Zirconia Sensors operate at moderately

elevated temperatures and can cause
minor discomfort if held in contact with
fingers or hands for a number of
seconds.
Before turning on power to the Analyser

and Sensor, ensure that the voltage is
correct. See the specification section of
this manual for details.
The DIN Rail Mounting Microx Analyser module

and Sensor operate with an Extra Low Voltage
power source.(ELV)
No special personnel protective measures are
necessary but it must be ensured that the user
connects a suitable power source to the Microx
Analyser within the voltage range specified for
this product.
The Panel and Wall mount versions can be

mains powered (110-240VAC) option at time of
order.
The user should ensure that any installation and
wiring and upstream protective devices are
provided in line with the appropriate regulatory
requirements.

1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Microx Module
The MICROX Module has been designed to allow OEM’S (Original Equipment
Manufacturers) to use the module within their own equipment. Typically, the
DIN and Panel Mount Microx Analyser would be mounted within a control
panel with the sensor connected to the process sample point either within the
panel or external to the panel. The Wall Mount version is suitable for mounting
in the operational location without further mechanical protection, following a
suitable risk survey being undertaken by the user.
Key design features are:

• Compact enclosure
• Simple keypad calibration facility (utilising onboard LCD display).
• 4-20mA current source output for gas level indication (10-bit
resolution).
• Input voltage range, 24VDC Nominal
or 110-240 VAC. (Panel and Wall mount versions)
• PCB mounted screw terminals for all connections.
• RS232 output for transmission of live data to a PC.
3.1 Operation
When power is first applied to the Microx module an initialisation procedure is

performed as follows:
• All the display segments are displayed
• The software version number is displayed
• The company name is displayed
• The sensor type is displayed
• The display then shows the gas level.
The module is now operational

3.7 Analogue Output
The analogue output provides a means of indicating to external equipment

(e.g. data loggers, remote displays) the gas levels currently being detected by
the system. The output is that of a Current Source (4-20mA), where 4mA
represents zero gas and 20mA represents gas at the sensor FSD.

4 SOFTWARE FEATURES
The menu system featured within the Microx module allows all calibration and
configuration activities to be performed.
Note: It is important that that the Microx module is correctly configured

for the sensor in use, prior to performing any feature available in
the menu system.
20.9
A B C D
The keypad has the following functionality:
Button Function Alternate Function
A Menu Open/Close
B Enter Numerical value 1
C Next (Increment) Numerical value 2
D Previous (Decrement) Numerical value 3
4.1 Password
The Microx module uses a password system to restrict the end user from
carrying out certain changes that may compromise the use of the equipment.
The Password feature may be Enabled or disabled.
Menu access is organised in three levels, 1, 2 and 3.
Each of the three menu levels allows access to specific menu options within
the menu system.
When a particular menu level is accessed, the user has 10 seconds to enter a
specific menu within that level otherwise the menu level is automatically
exited. Once a menu is entered, the user then has a duration of 10 minutes
within that menu to make adjustments. When the adjustment is made, the
menu is exited to save the adjusted setting to the analyser memory.

The menu structure and Password system is explained on the following

pages.

• Using the NEXT and PREVIOUS buttons select menu option:
E:1
• Press ENTER.
• Apply a known concentration of gas (applicable to sensor type)
at a flow rate of between 100 to 500 ml/m. Allow time for the
sensor to respond. (see diagram on page 8)
• Using the INC and DEC buttons set the reading to that of the
calibration gas level.
• Press ENTER to span the sensor, ‘– – – –‘will be displayed to
confirm the sensor span has been performed.
Note: Pressing the MENU button rather than the ENTER
button exits the span feature without performing the
calibration.
Wait until the reading is stable, if not press the ENTER
button to span the sensor.
• Press the MENU button to close the menu system.
Note: The sensor span setting will be displayed ( as a
percentage value) on exit while the MENU key is pressed.

value set via “New Sensor Data” in menu E:14. See note
below.
• Turn off and disconnect the calibration gas.
*E:9-Password protected, Factory only; **E:10-visibilty according to sensor type.
Note: On each occasion that a new sensor is connected and calibrated the
“New Sensor Data” should be set via the procedure in menu 14. The
setting should only be carried out after the calibration and not before.
This will ensure that subsequent span setting figures displayed on exit
of menu 1 will be valid.
Important!

Analyser.
4.2.10 Menu 10 – Zero offset
For ppm configured modules a “Sensor Zero Offset” value will need to
be entered or re-entered each time the ppm sensor is replaced. The
appropriate value will be marked on the ppm sensor and this figure will
need to be programmed in to the module. A zero offset figure allows
accurate calibration of ppm sensors that do not give a zero output for
zero gas.
The zero offset value is expressed in PPM oxygen and takes a value
of between -10.0 and +10.0 ppm.

This option is used to allow the user to adjust the sensor gain for optimal
performance. Care should be taken when using this option, which is normally
only used when a new sensor is fitted.
Warning
Customer adjustment of this setting is not recommended. The module
will be factory set prior to shipment at a value appropriate to the sensor
type fitted. Otherwise changing this value may limit the performance
and, in extreme cases, the instrument may no longer detect gas.

4.2.16 Menu 16 – Noise Rejection
Warning
The unit has a noise rejection value associated with the reading and
displaying of the measured gas level.
The noise rejection value is expressed in number of readings that

must be within approximately 20 counts of each other on the A to D
converter before the display is updated. It takes a value of between 0
and 9, where 0 is no rejection and 9 is the maximum rejection.
Setting the noise rejection results in a two second delay for fast
changing gas levels.

E:16
• Press ENTER. The display shows the Noise rejection value.
• Use the UP / DOWN keys to set the desired level.
Note each range noise rejection differs in the equivalent gas level as
follows:

5 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE & SERVICING

The Microx module will provide reliable and fault free service when given
regular maintenance and calibrations.
5.1 Routine Inspection and Maintenance
It is advisable to periodically inspect the Microx module installation:
Clean gas detector head using a clean DAMP cloth.
Inspect the sensor and ensure it is sound and the sensor-housing

aperture is not obstructed (where applicable).
The maximum time interval between routine inspections and should be

assessed by the calibrating personnel and will depend upon the environment
in which the equipment is installed.
Calibration requirements and periods vary depending on sensor type and

application. A reasonable schedule should be arrived at by the user.
Sensors utilising Zirconia Technology

These are very stable over their normal lifespan and usually do not require
regular calibrations. A check on calibration can be made at intervals to suit the
application by the user and if a calibration operation is deemed necessary,
follow the instructions contained in this manual.
Avoid exposing the Sensor to moisture or wetting particularly if the gas being
presented for measurement by the sensor contains condensable vapours or
entraned liquids. Pre-filtering and drying of the gas to be sampled may be
required by the user.
If the Sensor is not powered for any period, then condensable moisture must
be prevented from entering the sample system and reaching the sensing
element.
Other gases to avoid are halogens, organic vapours, H2S and SO4.
