Introducció
The Instrukart BH-60 Fixed Hexane Detector is designed for the continuous monitoring of Hexane gas, toxic gases, and other harmful gases in industrial environments, particularly in oil plants. This device features a display for real-time gas concentration readings. Upon detecting gas levels exceeding predefined setpoints, the BH-60 activates audible and visual alarms, prompting users to implement safety protocols to prevent potential explosions or poisoning incidents.
Key features of the BH-60 Hexane Detector include:
- Stable signal transmission, ensuring reliable data.
- High precision for accurate gas concentration measurements.
- Rapid response time to gas presence.
- Long operational life and short polarization time for the industrial-grade sensor.
- Explosion-proof structure design for enhanced safety in hazardous areas.
- Compatibility with 4-20mA standard signals for integration into Distributed Control Systems (DCS).
- Suitable for various industries including metallurgical, petroleum, chemical, and municipal sectors.

Configuració
Proper installation is crucial for the accurate and safe operation of the BH-60 detector. Consult local electrical codes and safety regulations before installation.
- Lloc de muntatge: Select a mounting location where the target gas is most likely to accumulate. For Hexane, which is heavier than air, mount the detector closer to the ground. Ensure the location is free from excessive vibration, direct sunlight, and extreme temperatures.
- Muntatge segur: Use appropriate hardware to securely mount the detector to a stable surface. The device features mounting brackets for this purpose.
- Cablejat:
- Ensure power is disconnected before wiring.
- Connect the power supply (Corded Electric) according to the wiring diagram provided in the full technical manual.
- If integrating with a control system, connect the 4-20mA output signal wires to the designated input terminals of your DCS or PLC.
- Ensure all connections are tight and properly insulated to maintain the explosion-proof integrity.
- Engegada inicial: After all connections are secure, apply power to the detector. The device will undergo a self-test sequence. Allow a warm-up period (typically a few minutes) for the sensor to stabilize before expecting accurate readings.
- Verificació: Observe the display for initial readings. If an alarm sounds immediately, ensure the area is clear of gas and recheck connections.

Instruccions de funcionament
The BH-60 operates continuously once powered on. Understanding its indications is key to effective monitoring.
Mostra les lectures
- The digital display shows the current gas concentration in %VOL (percentage by volume).
- Under normal conditions, the reading should be near zero or within safe limits.
Funcions d'alarma
The detector is equipped with configurable alarm setpoints. When gas concentration exceeds these thresholds, the following occurs:
- Alarma sonora: A distinct sound will be emitted from the device.
- Alarma visual: The red alarm light on the side of the unit will illuminate and/or flash.
- Sortida del senyal: The 4-20mA output signal will change, indicating an alarm condition to the connected control system.
Action upon Alarm: Immediately follow your facility's safety protocols for gas detection alarms. This typically involves evacuating the area, identifying the source of the leak, and initiating corrective measures.

Manteniment
Regular maintenance ensures the continued accuracy and reliability of your BH-60 detector.
- Inspecció de rutina: Periodically inspect the detector for any physical damage, corrosion, or blockages to the sensor inlet. Keep the display clean for clear visibility.
- Calibració: Gas detectors require regular calibration to maintain accuracy. Refer to the full technical manual for detailed calibration procedures. It is recommended to calibrate the device at least once every 6-12 months, or as required by local regulations and operational conditions. Use certified calibration gases.
- Substitució del sensor: The sensor has a finite lifespan. If the detector consistently provides inaccurate readings, fails calibration, or indicates a sensor fault, the sensor may need replacement. Contact Instrukart support for sensor replacement services or guidance.
- Neteja: Netegeu l'exterior del detector amb un drap suau iamp drap. No utilitzeu productes de neteja abrasius ni dissolvents, ja que poden danyar el casing or sensor.
Resolució de problemes
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with the BH-60 detector.
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| Sense pantalla/Sense alimentació | Power supply disconnected or faulty. | Check power connections. Ensure the power source is active. Verify power cable integrity. |
| Constant alarm (no gas present) | Sensor fault, calibration issue, or environmental interference. | Perform a fresh air calibration. If the problem persists, the sensor may be faulty or require professional service. |
| Lectures inexactes | Sensor contamination, expired sensor, or calibration drift. | Clean the sensor inlet. Perform calibration. If issues persist, consider sensor replacement. |
| No alarm when gas is present | Alarm setpoints too high, faulty alarm components, or sensor failure. | Verify alarm setpoints. Test alarm functionality (if applicable). Check sensor status. Contact support if necessary. |
