With the cover removed, the cartridge (069006) can now be fitted to the detector. Ensure that there is no protective cover over the sensor head and that the side clips are unclipped by pulling outwards.

Fit the cartridge into the holder as shown above. Once it is in position the clips can be used to secure the cartridge to the detector.

Fit the 1.5m of ¼” OD x3�16” THK tubing provided to the detector’s EXHAUST port. It is recommended that this is then connected to a fume hood or other extraction device.

Next fit part of the ¼” OD x ⅛” THK tubing from the fittings kit to the INPUT port.

11.

12.

Next fit part of the Tygon tubing to the ¼” OD x ⅛” THK tubing, using one of the ¼” Barbed Fittings and Hose clip provided. Now attach the In Line filter to the Tygon tubing. Reverse the connection process to connect the filter to the instrument.

18.

Now check that the display shows a concentration of 0.

It is recommended that the detector is wall mounted above the height of the instrument inlet. This can be done using the bracket supplied. We advise the use of M4 screws and wall plugs (not supplied).

19.

20.

The detector can now be lowered down onto the bracket. The wall mounting has been specially designed to allow greater serviceability by enabling the unit to be taken down off of the wall for service and maintenance work to be carried out, without having to remove the wall bracket.

Your PEAK SCIENTIFIC Hydrogen Detector is now fully installed, operational and ready to sample gas from your instrument.

Connecting the H2 Detector to the GC Oven
1. First remove the plastic cover on the top of the GC.

2. Locate the cut-out hole on the aluminium plate directly above the rear hole on the GC oven.

3. Make a hole through the insulation material, through to the oven. The stainless steel tubing from the detector can now be pushed through the hole, and secured in place using more insulation material.

4. Once the stainless steel tubing has been pushed through and secured, the end of the tubing should be aimed at the inlet of the GC column.

5. Position the end of the tubing as close to the inlet as possible, without limiting access for column changes and inlet maintenance. 6. The detector is now fully connected and will take samples continuously and both the detector and the H2 generator will sound an alarm if dangerous levels of Hydrogen are detected. The generator will then shut down. General Notes: Fault Codes In the event of a fault code being displayed after Installation has been completed, follow the corresponding troubleshooting steps to rectify. F48 – Cartridge absent – Reseat or Replace Cartridge. F49 – Cartridge wrong type – Replace cartridge or press  to accept if correct. F81 – Flow fail – Check filter, check for kinked tubing. Multiple Detectors Multiple detectors can be connected to one Precision 500/Trace. If this is desired, connect the first detectors ‘Out’ port to the second detectors ‘In’ port, as illustrated below. Please take into consideration when working with multiple Hydrogen Detector Units that a minimum required distance between units is 82mm (3.23in).

For all other technical specifications, operating instructions, service requirements, contact details and trouble shooting, please refer to the user manual contained on the CD supplied in the fittings kit. Please keep this for future reference.
