1.2 MOUNTING CONFIGURATION
Various module mounting configurations can be implemented without special fixtures. Where applicable,
these options are factory configured prior to shipment. Mounting configuration can be selected by the installer
or field technician and are fully described in this manual. Sensor must always be oriented downward.
1.3 THEORY OF OPERATION
Electrochemical sensors are fuel cell-like devices consisting of an anode, cathode, and electrolyte. The
components of the cell are selected so a subject gas, allowed to diffuse into the cell, will cause a chemical
reaction and generate a current. The cells are diffusion limited so the rate the gas enters the cell is solely
dependent on the gas concentration. The current generated is proportional to the rate of consumption of the
subject gas in the cell.
Page 1 of 35
Sierra Monitor electrochemical sensors provide improved reliability by allowing the gas to diffuse into the
sensor through a capillary port, rather than diffusing through membranes. The result is an extremely stable
sensor with very low temperature and pressure coefficients and the capability to monitor gas as ppm.
1.4 MECHANICAL
The sensor module is comprised of the following three primary components:
1.4.1 ENCLOSURE
Explosion proof, rain-tight aluminum or stainless steel electrical housing with three ¾” FNPT conduit hubs.
The enclosure cover has a viewing window. The 3 conduit hubs combined with the rotatable faceplate
enable the user to mount the module in a variety of configurations. See Figure 1-2 for details.
1.4.2 TRANSMITTER ELECTRONICS
Electronic Assembly consisting of one printed circuit board assembly mounted under a cover plate. Wiring
connections for power and signal interface are located on the back side of the display.
1.4.3 SENSOR ASSEMBLY
The sensor assembly includes a stainless steel, explosion proof, housing containing the gas sensor and a
wiring harness for connection to the transmitter. The sensor assembly threads into one hub of the
enclosure. The exposed end of the sensor assembly is threaded to allow connection of a rain-shield or
calibration gas delivery fitting.
1.5 INTERCONNECT WIRING
Not supplied with the sensor module, but necessary to the installation and operation is the two conductor
wiring shielded which connects the module to its power source and controller. Before this wiring is installed it
is important to read and understand the control system installation instructions to determine wiring
requirements and alternatives.
1.6 POWER REQUIREMENTS
The 4501-XX module operates on DC power between 14 VDC and 30 VDC. The DC power must be supplied
by the loop controller.

2. CAUTIONS & WARNINGS
2.1 INTRODUCTION
Although the 4501-XX Gas Sensor Module is designed and constructed for installation and operation in
industrial applications including hostile environments, caution should be taken to insure that the installation is
made in compliance with this instruction manual and that certain procedures and conditions are avoided. This
chapter discusses the necessary cautions. Read the entire chapter prior to installation of the equipment.
2.2 GAS SENSOR MODULES - GENERAL
Avoid installing sensor modules where they will be unnecessarily exposed to wind, dust, water (i.e. direct hose
down), shock, or vibration. Observe temperature range limitations.
Sensors may be adversely affected by prolonged exposure to certain materials. Loss of sensitivity, or
corrosion, may be gradual if such materials are present in low concentrations. These materials include:
Halides (compounds containing chlorine, fluorine, bromine, iodine), acid vapors, caustic liquids or mists.
Care has been taken by the manufacturer to ship modules in protective packaging to avoid contamination prior
to installation. It is recommended that the modules remain protected during installation and that the covering
be removed immediately prior to system start-up.
During normal use the O2, CO, H2S, SO2 and NO2 sensors are protected from dirt and oil contamination by a
sintered metal cover. If this cover becomes clogged, the response of the sensor will be reduced. Protect the
sensor from contamination by careful placement, or by use of rain shields and dust shields.
Sensor modules must not be painted. Paint may contain compounds which will contaminate the sensor. Paint
will cause clogging of the sintered metal cover and will cause difficulties during attachment of the calibration
head or other maintenance activity. It is recommended that the module be tagged "DO NOT PAINT".
2.3 WIRING
The manufacturer recommends that extra caution be taken where the installation is near any sources of
electromagnetic or radio frequency interference. Precautions include:
•
Avoid running sensor module cable close to high power cables, radio transmission lines, or cables
subject to pulses of high current.
•
Avoid running cables near large electric motors or generators.
•
Analog devices require shielded cable.
•
In conduit installations and cable applications the shield should be connected to instrument ground.
•
All splices must be via either a termination hardware system or soldered. Improperly spliced cable can
result in corrosion, resistance changes and system errors.
NOTE
Installation and wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code.
Voltage AC conductors are not to be run in the same conduit as voltage DC
conductors.
2.4 CALIBRATION FREQUENCY
The 4501-XX calibration frequency is six months (180 days). However, prudent gas detector maintenance
practices normally suggest a simple recalibration following incidences of exposure to high levels of gas that
would lead to alarm activation within any system utilizing the output of the gas sensor module.
Page 4 of 35
3. QUICK START
3.1 OVERVIEW
The gas sensor module has been supplied factory calibrated and ready for immediate installation and
operation. An installer familiar with installation and operation of gas detection products can use this section to
begin immediate use of the module.
3.2 WIRING
Provide two conductor twisted shielded wiring from the power supply/control device to the sensor module
location. Use wire that is 18 AWG or larger.
3.3 MODULE INSTALLATION
The 4501-XX can be mounted in a variety of configurations supported by the conduit. See figure 1-2 to
determine which configuration is best for your specific application. The default configuration enables the
modules to be put in line with other modules with the sensor element below the transmitter. To change the
configuration simply remove the transmitter and rotate to the appropriate configuration and remount the
standoffs and transmitter.
The module is designed to be installed on a ¾” conduit. Two important warnings:
•
The installation must meet any hazardous environment codes for electrical equipment.
•
The sensor module enclosure mounting must be spaced far enough from any vertical surface
to allow removal and replacement of the sensor assembly which is threaded into one ¾”
conduit entry.
•
Sensor housing must be oriented vertically pointing downward.
3.4 TRANSMITTER INSTALLATION
To install the transmitter printed circuit assembly into the housing, carefully turn the faceplate so that the
printing is in the correct horizontal position for the mounting configuration and slide the assembly over the two
stand-offs in the enclosure.
Hand tighten the two captive panel thumb screws into the stand-offs. Replace the enclosure cover prior to
providing power to the transmitter.
•
If the transmitter is installed in a classified hazardous area, replace the threaded cover prior to
providing power.
3.5 START-UP & OPERATION
To begin operation of the sensor module activate the instrument loop with 14-30 VDC. Each time the sensor
module is powered up it will perform a warm-up for approximately 1.0 minutes (60 seconds). During this time
the display will read “Starting”. The loop output will be held at 4 mA.
NOTE: If the sensor is uncalibrated, the startup display will state “UNCALIB” instead of “STARTING”
NOTE: The 4501-06, 4501-08, 4501-25 and 4501-26 require 300 seconds warm-up period
After the warm-up period has expired, the display will indicate the gas concentration. Also, the instrument loop
will be released to output current in the range of 4 to 20 mA. The actual current is linear with the gas
concentration and depends on the selected range. For instance, when the range of 0 to 50 PPM has been
selected, a current of 4 mA corresponds to 0 PPM and a current of 20 mA corresponds to 50 PPM.
3.6 ZERO STABILIZATION
All electrochemical sensors require at least 30 minutes on power prior to calibration. This allows the electrode
potentials to equilibrate, resulting in a stable zero signal level.
Page 5 of 35
4. INSTALLATION
4.1 SENSOR MODULE LOCATIONS
The gas sensor module utilizes a diffusion type sensor which
should be located close to either the expected source or
destination of the gas hazard. If the gas is heavier than air, the
sensor module should be installed within 24 inches of the ground
or floor. If it is lighter than air, move it above 6’.
After optimum locations are determined based on the above
recommendations, consideration should be given to placing the
sensor modules in locations which are accessible for calibration
service. Slight adjustments to the location of the sensor module
may have little impact on effectiveness but major effect on
accessibility.
•
Modules should be placed in areas accessible for
calibration.
•
The cover should face out from the wall for easy access.
•
Sensors should be pointed down and the conduit should
include an inverse trap to reduce moisture (condensation)
from accumulating in the electronics enclosure.

6. CALIBRATION
6.1 CALIBRATION FREQUENCY
The sensor module must be calibrated every 180 days at a minimum. Periodic functional tests are advisable
for critical applications and hostile environments.
The sensor module microprocessor software includes high-level self checking algorithms which provide
continuous sensor diagnostic and self adjustment.
6.2 CALIBRATION PREPARATION
Calibration of the sensor is accomplished by simple menu based steps and application of span gas.
NOTE
If an error is made during any stage of the calibration process, hold the magnet stick at the
[M] for 10 seconds. A scrolling display will indicate “calibration aborted” and the sensor
module will exit the calibration activity and return to normal operating mode. The calibration
procedure can then be restarted.
Calibration must be performed only when the area is known to be clear of the gas of interest. When in doubt,
use a portable instrument to confirm that there is no background.
For compliance with Factory Mutual (FM) Approvals, the Sierra Monitor Model 1250-01, 1260 -05 and 1260-45
are the FM Approved calibration gas delivery devices. Use the Model 5358-01 Calibration Adapter delivery
fitting.
NOTE: Refer to Appendix D for information on use of permeation tube for 4501-25 calibration.
6.3 CALIBRATION GAS DELIVERY METHODS
Calibration gas can be delivered to the sensors via the Model 5358-01:
Calibration Adapter (Figure 6-1) - used with portable calibrators.

The Calibration Menu is described on Table 6-1:
The procedure requires that the menu “keys” be activated using the magnet stick.
Each key press steps through the process of setting the zero value for clean air
and then setting the span value.
Sample Gas In
At each of these steps, apply calibration gas of the value corresponding to
the setting accepted on the sensor module display.
6.4 SENSOR EXPOSURE TO GAS
Calibration gas must be delivered to the sensor using the flow rate and
duration listed in below:

Oxygen Calibration: If area is known to be safe with adequate air flow, you may use the surrounding air as the calibration gas.
If Oxygen levels are unknown, it is recommended to use a Zero Air gas standard.
When calibrating an Oxygen module, there is no zero gas process in the calibration procedure. Only span adjustments can be
made. Normal ambient Air = 20.9% Oxygen.
Begin calibration procedure using the magnet on the Mode key until CALIB is displayed.
Enter to begin procedure. Select cal gas value (20.9), Enter to confirm.
Apply span gas for 3 minutes or use surrounding air if acceptable.
Select Enter when done, and procedure is complete.
NOTE
The Analog output values to be transmitted during the calibration procedure are selected in
the maintenance configuration. Normal 20.9% value provides 17.3 mA.

There are no field serviceable components below the sub assembly level.
NOTE
Area must be determined to be non-hazardous before opening enclosure.
7.2
ENCLOSURE REPLACEMENT
The enclosure should be replaced if the cover threads or conduit threads have been damaged, or if the
enclosure has been damaged sufficiently that it no longer meets the required NEMA classification.
To replace the enclosure follow the transmitter and sensor assembly removal instructions, remove the
damaged enclosure from its conduit, install a new enclosure and continue the transmitter and sensor assembly
replacement instructions.
Figure 7 - 1: Module Components
Page 16 of 35
7.3
TRANSMITTER REPLACEMENT
The transmitter assembly should be replaced when it is determined that it is unreliable, noisy or cannot be
adjusted for calibration. This may occur due to age, corrosion or failed components.
To replace the transmitter assembly:
a. Remove the cover of the main enclosure.
b. Unscrew the two thumb screws in the top of the cover plate, lift the assembly and rotate 90o to relieve the
wiring service loop.
c. Remove the two wires from P1 terminals (see figure 4-3).
d. Unplug the sensor connector from the transmitter.
e. Reverse the preceding steps to install the new transmitter.
f. Restore power and allow a minimum of 30 minutes for stabilization before re-calibration.
7.4
SENSOR REPLACEMENT
NOTE: Refer to Appendix D for information on sensor electrolyte replacement for 4501-25.

the housing. The gas sensor needs replacement when:
 It is no longer possible to obtain correct Zero and Span values.
 The “LOW SENS” message appears after calibration.
 The sensor output signal is noisy, causing erroneous gas level readings.
To replace the sensor:
a. Confirm that system power has been removed.
b. Remove the gas sensor module enclosure cover.
c. Unscrew the two thumb screws in the top of the faceplate, lift the transmitter assembly and rotate 90o to
relieve the wiring service loop.
d. Unplug the sensor connector from the transmitter.

8.4 APPENDIX D: 4501-25 & 4501-26 GAS SENSOR MODULE
1. Calibration of 4501-26 (Follow instructions in Section 6)
2. Calibration of 4501-25 (See below)
3. Equipment Required
The following tools and equipment will be required for calibration:
- Permeation Device Calibrator (Model 9210-00), with
Ammonia Permeation Tube (Model 9211-09).
- Calibration Adapter (Model 5358-01).
4. Permeation Device Calibrator Operation
The calibrator is a portable device with a pump that operates from a 1.5 V
alkaline size D battery. A fresh battery should allow 8 hours of continuous
operation. The permeation device will probably be shipped separately,
usually in a pipe with screw cap ends, one of which will be marked for
opening. The permeation device should come fitted with a scrubber, but, as a
precaution, open the pipe and remove the permeation device in a
well ventilated area.
1. Remove the scrubber from the permeation device and attach the device
to the stainless steel “Tee” assembly inside the calibrator box. Tighten
the connection with a wrench, with the device resting inside one of the
openings in the rack.
Figure 8 - 1: Module
Components
2. Close the door of the calibrator and turn on the pump switch.
3. Set the flow rate for the desired ppm of ammonia. The desired flow rate for calibration of the Model
4501-25 is 300-500 cc/min. and the concentration range should be set between the high alarm point and
100 ppm full scale.
The carrier gas flow rate can be calculated from the formula:
P = (CxF)/K
Where P = the permeation rate in nanograms/min., and C = ppm of span gas, F = carrier gas flow rate in
ml./min. and K = 1.437 for ammonia. The permeation rate for the temperature read on the front of the
calibrator can be obtained from permeation rate vs. temperature chart.
4. Run the gas calibrator for 30 min. before attaching the output hose to the ammonia sensor.
5. When the use of the calibrator is completed, do not turn off the pump unit until the permeation device
has been removed from the “Tee” and the gas scrubber reattached. Failure to remove the permeation
device when the pump has been turned off will contaminate the system with high amounts of the
permeating gas and result in erroneous concentrations. The device, with scrubber, can be stored in the
storage rack overnight, but should not stay in the gas calibrator for longer storage periods.
5. Calibration Procedure
Follow procedures outlined in Section 6.0
Page 24 of 35
Electrolyte/Membrane Replacement (See Fig. 8-2) – Models 4501-25 and 4501-26
The electrolyte needs to be replaced at least every six months, or if there is evidence of low sensor
output. The membrane and O-Ring should be replaced at the same time that the electrolyte is
replaced.
1. Equipment Required

Tweezers to aid in removing and replacing the membrane.
2. Preparation
a. Transfer the necessary electrolyte into a plastic wash bottle.
b. Confirm that system power has been removed.
c. Remove the transmitter electronics board from the main housing and unplug the sensor harness
from the transmitter electronics.
d. Unscrew the sensor assembly from the bottom of the enclosure.
e. Remove the assembly cover from the sensor assembly.
CAUTION: Only remove the sensor cover from the assembly, DO NOT attempt to unscrew the
sensor from the mounting assembly or you could damage the wiring.
3. Electrolyte Replacement (See Fig. 8-1)
a. Invert the sensor assembly so that the membrane is upward.
b. Insert the sensor assembly in a clamp, if available, and unscrew the box nut counterclockwise, and take
out the hold-down ring, membrane and O-Ring. Then pour out the old electrolyte into a beaker for
disposal.
CAUTION: Avoid contact of the electrolyte with skin, eyes and clothing.
immediately - rubber gloves and safety glasses are recommended.
In case of contact wash
c. Clean the electrode with the alcohol wipes included in the electrolyte replacement kit. All oxidation
residue must be removed before re-assembly. When dirt is found inside the sensor assembly, wash the
dirt off with electrolyte.
d. Hold the sensor assembly with the sensing electrode up. Close the pressure compensation port with a
tissue. Pour approximately 10cc of fresh electrolyte from the wash bottle into the sensor, and rinse the
inside of the sensor. Empty the electrolyte into the beaker.
e. Place the O-ring on top of the washer. Then transfer one drop of electrolyte from the plastic wash bottle
to the exposed electrode surface.
f. Place a new membrane into the hold-down ring and carefully place the plastic hold-down ring on top of
the sensor body with the ring ears in the slots of the sensor body. Then fasten the sensor cover over the
assembly.
CAUTION: Never touch the membrane with your hands. Use rubber gloves or tweezers.
g. Invert the sensor so that the membrane is down. If this is the first time that electrolyte has been replace,
there should be a round Mili Seal covering the pressure compensation screw. This Mili-Seal prevented
loss of electrolyte during shipment. Remove and discard the round Mili Seal and remove the screw to
expose the electrolyte supply port.
h. Transfer electrolyte from the plastic wash bottle into the electrolyte supply port (see Fig. 8-1) until the
level is at the maximum level line on the side of the sensor body.

i. Replace the pressure compensation screw into the electrolyte supply port.
j. Replace the sensor housing cover.
k. Install the sensor assembly into the enclosure hub and tighten firmly.
l. Reconnect the sensor harness to the transmitter, carefully install the transmitter into the housing and
restore system power.
m. Recalibrate the transmitter following the instructions in Section 6.
