H2-CNI 4-20mA-I

Features:

  • Accurate detection of hydrogen levels up to 100% LEL with 100 ppm resolution in air
  • Negligible sensitivity against typical catalyst poisons such as volatile siloxanes and carbon monoxide
  • Fast response and recovery times
  • Negligible humidity-induced base line drift
  • Applicable in relative humidity (rh) between 0 % to 100 %
  • Industrial temperature range -40 °C to +80 °C
  • Linear output up to 100 % LEL
  • Available with ultra-low thermal drift (ULTD) and test protocol
  • 4-20 mA current-loop transmitter with reverse voltage operation and over-voltage surge protection
  • Supply voltage with reversed bias protection 
  • Designed for many years of operation time

H2-CNI 4-20mA-I and H2-CNI 4-20mA-I ULTD are four-pin calorimetric hydrogen sensors with a catalytically highly active and siloxaneresistant sensor element and is based on a non isothermal calorimetric operation principle. The sensor contains on-board electronics to reduce the effect of ambient temperature changes on hydrogen sensitivity, featuring a secure 4-20 mA current interface. It is designed for use in a variety of applications which require accurate hydrogen determination in air. The sensor can be operated without connecting the I2C bus. 

Pin 1     +12 V positive supply voltage with respect to ground 

Pin 2     Current output connect to 0 V of the current loop 

Pin 3     Ground of the internal electronics. The pin is electrically not connected to the housing     

Pin 4     Current input connect to +24 V of the current loop*

SCL      Clock line of the I2C bus**

SDA      Data line of the I2C bus** 


* The current loop must be galvanically decoupled from the 12 V supply voltage. No common mass is allowed. The current loop must contain a driving voltage source (recommended value: +24 V). 

**If connected, provide necessary pull-up resistors to SCL and SDA (e.g. 4.7 kOhm).
