Detcon IR-622 - Manual (Page 22)

Bad 4-20 mA output or RS485 Output
1. Check that wiring is connected to correct terminal outputs.
2. Swap with a known-good transmitter to determine if transmitter is faulty
Unstable output/Sudden Spiking/Nuisance Alarms
1. Check condulet for accumulated water.
2. Check transmitter and Terminal PCB for abnormal corrosion.
3. Determine if problem correlates with condensation cycles.
4. Add/change Detcon condensation prevention packet.
5. Check for unstable power supply.
6. Check for inadequate grounding.
7. If correlates with radio communications then use Detcon RFI filter accessory.
8. Contact Detcon for assistance in optimizing shielding, grounding, and RFI protection.
Excessive Span Drift or Slow Response
1. Verify correct cal gas flow rate and proper use of the cal gas adapter.
2. Check validity of cal gas via the expiration date and use pull tube if necessary.
3. Check for obstructions through s/s sinter element (including being wet).
4. Replace plug-in sensor if Optics Life is <25%.
Drifting Zero
It may be the correct reading if there are real gas leaks or the sensor was zero calibrated when actual gas was present and subse-
quently cleared.
1. Recalibrate zero using target gas “free” sample.
2. Replace plug-in sensor if Optics Life is <25%.
