1. Safety
Ensure that this Technical Manual is read and understood BEFORE installing/ operating/ maintaining
the equipment. Pay attention to Warnings and Cautions. All document Warnings are listed here and
repeated where appropriate at the start of the relevant chapter(s) of this Technical Manual. Cautions
appear in the sections/sub-sections of the document where they apply.
WARNINGS
Sensepoint XCD is designed for installation and use in Zone 1 or 2 hazardous areas in many countries
including Europe and for Class 1 Division 1 or 2 area applications in North America.
Installation must be in accordance with the recognized standards of the appropriate authority in the
country concerned.
Access to the interior of the detector, when carrying out any work, must only be conducted by trained
personnel.
Before carrying out any work ensure local regulations and site procedures are followed. Appropriate
standards must be followed to maintain the overall certification of the detector.
For installations where conduit is used, and the sensor is mounted directly to the Sensepoint XCD,
there must be a ‘Seal Fitting’ installed for each of the cable gland entries within 18 inches of the
Sensepoint XCD. The total distance of the location of these Seal Fittings is 18 inches. (e.g. If all 3 gland
entries are to be used, 3 Seal Fittings should be located, each within 6 inches of the wiring entrance).
In order to maintain electrical safety, the product must not be operated in atmospheres with more than
21 % oxygen. Oxygen deficient atmospheres (Combustible: less than 10 % v/v, Toxic: less than 6 % v/v)
may suppress the sensor output.
If using an anti-seize compound, the threads should be thinly coated with an approved silicone free
compound e.g. petroleum jelly.
To reduce the risk of ignition of hazardous atmosphere, de-classify the area or disconnect the
equipment from the supply circuit before opening the detector enclosure. Keep assembly tightly
closed during operation.
Never attempt to open a junction box/enclosure or replace/refit the sensor in potentially hazardous
atmospheres while power is still applied to the transmitter.
The detector must be earthed/grounded for electrical safety and to limit the effects of radio frequency
interference. Earth/ground points are provided inside and outside the unit. The internal grounding shall
be used as the primary equipment ground. The external terminal is only a supplemental bonding
connection where local authorities permit or require such a connection.
Ensure that all screens/instrument earth/clean earth wiring is earthed/grounded at a single point (either
at the controller or detector - BUT NOT BOTH) to prevent false readings or alarms that may occur due
to potential earth/ground loops.
Take care when handling sensors as they may contain corrosive solutions. Do not tamper with or in
any way disassemble the sensor.
Do not expose to temperatures outside the recommended ranges.
Do not expose sensors under storage conditions to organic solvents or flammable liquids.
At the end of their working life, replacement electrochemical sensors for oxygen and toxic gas must be
disposed of in an environmentally safe manner. Disposal should be according to local waste
management requirements and environmental legislation.
Alternatively, old replaceable sensors may be securely packaged and returned to Honeywell Analytics
clearly marked for environmental disposal.
Electrochemical sensors should NOT be incinerated as this action may cause the cell to emit toxic
fumes.

This equipment is designed and constructed as to prevent ignition sources arising, even in the event
of frequent disturbances or equipment operating faults.
The sensor head must be fitted with the supplied weather protection and mounted so that the sinter is
pointing downward to provide ingress protection IPX6.
The weather protection is a potential electrostatic charging hazard. The manufacturer’s instructions
should be observed.
The transmitter has a potential electrostatic charging hazard. To minimize the risk of electrostatic
discharge:
• Ground the transmitter adequately
• Install the transmitter in a manner that will prevent accidental electrostatic discharges, e.g. ensure
that objects do not rub against the housing etc.
• Clean the enclosure with a damp cloth when necessary
The purchaser should make the manufacturer aware of any External effects or Aggressive substances
that the equipment may be exposed to.
The equipment including the flameproof joints is not intended to be repaired.
When choosing cable and cable gland or conductors in conduit, user should take into account
temperature range. Note that it should be greater than at least 90 °C.
Note: The control card must have a suitably rated fuse.

3. Introduction
The Sensepoint XCD comprises a gas detector transmitter and a choice of sensors for detecting
flammable gas, toxic gas and oxygen. The construction of Sensepoint XCD allows it to be used in
hazardous area locations; it may also be used in other areas not classified as hazardous.
The transmitter features a display and three programmable relays for controlling external equipment
e.g. alarms, sirens, valves or switches. The transmitter provides an industry standard
3-wire, 4-20 mA source or sink output for connection to a dedicated gas detection control system or
PLC.
Calibration and maintenance are carried out using a Magnetic Wand, this allows a single user to
undertake routine maintenance without needing to access internal components. Sensepoint XCD is
suitable for use in Zone 1 or 2 hazardous areas (International) or Class I Division 1 or 2 area applications
(North America).
Sensepoint XCD comprises of the main parts as shown below.

Transmitter
The transmitter enclosure has three threaded entries. The two cable/conduit entries either side of the
upper part of the transmitter housing are for connecting the power source, signal output and relay
contacts to associated signalling equipment. The bottom entry allows direct connection of the sensor
socket. There is a mounting plate incorporated into the transmitter housing allowing for various mounting
configuration options.
A local LCD provides gas type, concentration, alarm and operating status. The display provides
numerical, bar graph and icon information.
Diagnostic information may also be displayed when the transmitter is interrogated using a magnet. The
transmitter cover has a glass window which allows use of the Magnetic Wand to activate the three-user
interface magnetic switches that are located on the front of the display module. The magnet also enables
a non-intrusive, one-man calibration and configuration facility for the Sensepoint XCD Flammable, Toxic
and Oxygen Gas sensors
The Sensepoint XCD transmitter is designed to work with a variety of gas sensors for detecting
flammable gases. Sensepoint XCD sensors use NDIR infrared and electro-catalytic technologies.
In addition, the Sensepoint XCD transmitter is designed to work with a wide range of toxic gas
sensors. Sensepoint XCD sensors for monitoring toxic gas or oxygen use electro-chemical cell
(ECC) technology. Oxygen sensors measure Oxygen deficiency and enrichment in the range
0 – 25 % v/v. They do not measure inertisation.

Options
3.3.1. Modbus®
Note: Modbus® option is NOT tested as part of the performance approvals.
The optional Modbus® interface is one of the most common field buses in the industry and allows the
Sensepoint XCD to connect to a bus of devices and transmit data to PLCs or controllers (see Appendix
A). Connections to the Sensepoint XCD are made through a pluggable terminal block on the Modbus ®
interface circuit board. Modbus® RTU protocol uses ASCII/Hex protocols for communication. and allows
all transmitter/sensor front panel functions to be transmitted using this industrial fieldbus. Modbus ®
protocol is a Master-Slaves protocol. Only one master (at the same time) is connected to the bus and
one or up to 32 slave nodes are also connected to the same serial bus. Modbus ® communication is
always initiated by the master. The slave nodes will never transmit data without receiving a request
from the master node. The slave nodes will never communicate with each other. The master node
initiates only one Modbus® transaction at the same time.
Modbus® option is available only for selected gases. Please refer to chapter 14 Ordering information.
To find out if a unit has the Modbus® option fitted, look at the part number on the product label. Units
fitted with Modbus® have the letter ‘M’ at the end of the part number.

The Sensepoint XCD transmitter requires a power supply from the controller of between 12 Vdc and
32 Vdc. Ensure that a minimum supply of 12 Vdc is measured at the sensor, considering the voltage
drop due to cable resistance.
The maximum loop resistance in the field cable is calculated as follows:
R loop = (V controller – V detector min) / I detector
Example:
The controller is supplying a nominal 24 Vdc (V controller), the detector minimum allowable voltage is
12 Vdc (V detector min), therefore the maximum allowable voltage drop between the controller and detector
is 12 Vdc; this means a voltage drop of 6 V in each core (+ve core and -ve core).
Diagram 10 Power Connection

Power consumption of the detector is 5.0 W. The current required to drive the detector at the minimum
voltage is (I = P / V), 5.0 / 12 = 416.7 mA (I detector).
So, the maximum field cable loop resistance (R loop) = 12 / 0.42 = 28.8 Ohms, or 14.4 Ohms per core
(allowing for component variations, losses, etc.).
The following tables show the maximum cable distances between the controller and transmitter
assuming a voltage drop of 4V in each core and for different cable parameters. The tables are examples
only and actual cable parameters and source power supply voltage for the application should be used
to calculate the maximum cable distance allowed at the installation site.

Cabling
CAUTION
All unused and used cable/conduit entries must be sealed with a suitable certified
sealing plug and cable gland.
The use of industrial grade, suitably armoured field cable is recommended.
For example, screened 3 cores (plus screen 90 % coverage), suitably mechanically protected copper
cable with a suitable M20 explosion-proof gland, or 3/4’ NPT steel conduit, with 0.5 to 2.5 mm2
(20 to 13 AWG) conductors. Ensure the cable gland is installed correctly and fully tightened. All unused
cable/conduit entries must be sealed with a suitable certified sealing plug (one plug is supplied).
Cable and Earth/Ground regimes

Effective earth/ground bonding is important to ensure good EMC and RFI immunity.
The following diagrams show examples of how to earth/ground bond the cable at enclosures. The same
principles apply to conduit installations. These bonding techniques provide good RFI/EMC performance.
Earth/ground loops must be avoided to prevent the risk of false signal variation.

The earth screen of the field cable should be ‘tied to Earth’ or connected to ground at one point only. It
is common practice to adopt a STAR EARTH connection regime where all instrumentation screens are
connected at one common point.
The screen at the other end of the cable should be ‘parked’ or terminated into a blank terminal.
The following diagrams show how to install the wire into the ground screw of the enclosure.
Loosen the bolt Insert cable Fasten the bolt
Ground Terminal Wiring

Internal Ground connection: Utilize the shield of the wiring cable recommended in the wiring instructions.
For connection to this terminal. Twist the shield wire to avoid stray shield wires, Loosen the screw
sufficiently and wrap the wire around the screw in a ‘U’ shape. Raise the clamp and place the wire
between the clamp and ground base, lower the clamp and tighten the screw to a torque of 6.9 lb-in.
External Ground Connection: If required by local authority, utilize a 4 mm2 copper, (Stranded or Solid),
wire. Loosen the screw sufficiently to enable ‘wrapping the wire around the screw in a ‘U’ shape. Raise
the clamp and place the wire between the clamp and ground base, lower the clamp and tighten the
screw to a torque of 10.4 lb-in.
Modbus RTU Wiring

This is available on Modbus versions only.
Sensepoint XCD supports half-duplex Modbus RTU communications with up to 32 devices using

8. First time switch on (Commissioning)

WARNING
The following procedure requires the Transmitter Cover to be removed while carrying out
supply voltage checks. Therefore, the appropriate permits to work should be sought in
preparation.
Prior to carrying out any HOT WORK ensure local and site procedures are followed.
Ensure that the associated control panel output actuation is inhibited so as to prevent false
alarms.
CAUTION
The following procedure should be followed carefully and only performed by suitably
trained personnel.
Note: Calibration is mandatory before the detector can be used for gas monitoring. Refer to chapter 9.1
Calibration for the proper procedure.
1. Remove the transmitter housing cover and detach the display unit by lifting the semi- circular
handle and pulling the assembly directly away from the termination module (without twisting it)
2. Configure the detector's analogue output signal configuration for Current SINK or Current
SOURCE operation using the selector switch located on the back of the display module. The
default setting is Current SOURCE.
3. Check that all electrical connections are terminated correctly as per chapter 5.
4. Switch On the external power supply to the transmitter at the safe area gas detection controller
(or PLC).
5. Using a Digital Multi Meter (DMM), check the Supply Voltage at the terminals 1 (24 V) and
2 (0 V), this should be a minimum supply voltage of 12 Vdc or 16 Vdc depending on the
transmitter version (Maximum supply voltage is 32 Vdc)
6. Switch Off the external power to the detector.
7. Refit the Display Module and Cover.
Note: Ensure that none of the wires in the terminal area cause an obstruction when refitting the Display
Module. Ensure that the socket on the Display Module is fully engaged in the Display Module Connector

9. Response Check and Calibration

It is recommended to periodically carry out a gas response check on the Sensepoint XCD to ensure
correct operation. This may be done in two ways;
A simple Response Check often referred to as a ‘BUMP TEST’ is a test using calibration gas applied to
the sensor via the nozzle of the Weather Protection or using the Sensepoint XCD Gassing Cap.
If a BUMP TEST is done via the Weather Protection nozzle it may be necessary in windy conditions to
increase the flow rate of the test gas by a further 1 l/min, OR, to shelter the weather protection from the
wind.
A full gas calibration of the sensor as described in the following section, using ONLY the Sensepoint
XCD Gassing Cap (Part No.: S3KCAL).
Zeroing and span calibration
WARNING
As some calibration gases may be hazardous, ensure that outlets from gassing accessories
exhaust safely.
CAUTION
Before initial calibration allow the detector to stabilize for 30 minutes after applying power.
When in zeroing and span calibration mode the current output from the detector is
inhibited (default 2 mA) to avoid false alarms. For Flammable gas calibration use a
calibration gas concentration of between 25 % LEL and 75 % LEL to ensure that the
required accuracy can be attained. For Hydrogen Sulfide type sensors refer to chapter 9.2
before conducting zero and span calibration. For toxic sensors use a calibration gas of
approximately 50 % FSD.
To calibrate the detector, use an appropriate span gas cylinder, constant flow regulator AND the
Sensepoint XCD Gassing Cap (see chapter 3.2). The flow rates used for calibration gas are as follows:
Gas Type Flow rate (l/min)

Air or N2 for Zero 0.5 to 1.0
Flammable CAT 1 to 1.5
O2 0.5 to 1.0
H2S 0.5 to 1.0
CO 0.5 to 1.0
H2 0.5 to 1.0
NO2 0.5 to 1.0
Flammable IR 0.4 to 0.6
CO2 IR 0.4 to 0.6
34
A compressed air cylinder (20.9 % v/v oxygen) should be used to perform the zero calibration if the
area where the detector is located contains any residual amount of the target gas. If no residual gas
is present, then the background air can be used to perform the zero calibration. Contact your
Honeywell Analytics representative for details of suitable calibration kits.
To calibrate the detector, follow the procedure below.
Note: The Oxygen sensor does not require a zeroing procedure. Background air (20.9 % v/v oxygen)
can be used to span the oxygen sensor in place of a compressed air cylinder (20.9 % v/v oxygen). For
oxygen sensors only do parts 1-4, 12, 13 (if compressed air cylinder is used), 14-17 and 22 of the
procedure below.
9.1.1. Zero Calibration
WARNING
When calibrating the Flammable IR or CO2 IR sensors, it is essential that the zero
calibration is always followed by a span calibration. The zero calibration must never be
done alone.
Note: When the Flammable-CAT sensor is replaced, it is necessary to re-initialize the baseline. Select
‘InIt bASE’ from the menu system.
1. If the ambient air is NOT considered reliable to use to set the ZERO, then remove the weather
protection and fit the Gassing Cap accessory (see chapter 3.2) onto the sensor and apply a
clean source of zero gas or compressed air.
2. To access the calibration menu, hold the end of the magnet over the switch located at the top
centre of the detector display (✓) for at least 3 seconds and then remove.
3. The display will indicate the first configuration mode menu ‘SEt CAL’.
4. Place the magnet over the ‘✓’ switch again and move to enter the Calibration menu.
5. The display will show the current gas reading, and the ‘ ’ icon flashes.
6. When the zero gas reading is stable use ‘✓’ to confirm zero calibration.
7. If successful the display shows ‘ZEro PASS’ (if not successful, the display shows ‘ZEro FAIL’ and
returns to configuration mode).
35
8. If using zero-air, turn it off. Zeroing is complete and saved.

9. The display shows ‘SPAn’ with ‘YES’ flashing.
10. If span calibration is required use ‘✓’ proceed to the next step. If span calibration is not required,
use ‘’ to select ‘No’ and ‘✓’ to return to configuration mode.
WARNING
When calibrating the Flammable IR or CO2 IR sensors, it is essential that the span
calibration is done after a zero calibration.
9.1.2. Span Calibration

1. The display shows the current calibration span gas concentration while flashing the ‘ ’ icon.
Use ‘’ to change the calibration span gas concentration, and ‘✓’ when required span
calibration level is set.
2. The display will show the current gas reading, and the ‘ ’ icon flashes.
3. Connect the regulator to the span gas cylinder.
4. Apply the span gas to the sensor using the Sensepoint XCD Gassing Cap (see chapter 3.2 for
description). The live gas reading is displayed. When the reading is stable, use ‘✓’ to confirm
span calibration.
5. If the sensor has been replaced the following display may be shown.
36
6. Use ‘’ to select ‘YES’ if the sensor has been replaced or ‘No’ if it has not been replaced.
7. If the span calibration is successful, the instrument will briefly display ‘SPAn PASS’ (if fails
‘SPAN FAIL’ displayed and returns to configuration mode).
Note: the calibration due warning counter is reset after a successful calibration. See chapter 12.2 for
further details of setting a calibration due warning.
1. The display alternates between ‘Purg gAS’ and the gas reading to indicate that the unit is
expecting the span gas to be removed from the sensor.
2. Promptly switch off the calibration span gas and remove the Sensepoint XCD Gassing Cap
from the sensor to allow the gas to disperse.
3. When the reading falls below 50% of the calibration gas level the display indicates a countdown
(up to 180 seconds dependant on gas type).
4. When the countdown is finished, the calibration procedure is complete.
5. The instrument returns to the ‘Set CAL’ menu. Activate the ‘’ or ‘’ switch to select another
menu or select ‘QuIT’ to return to normal monitoring mode.
37
Note: Remember to always replace the Weather Protection and other accessories.
38
Zeroing and span calibration of Hydrogen Sulfide

sensors
Hydrogen Sulfide sensors can be affected by extreme humidity changes. A sudden increase in ambient
humidity can result in a short-term positive drift in the instrument’s reading. A sudden decrease in
ambient humidity can result in a short-term negative drift in the instrument’s reading. These are most
likely to be noticed during calibration with dry or cylinder gas.
When calibrating Hydrogen Sulfide cartridges, the following should be considered while following the
procedure in 10.1:
1. To zero the sensor, use a compressed air cylinder of 20.9 % v/v oxygen (not Nitrogen). Do not
use background air.
Apply the gas to the sensor for three minutes before using ‘✓’ to confirm the zero calibration.
2. If a span calibration is to be performed, the span calibration gas should be applied to the sensor
immediately after the zeroing procedure. Do not allow the sensor to return to ambient air
conditions between steps 2 and 3.
3. Apply the span gas for two minutes before using ‘✓’ to confirm the span calibration.

Care should be taken when removing and refitting the Sensepoint XCD plug-in Sensor.
Cartridge to the Sensor Socket so that damage to the connection pins can be avoided.
Before carrying out any work ensure local regulations and site procedures are followed. Appropriate
standards must be followed to maintain the overall certification of the sensor and transmitter.
To reduce the risk of ignition of hazardous atmosphere, de-classify the area or disconnect the equipment
from the supply circuit before opening the transmitter enclosure. Keep assembly tightly closed during
operation.
Never attempt to open a junction box/enclosure or replace/refit the sensor in potentially
hazardous atmospheres.
disposed of in an environmentally safe manner. Disposal should be according to local waste management
requirements and environmental legislation.
Alternatively, old replaceable sensors may be securely packaged and returned to Honeywell Analytics clearly
marked for environmental disposal.
Electrochemical sensors should NOT be incinerated as this action may cause the cell to emit toxic fumes.
Honeywell Analytics recommends that gas detectors are tested and re-calibrated on a six-monthly basis,
or according to site practice. For remote Flammable or Toxic sensors used with the XCD Transmitter,
refer to the individual sensor manuals for specific recommended calibration periods. If a toxic sensor is
exposed to a gas concentration significantly above the measuring range, it shall be calibrated as soon
as possible afterwards.
40
Operational Life
The pellistors fitted in the Flammable Catalytic sensors are poison resistant to maximize the
operational life of the sensor, however they can suffer from a loss of sensitivity when in the presence
of poisons or inhibitors, e.g. silicones, sulfides, chlorine, lead or halogenated hydrocarbons. A
typical operating life, subject to the presence of poisons/inhibitors is 36 months.
The NDIR (infrared) flammable gas sensor is not affected by the above-mentioned poisons and
therefore, has a longer life span. A typical operating life is 5 years.
The typical life of a toxic gas sensor is dependent on the application, frequency and amount of gas
exposure. Under normal conditions (3 monthly visual inspection and 6 monthly test/re- calibration), the
Sensepoint XCD Oxygen and other toxic sensors have an expected life equal to or greater than 24
months.
Refer to chapter 11.1 for sensor replacement procedures.
CAUTION
Oxygen deficient atmospheres (less than 6 % v/v) may result in inaccuracy of
reading and performance.
41
11. Servicing
WARNINGS
Take care when handling sensors as they may contain corrosive solutions. Do not tamper or
in any way dis-assemble the sensor. Do not expose to temperatures outside the
recommended range. Do not expose sensor to organic solvents or flammable liquids.
Care should be taken when removing and refitting the Sensepoint XCD plug-in Sensor
At the end of their working life, replacement electrochemical sensors for oxygen and toxic gas
must be disposed of in an environmentally safe manner. Disposal should be according to
local waste management requirements and environmental legislation.
Alternatively, old replaceable sensors may be securely packaged and returned to Honeywell
Analytics clearly marked for environmental disposal.
Electrochemical sensors should NOT be incinerated as this action may cause the cell to emit
toxic fumes.
CAUTION
The following procedure should be followed carefully and only performed by suitably
trained personnel.
A fault condition will be signaled by the detector if the sensor is removed with the unit
under power.
42
Sensor replacement
The Flammable Catalytic and Toxic ECC sensor cartridges that are used with the Sensepoint XCD
Sensor Socket have no serviceable parts. When they have reached the end of their operational life,
simply replace the sensor cartridge.

Sensor / Gas Selection

Note: This Configuration option is not available for Sensepoint XCD units with EC sensors.
12.3.1. Sensor Selection

‘Select Sensor’ sets the identity of the type of mV sensor attached to the Sensepoint XCD when it
does not detect the sensor type automatically. When the sensor type is detected by Sensepoint XCD
automatically, the current sensor type can be confirmed in this menu.
The available mV sensors are as follows:
Ir-1 NDIR Infrared CO2 0-2 % v/v

Ir-3 NDIR Infrared Methane 0-100 % LEL
Ir-4 NDIR Infrared Propane 0-100 % LEL
Cb-1 Catalytic 0-100 % LEL
12.3.2. Gas Selection
Use ‘SEL gAS’ to set the target gas for sensors capable of detecting multiple gases. The available gases
are as follows:
Sensor type Gas type Gas Name displayed
Ir-1 CO2 CO2

Ir-3 mEt mEt
Ir-4 Propane PrO
Cb-1 Str1 to Str8 FLM
Gas selection is dependent on the type of sensor attached to the Sensepoint XCD. If Ir-1/Ir-3/Ir-4
sensor is attached, then gas type is detected by the Sensepoint XCD automatically (for example
CO2/mEt/ProP). When a type Cb-1 sensor is attached to the Sensepoint XCD, a user can select the gas
from Str1 (1*) to Str8 (8*). For more information on star rating, refer to chapter 18.2.
Note: For standard calibration (calibration gas = target gas) the following parameters are to be used:
Methane Star Rating 6* Gas Str 6 100 % LEL = 4.4 % v/v
Propane Star Rating 5* Gas Str 5 100 % LEL = 1.7 % v/v
The current configuration of the XCD is displayed and by using the ‘✓’ switch to enter ‘SEL gAS’ menu.
To select a flammable gas, use ‘’ to move through the list, then use ‘✓’ to make the selection or
abort function to discard the selection and return to menu mode.
If type of gas is changed, calibration prompt will appear to ask if you want to perform calibration.

1. Slave ID shall be set 1~247
2. Baud rate setting 9600 or 19200
3. Parity setting (No, Even, Odd)
From the Configuration Mode screen, select ‘✓’. To set the Modbus Slave ID, use the up-down
‘▲▼’switches to move to the desired position and use ‘✓’ to select it. Again, using the ‘▲▼’switches,
increment or decrement the value until the desired value appears, selects the value and moves to the
next setting.
53
The communications baud rate and Parity Setting can also be set from this screen by using the ‘▲▼’
switches to navigate to the baud rate display then selecting ‘✓’. Using the ‘▲▼’switches, highlight the
proper baud rate or parity setting and select ‘✓’. Default is Slave ID 1, 19200bps and even parity.
Note: The ‘Set ID’ menu is available only for Sensepoint XCD equipped with Modbus option.

NOTES
Performance figures are taken at 20~25°C;
1. measured using a sample humidity of 50 % RH, applicable between 10 and 90 % of full scale,
2. measured using test units calibrated at 50 % of full scale,
3. measured at 1000 cc/min for Methane CAT, 500 cc/min for O2, Toxic and Methane/Carbon Dioxide IR with calibration cup (S3KCAL).
4. Toxic and Oxygen sensor recovery times are taken at 20°C, 50 % RH and 500 cc/min with calibration cup (S3KCAL).
5. The maximum recommended alarm level for flammable sensors according to EN60079-29-1 is 60 % LEL.
6. Please note that XCD oxygen transmitter is intended for the measurement of oxygen deficiency or enrichment and not for inertisation measurements.
7. Response time (T90) under test conditions of EN 50104 ≤ 38 s
8. Response time (T90) under test conditions of EN 60079-29-1 for methane ≤ 55 s, for propane ≤ 60 s.
Response time (T90) may increase when operating in lower or higher temperature conditions or when gas is introduced with the Weather Protection accessory (SPXCDWP) fitted. Methane IR sensor is calibrated and linearized
only for Methane. Should it be exposed to other HC then non-linear response is expected. For linearized operation other than Methane contact Honeywell for alternate parts. Flammable CAT and Methane IR is calibrated at the
factory 50 % LEL Methane (2.5 % v/v). This calibration enables 100% functional test prior to dispatch. This calibration does not remove need for calibration & test as part of commissioning at site.
For gases other than Methane the unit has to be calibrated at site using target gas.Data represents typical values, and system conditioning may be required to achieve stated result. Contact Honeywell for details.
* Extended operating temperature range of -40°C to +65°C (-40°F to +149°F) for all sensor except for IR and H2 EC sensors, with an accuracy of +/- 30 % of applied gas from -20°C to -40°C (-4°F to -40°F) and +55°C to +65°C
(+131°F to +149°F). For the Methane IR Sensors, the accuracy is +/-10 % LEL from - 20°C to -40°C.
Long term operation at this range may cause decline in sensor performance.
** Care should be taken when setting alarm points lower than 3 ppm especially in high humidity conditions (higher than 50 % RH), since the gas reading could be lower than the actual concentration. Contact
Honeywell Analytics for any additional data or details.

Cross Calibration Flammable Gas Detector

Note: Not a scope for performance approval
For greater accuracy, a catalytic gas detector should be calibrated using a certified gas/air mixture equal
to 50 % LEL of the actual target gas intended to be monitored.
However, it is not always practical to obtain every detectable type of hydrocarbon gas in a calibration-
ready, certified and verifiable form. Therefore, it is possible to carry out a ‘cross calibration’ using another
hydrocarbon gas/air mixture.
When the Sensepoint XCD Combustible LEL sensor is to be calibrated with a gas which is different to
the gas or vapour to be detected, the following cross calibration procedure may be followed:
CAUTION
Where the user calibrates any sensor using a different gas, responsibility for identifying and
recording calibration rests with the user. Refer to the local regulations where appropriate.
Note: Table 10 lists a selection of hydrocarbon compounds and states a reference figure or ‘Star
Rating’ according to the reaction they produce in relation to other hydrocarbons. An eight-star (8*) gas
produces the highest output, while a one-star (1*) gas produces the lowest output.
No. Gas Star Rating

Table 10 Star Rating of Gases
75
To cross calibrate the Sensepoint XCD flammable gas detector:

Obtain the star rating for both the calibration test gas and the gas to be detected from Table 10
These values may then be used in Table 11 to obtain the required calibration span setting when a 50 %
LEL test gas is applied to the detector.
Table 11 Calibration span setting

Note: These settings must only be used with a calibration gas concentration of 50 % LEL.
If a sensor is to be used to detect a gas other than that for which it was calibrated and there is no
intention to use an equivalent calibration gas to re-calibrate the sensor, then the required correction
factor may be obtained from Table 12
The reading shown on the gas detector controller or transmitter display should be multiplied by this
number in order to obtain a more accurate gas concentration result.
0.64
Table 12 Correction factors

Note:
Since catalytic sensors require oxygen for correct operation, a mixture of gas in air should always be
used for calibration purposes.
Assuming average performance of the sensor, the sensitivity information in Tables 10 to 12 is
normally accurate to + or - 30 %.
76
Working Example:
If the target gas to be detected is 0-100 % LEL Ethylene and the only calibration gas available to re-
calibrate the sensor is Methane (at 50 % LEL concentration), the procedure is as follows:
Look up the star rating for each gas in Table 10.
Gas No. 14, Ethylene = 5*

Gas no. 18, Methane = 6*
Then, look up the span settings for a 50 % LEL calibration gas in Table 11 by selecting the row of figures
next to the 6* in the ‘calibration gas’ column. Select the figure in the 5* column of the ‘gas to be detected’
chapter.
This means that during re-calibration, the span gas setting on the gas detector transmitter or controller
should be set to 62 % LEL to give an accurate measuring scale for 0-100 % LEL Ethylene, when using
50 % LEL Methane as the calibration gas.
Contact your local Honeywell Analytics sales or service distributor, or regional office if further clarification
or additional information be required.

Meter Multiplication Factors for Sensepoint XCD-IR

Propane
It is possible to apply a linear cross reference factor to the output of a sensor characterized for propane
and achieve the results shown in the graph below.
Reasonable accuracy is maintained to at least the 50 % LEL equivalent values of the cross-referred
gasses.
XCD IR Propane Sensor (Full scale 2 % v/v or 100 % LEL)
Diagram 20 . Sensepoint XCD-IR (Propane) Sensor with linear cross-reference factor applied
Use the following multiplying factors to cross-refer to the propane reading:

Gas Multiplication Factor
Ethylene 3.43
nButane 0.97
nPentane 0.89
Table 13 Multiplying Factors
CAUTION
These factors only apply to gas concentrations expressed in % Volume terms. When
using a linear cross-reference factor, the temperature compensation is based upon
propane, and there may be errors at temperatures away from the calibration
temperature.
Note: Honeywell Analytics recommends that users verify the accuracy of their instruments using test
gasses wherever possible. Cross-referred measurements should be used as a guide only, not as
absolute values.

Appendix A - Modbus® Protocol A-2

A.1 Modbus and the Sensepoint XCD
The Sensepoint XCD gas detector may be fitted with the optional Modbus board. Information on the
Modbus Upgrade Kit can be found in chapter 14 Ordering Information. The Sensepoint XCD supports
Modbus/RTU over an RS-485 physical layer. The interface is isolated and includes a switchable 120
Ohm termination resistor. Baud rates 9,600 or 19,200 are supported with 19,200 as the default. Most of
the operations that are possible with local user interface can also be performed over the Modbus
interface.
See chapter 5.2 and 5.7 for information on installing the optional Modbus hardware. See chapter 12.3.3
Configure Menu – Set ID Settings for information on setting the Modbus baud rate and parity using the
local user interface.
The suggested polling interval is 0.2 to 1 seconds depending on cable type, length and connected nodes.
