TrI-Color leD
An onboard tri-color LED is provided for indicating

faults, alarms, and calibration status. See Table 1. LED

operation for fault status is non-latching. LED operation

for alarms is configurable for latching/non-latching.

WeaTher baffle aSSeMbly
The black weather baffle is provided to prevent debris

and water from entering the optics, while allowing gas to

enter readily. An O-ring is provided on the main Eclipse

body to ensure a proper seal with the weather baffle.

The weather baffle version with hydrophobic filter is for

most outdoor and indoor applications, especially wet

and/or dirty applications. When compared to the weather

baffle version without the hydrophobic filter, it provides

optimum protection against airborne water and dirt, with

minimal reduction in speed of gas alarm response.

The weather baffle assembly is not field-serviceable,

but is easily replaceable. To remove the plastic weather

baffle from the Eclipse body, rotate it one quarter turn

counter-clockwise and pull.

The weather baffle is furnished with a calibration gas

nozzle for direct injection of gas to the sensor, allowing

the operator to apply gas to the detector without going

through the weather baffle.

NoTe

Always cover the calibration gas nozzle with the
cap during normal operation, and ensure that the
cap is not damaged.

CloCk
An hour meter is provided to give a relative indication of

time for historical logs. The meter is zeroed at the time of

manufacture and only increments while power is applied.

HART or MODBUS communication is required to view the

running hours.

hISTory loGS
All history logs are saved in non-volatile memory and

retained through power cycles. HART or MODBUS

communication is required to view the history logs.

event log (alarms and faults)
An event log saves the ten most recent alarms and a

selected group of faults with an hour meter time stamp.

HART or MODBUS communication is required to view the

log. Types of logged events include:
• Low Alarms
• High Alarms
• Optics Fault
• Warm-up
• Calibration Fault

Calibration log
A log of the ten most recent calibrations with time stamp

is saved. HART or MODBUS communication is required

to view the log. Types of calibration records include:
• Zero Only Calibration
• Complete Calibration
• Failed Calibration

Min/Max Temperature history
Ambient minimum and maximum exposed temperature

measurements are stored in non-volatile memory, and are

accessible via HART or MODBUS communication. The

measurements are time tagged with respect to total hours

of powered operation. The temperature log may be reset,

in which case all min/max exposed temperature logs are

cleared.
