Product description
E2618 series transmitters belong to the PluraSens®family of multifunctional measurement
instruments. The instruments utilize gas sensors of various types with excellent
repeatability, stability, and long lifetime.
E2618 series provide two independent analog outputs OUT1 and OUT2, user-selectable to
4-20 mA or 0-10 V, proportional to the chosen scale for gas concentration. RS485 Modbus
RTU digital communication interface allows easy instrument configuration and integration
into various automation systems.
Remote probe and duct mount versions are available.
The version of your transmitter is marked on the package. If the
⚠
symbol is marked on
the product, consult the documentation for further information.
Safety requirements
Misuse will impair the protection of the product. Always adhere to the safety provisions
applicable in the country of use.
Do not perform any maintenance operation with the power on. Do not let water or foreign
objects inside the device.
Removal of the PCB from the enclosure voids the warranty. Do not touch the electronic
components directly, as they are sensitive to static electricity.
Connection diagrams can be found in the electrical connections section. The device might
not perform correctly or be damaged if the wrong power supply is connected.
External circuits connected to the equipment should have sufficient insulation rating
according to the environmental conditions and equipment power.
A disconnecting device that is marked as such and easily accessible should be included in
the installation of this product.
Operating conditions
The device should be used both in a non-hazardous area and in a basic electromagnetic
environment, where the latter is defined in EN 61326-1. Avoid strong mechanical shock and
vibrations. Avoid corrosive atmosphere and areas highly contaminated with dust, oil mist,
etc. Keep the instrument away from direct sunlight. A sudden temperature or humidity
change might affect the sensitivity of the sensor.

Installation guidelines
Before proceeding with the installation it is mandatory to read the Safety requirements
section and make sure to comply with all listed instructions. Installation standards EN
60079-29-2 and EN 45544-4 are also recommended for further instructions and related
information about the installation. During the installation of the transmitter the following
points must be considered:
●Application (air quality control or leakage detection.)
●Properties of the space under investigation (room geometry, direction, and
velocity of airflows, etc.),
●Sulfur dioxide is considerably heavier than air; the recommended location for the
sensor is near the floor or leakage or formation source.
●The device should be accessible for maintenance and repair.
The aforementioned conditions above will affect the coverage area of the device. however,
the coverage area for a transmitter is usually between 2.5 to 5 meters radius.
For early leakage detection install the sensor as close as possible to the potential leakage
sources (flanges, valves, pressure reducers, pumps, etc.), taking into consideration other
points listed above.
For general area monitoring without definite leakage sources, the transmitters should be
distributed evenly in the room.
For personal safety control, the transmitters are installed in the breathing zone (at the
height of the head of people or animals). The recommended sensor position is vertical,
pointing downwards.
Wall mount version
Unscrew four lid screws and detach the lid from the transmitter. Attach the device to a wall
with screws passing through mounting holes (for dimensions see the drawing in the next
section).
Duct mount version
Cut a hole with a diameter of 36...45 mm in the air duct at the chosen mounting place.
Place the rubber flange aligning the holes in the flange and the air-duct and fix the flange
with four self-tapping screws. Pass the sensor probe through the flange and adjust it to the
appropriate depth. Unscrew four lid screws and detach the lid from the transmitter.

Sensor probe handling
The wall mount version of the transmitter is available with a remote probe (see drawing
below for dimensions). The remote probe is connected to the main unit with a shielded
cable. The default remote probe cable length is 3 m.
A) Wall mount remote probe with fixing clamp (default version),
B) Remote probe with rubber flange and three self-tapping screws (on request)
The sensor probes of all types are equipped with a hydrophobic microporous PTFE filter to
protect the sensor from dust, dirt, and water drops. The filter should be replaced if it gets
strongly contaminated. To replace the PTFE filter, unscrew sensor head cap and remove
the old filter. Place a new filter into the cap and tighten it again.
NOTE! Never stab or press the filter near its center where the sensor is located since this
may damage the sensor. Do not remove the filter as it may cause the device to show
incorrect values and/or break the sensor.
The recommended orientation of the sensor probe is vertical with the sensor tip pointing
downwards. This prevents the possible accumulation of condensed water on the sensor
protection filter.
Gas sensor replacement procedures
1. Remove the sensor head cap from the device,
2. Remove the PTFE filter (if it is not removed within the cap),
3. Remove the O-ring rubber,
4. Detach the electrochemical sensor from the device,
5. Insert the new electrochemical sensor inside,
6. Put back the O-ring rubber, PTFE filter, and the head cap, respectively.

Electrical connections
Unscrew four lid screws and detach the lid from the device. Use the M16 cable gland to let
in cables of the power supply and of the external devices. Attach the power cable to the
device without turning it on. Using the connection diagram below, connect the analog
outputs and digital interface terminals to the relevant devices according to your tasks.

The screwless quick connect spring terminals on the E2618 series devices are suitable for
a wide range of wires with a cross-section of 0.2...1.5 mm2. We recommend stripping the
wire end by 8...9 mm and using wire end sleeves.
To connect the wire, insert the wire end into the terminal hole. To disconnect, push the
spring-loaded terminal lever, pull the wire out, and release the lever.
Use a twisted-pair cable, e.g. LiYY TP 2×2×0.5 mm2or CAT 5, to connect the device to the
RS485 network. A and B on the device represent DATA+ and DATA- respectively, polarity
must be respected when connecting to an external RS485 network.
Both analog outputs can be independently changed between 4-20 mA and 0-10 V type
using jumpers J1 (OUT1) and J2 (OUT2). By closing pins on a specific jumper the related
output is 0-10 V, with an open jumper the output is 4-20 mA. Power restart is required after
changing the position of the jumpers.
