If the replacement module is a receiver and is
used in an eQP system, it will have Lon address
switches that must be set. Set the switches on
the new module the same as the switches on
the module being replaced

before installing the

module into the bulkhead.

5. Line up the two pins on the replacement module with

the two holes in the bulkhead and insert the module

straight into the bulkhead. See Figure 24.

6. Insert and tighten the four flange bolts in an

opposing consecutive order in two stages — first

partially tighten all four bolts equally, and then

fully tighten each bolt in an opposing order to 40

inch-pounds (4.5 Nm) of torque. Bolts are M6 per

ISO 965 with M5 head, SST with a yield stress of 448

N/mm

2

(65.00 PSI) minimum.

CaUtIon

Flange bolts are critical to maintaining the
flameproof properties of the oPeCL. If
replacement flange bolts are needed, DeC spare
part number 007167‑001 must be used in order to
maintain the integrity of the enclosure. The use of
any other bolts will void the ex d certification of the
oPeCL.

7. When all equipment has been properly installed,

ensure that system alarms are appropriately

bypassed and apply power to the system.

8. Perform the alignment procedure as previously

described in this manual.

Important

If the oPeCL module had an aperture installed,
install the aperture before performing the
alignment procedure (install apertures on the

transmitter, not on the receiver). If the separation
distance is between 5 and 30 meters and signal
saturation is indicated after completion of the
Basic Alignment procedure, an aperture will
be required (even if no aperture was originally
installed). Refer to the "Aperture Kit for Short
Range Applications" section in this manual for
complete information regarding apertures.

9. Perform a zero calibration of the detector.

10. Upon completion of zero calibration, verify proper

operation by performing an “optical test film

test” and also a “beam block test” as previously

described in this manual.

noTe

Replacement receiver modules are furnished from
the factory with default configuration settings. If
the oPeCL system has had any configuration
changes in the field, the new receiver will require
changes to configuration parameters using a
HART communicator or a FlexVu UD10 display unit
(use S3 software for eQP models).

11. Restore system alarms (remove bypass).

dEvicE REpaiR and REtuRn

The Open Path Eclipse IR Hydrocarbon Gas Detector

is not designed to be repaired in the field. If a problem

should develop, first carefully check for proper wiring,

programming and calibration. If it is determined that the

problem is caused by an electronic failure, the device

must be returned to the factory for repair.

Prior to returning devices, contact the nearest local

Detector Electronics office so that a Return Material

Identification (RMI) number can be assigned. a

written statement describing the malfunction must
accompany the returned device or component to
assist and expedite finding the root cause of the
failure.

Pack the unit properly. Always use sufficient packing

material. Where applicable, use an antistatic bag as

protection from electrostatic discharge.

noTe

Inadequate packaging that ultimately causes
damage to the returned device during shipment
will result in a service charge to repair the damage
incurred during shipment.

Return all equipment transportation prepaid to the

factory in Minneapolis.
