT IN ELECTRIC SHOCK.
It is the responsibility of the owner of the instrument to complete a risk assessment on its
installation, operation and servicing before being commissioned for use.
Inhalation of gases may be harmful to health, it is the responsibility of the operator to ensure they
have adequate training in the safety aspects of handling biogas/landfill gas and that they follow
appropriate procedures at all times. The vent/exhaust form the instrument must be piped to an
area designated safe to discharge to atmosphere- a flame arrestor may be required to be fitted.
Installation and Maintenance of the unit should only be carried out by suitably trained personnel
according to the applicable code of practice.
Maintenance should be carried out only using STS approved replacement parts and components –
use of substitutes will invalidate the warranty and may be hazardous to both operator and
instrument.
No alterations should be made to the instrument or its ancillary components.
Failure to comply with the instructions in this manual could result in injury to the user.
The instrument captures fuel gas any work associated with the instrument must be carried out by a
class of person competent and certified to do so.

2.0 DATA OUT UT
2.1 KEY FEATURES
There are several methods for outputting data from the Siloxane Monitor:
4-20mA data lines
rovided for the transfer of data to a 3
rd
party system.
Remote Data access
A data service accessible from any internet connection where individual or groups of monitors can
be viewed to see current and trend data on a secure website. Email alerts to set alarm thresholds
may be configured and data downloaded as CSV files.
Displayed Data
Data including the last reading and the previous 200 readings may be viewed on the screen in either
table or graphical formats.
SD Card
All data is written to the SD card accessible from the front panel for download to pc
3.0 DATA HARDWARE
3.1 4-20MA DATA LINES
Data can be outputted from the Monitor using a 4-20mA output. This is an analogue output and
requires setup on the customer’s receiver.
This 4-20mA output uses an eight-way circular connector is provided at the rear of the monitor, for
16bit 4-20mV data output. The connector is colour coded BLUE, with a label: DATA COMMS.
The 4-20mA output is powered, requiring three lines:
Vin = 12- 24V
Iout = Current output.
Gnd = 0V in relation to Vin.
There are four separate 4-20mA output lines on this connector. The pin outs for this Rear BLUE
Connector are:

These four 4-20mA transmitters are assigned to the following:
T1 = Sample feed 1
T2 = Sample feed 2
T3 = Sample feed 3
T4 = Error (Active low)
The transmitter is unpowered and requires a voltage in of 12-24V.
The sample feeds are controlled by the siloxane monitor, switching valves inside the kiosk. If no
such valves are used, only Sample feed 1 is active.
Once powered the instrument will set all T lines low, including T4. This is to indicate that the
monitor is not currently logging. Only once the monitor starts it’s logging cycle does the T4 Error
line, go high.
The conversion from mA to mg/m3 is as follows:
Concentration(mg/m3) = ( Iout – 4 ) ∗ (ConcMax – ConcMin)
16 ൨ + ConcMin
Where Iout is the measured current. ConcMax and ConcMin are the upper and lower limit ranges of
the concentration. This is set internally in the instrument. Typically set at 0mg/m3 to 100mg/m3.
3.2 REMOTE DATA
3.2.1 REMOTE DATA CONNECTION
A GSM communications box, connected via the 4-20mA output can be used to upload the lastest
reading data to a secure web account. This allows for remote viewing of the data.
Connecting to the rear BLUE data communications connector as follows:

The data communications box can either be powered via the 12 way connector at 24V or via a
alternative U S supply at 110/240V.
The data communications unit contains a multi carrier Sim card for transmission of data to the 3
rd
party hosted web site. The site is accessed using a set user name and password allowing access
only to that user’s data.
User accounts are managed and access rights granted by STS on approval of the monitor owner.
