14Detector Placement
- Open path detectors should be installed based on
several considerations - Hazard conditions within the installation area
covered - Ventilation rates, direction, and presence of
recirculation and dead zones - Sensitivity to low (geometric) sunlight, fog, and
reflections - Powerful sources of electromagnetic emissions
like high powered electrical towers - Structures that may interfere with line of sight
Health and Safety Executive, Offshore
Division, Fire and Explosion Strategy, Issue 1,
2004.
15Installation
- When installing an ULTIMA OPIR-5 detector, it is
useful to consider the following - Vibration can create issues
- Solid foundation improves alignment integrity
- The longer the line of sight path, the more solid
the foundation required - Maintain a 6 to 12 radius around the line of
site beam to avoid reflective interference from
piping and supports - For outdoor installations, consider maximum snow
levels - Good immunity to fog, steam, and rain but
immunity degrades over longer distances - Avoid pedestrian traffic or overhead cranes
- Keep beam low and down wind for heavy gases like
propane and high for light gases like methane

Ultima OPIR-5 Receiver
17Split Concentration Range
- With the split range function, users can monitor
the entire span of gas concentration with a
single analog signal - Reduces wiring and commissioning costs
18Alignment
- Simple alignment process
- Arm or base mounts available
- Display
- Menus activated by magnet
- Enables easy alignment, setup diagnostics
19Maintenance
- As with other combustible sensors, the ULTIMA
OPIR-5 should be included in the plant
maintenance schedule - Gas check frequency depends on operating
conditions (ex. dusty, corrosive, or damp
environment) - Before repair or maintenance, the gas detector
should be removed to a safe place outside the
area being protected - If the hazard is still potentially present, it
will be necessary to use a replacement gas
detector in the area until the original detector
is reinstated
BS EN 500731999 Guide for the selection,
installation, use and maintenance of apparatus
for the detection and measurement of combustible
gases or oxygen.
20Diagnostics
- The ULTIMA OPIR-5 has self-diagnostics that
inform users when certain types of device
failures have occurred
Fault Code Description
F0 Excessive negative drift or high IR
F1 Partial beam block or dirty lens
F2 Alignment
F3 Beam block
F5 Setup menu not exited
F6 Low supply voltage
F7 Heater error
F8 Failed zeroing
F9 Gas left (timeout)
F10 Reset short
F11 Unit overheating
tF7 Source internal error
21HART
- The ULTIMA OPIR-5 is available with HART for
better efficiency with remote communication - Only the primary scale, LELm or split range,
connects through HART - Benefits of the HART-equipped ULTIMA OPIR-5
- Better diagnostics of problems
- Improved management of maintenance history and
event logging - Flexible and accurate digital transmission
- Effective cost control of devices in the field
- Installation savings due to fewer wires
22HART Analog Signal for Faults
- Because HART requires a minimum current for
operation, the ULTIMA OPIR-5s fault conditions
use 3.5 mA as minimum analog output
Function Current Level (mA) Current Level (mA) Current Level (mA) Current Level (mA)
Function Analog Output (Standard) Modbus HART (Default) HART-modified Analog Output
Fault 0 0 3.5 1.25
Test Gas 1.5 1.5 3.5 1.5
Setup Mode 1.5 1.5 3.5 1.5
Beam Block 2.0 2.0 3.5 2.0

Gas Concentration 4 20 4 20 4 20 4 20
Over-range 21.7 21.7 21.7 21.7
On HART-equipped unit, user must select the
HART-modified AO in order use AO values below 3.5
mA

scales - First among major open path models to be
certified to FM Approvals, EN, and IECEx
performance standards - First to offer split range scale for ppm-m and
LEL-m monitoring - First to be certified for operation at -55?C
29Sales Strategies (Continued)
- No tools required for alignment at any range
- It is possible to align the open path detector
without a scope at 100 m or more - Integral display
- Reduces installation time and total cost to own
30Conclusion
- The Ultima OPIR-5 compares well with other open
path detectors in the market
- Repeatability
- Linearity
- Operating temperature range
31Conclusion (Continued)
- The instruments dual concentration range and
integral display are differentiators - No other detector offers a performance-certified
dual range - Most commercial models require a handheld or
controller to read gas concentrations or perform
maintenance - The Ultima OPIR-5 open path detector is well
positioned to meet users demands for enhanced
safety and longevity
