OEM 4-20mA Transmitter for NDIR Gas Sensors
(Methane/Carbon dioxide)

Cirius X OEM 4-20mA Transmitter for NDIR Gas Sensors Description and Operation
The Cirius X OEM 4-20mA transmitter is an extremely flexible transmitter for NDIR gas sensors providing a robust 12 bit linear 4-20mA selectable source/sink output in response to signals from standard NDIR gas sensors. All sensor driving, signal extraction and linearisation is performed on board with calibration and configuration accessed by a menu driven sequence using 3 pushbuttons or via the RS232 port. The 2-line LCD display shows the gas concentration and units under normal operation, fault diagnostics under fault conditions and interactive text under pushbutton operation for calibration. The pushbuttons are disabled if the display is removed, enabling tamper-proof running. Sensor connections to the Cirius X are made by 3-way and 4-way crimp EH connectors, segregating the sensor supply from the signal lines. Connections for the input power and 4-20mA signal are via screw terminals and an earth spade terminal is provided along with an earth bonding pad for ease of earth connections.
