Model S4000TH

Intelligent Sensor for H2S Gas Detection

Features & Benefits

• Event logging stores fault, gas check, calibration, and alarm event history
• Industry standard 4-20mA output for remote alarm and fault indication
• HART and Modbus communication provides complete status and control capability in the control room
• Detection ranges (0-20 ppm, 0-50 ppm, 0-100 ppm) allow wide range of applications
• Warning, alarm & fault relays provide local alarm capability
• Calibration, calibration check, and set-up mode simplify operation and maintenance
• Remaining sensor life indication reduces downtime

Description
The S4000TH Intelligent Sensor is a microprocessor-based eight fault codes. The S4000TH has four different operating modes.

Semiconductor (MOS) sensor. This unit features one person the display and 4-20 mA readings are proportional to the gas
calibration and can virtually self-calibrate by simply activating a concentration at the sensor. Second, the gas check mode that

All of the S4000TH electronics are contained within an explosion- which allows the user to review or change setup options such as

S4000TH includes warning, alarm and fault relay contacts that can
be used to indicate an alarm or fault condition, and dual redundant Options

Modbus and HART are available to meet many needs. • Gas Sensor Range (0-20 ppm, 0-50 ppm, 0-100 ppm)
• Energized/de-energized relays
The S4000TH includes a three (3) digit LED display. This local digital
display continuously indicates gas concentrations during normal • Latching/non-latching relays
operation and in the calibration check mode, calibration prompts • Alarm setpoints for relays
during calibration mode, display codes during the setup mode and • Baud rate, data format, and address for each Modbus channel
