Detector Placement

 Open path detectors should be installed based on several considerations: – – Hazard conditions within the installation area covered Ventilation rates, direction, and presence of recirculation and dead zones – – Sensitivity to low (geometric) sunlight, fog, and reflections Powerful sources of electromagnetic emissions like high powered electrical towers – Structures that may interfere with line of sight * Health and Safety Executive, Offshore Division,” Fire and Explosion Strategy, Issue 1,” 2004.

Installation

 When installing an ULTIMA OPIR-5 detector, it is useful to consider the following: – – – – Vibration can create issues Solid foundation improves alignment integrity The longer the line of sight path, the more solid the foundation required Maintain a 6” to 12” radius around the line of site beam to avoid reflective interference from piping and supports – – For outdoor installations, consider maximum snow levels Good immunity to fog, steam, and rain but immunity degrades over longer distances – – Avoid pedestrian traffic or overhead cranes Keep beam low and down wind for heavy gases like propane and high for light gases like methane

Split Concentration Range

 With the split range function, users can monitor the entire span of gas concentration with a single analog signal – Reduces wiring and commissioning costs

5,000 ppm-m (0.1 LEL•m) 5 LEL•m 0 4 12 AO (mA) 20

Alignment

 Simple alignment process – Arm or base mounts available  Display – – Menus activated by magnet Enables easy alignment, setup & diagnostics

Maintenance

 As with other combustible sensors, the ULTIMA OPIR-5 should be included in the plant maintenance schedule* – Gas check frequency depends on operating conditions (ex. dusty, corrosive, or damp environment) – Before repair or maintenance, the gas detector should be removed to a safe place outside the area being protected  If the hazard is still potentially present, it will be necessary to use a replacement gas detector in the area until the original detector is reinstated * BS EN 50073:1999 “Guide for the selection, installation, use and maintenance of apparatus for the detection and measurement of combustible gases or oxygen.”

Diagnostics

 The ULTIMA OPIR-5 has self-diagnostics that inform users when certain types of device failures have occurred Fault Code

HART



The ULTIMA OPIR-5 is available with HART for better efficiency with remote communication

– Only the primary scale, LEL

•

m or split range, connects through HART 

Benefits of the HART-equipped ULTIMA OPIR-5:

– – Better diagnostics of problems Improved management of maintenance history and event logging – – Flexible and accurate digital transmission Effective cost control of devices in the field – Installation savings due to fewer wires

HART – Analog Signal for Faults

Because HART requires a minimum current for operation, the ULTIMA OPIR 5’s fault conditions use 3.5 mA as minimum analog output

AMS Device Manager

 Asset management and process improvement – Check compliance to calibration schedule – Coordinate calibrations so as to reduce labor cost – Aggregate calibration to a control room – – Track gas level remotely Read fault conditions from control room; before sending technician to the field

Applications

 Area monitoring where there is a clear line of sight – – – – Perimeters Processing modules Process segregation Tunnels

Offshore Oil and Gas

    Drilling and production operations Separation Compression HVAC inlets

Pipeline and Storage Operations

   Compressor stations Valve manifolds Tank farms

   Bus Garages Train Stations Tunnels

HVAC and Wastewater

Sales Strategies

 The ULTIMA OPIR-5 is a product with all time firsts: – First and only open path detector to meet agency performance requirements on

both

LEL and ppm scales – First among major open path models to be certified to FM Approvals, EN, and IECEx performance standards – First to offer split range scale for ppm-m and LEL-m monitoring – First to be certified for operation at -55  C

Sales Strategies (Continued)

 No tools required for alignment at any range – It is possible to align the open path detector without a scope at 100 m or more  Integral display – Reduces installation time and total cost to own

Conclusion

 The Ultima OPIR-5 compares well with other open path detectors in the market • • • Repeatability Linearity Operating temperature range

Conclusion (Continued)

 The instrument’s dual concentration range and integral display are differentiators – No other detector offers a performance-certified dual range – Most commercial models require a handheld or controller to read gas concentrations or perform maintenance  The Ultima OPIR-5 open path detector is well positioned to meet users’ demands for enhanced safety and longevity
