Description

This section describes the components of the GD-K7D2. The GD-K7D2 consists of three

separate sections: the cover, the detection unit, and the installation bracket. The detection

unit (front section) includes the flow system and gas detection components. The L-shaped

installation bracket (rear section) includes installation components including a terminal

strip, tube fittings and a card edge connector socket.

The detection unit and installation bracket are secured together by a captive screw located

in the bottom right of the detection unit. The detection unit’s main circuit board plugs into

the socket on the installation bracket. The socket is above the terminal strip.

Figure 1: Sections of the GD-K7D2

A hydrophobic sample filter is also provided with the GD-K7D2 for installation near the

sample in fitting. The filter scrubs particulates out of the sample stream and keeps water

and many other liquids from entering the GD-K7D2 flow system.

Cover

The painted steel cover slides over both the detection unit and installation bracket. It is

radio frequency (RF)- and dust-resistant. A thumbscrew on the front of the cover near the

bottom secures the cover to the installation bracket (see Figure 1). The cover includes a

label on the front that indicates the target gas and detection range of the GD-K7D2.

Main Circuit Board

The main circuit board includes the flow light, flow rate pot, ON/OFF switch and fuse.

The end of the board at the rear of the detection unit plugs into a socket on the installation

bracket.

Flow light

The flow light is at the top left corner of the detection unit (see Figure 2 and 3). The green

flow light is on when the GD-K7D2’s flow rate is at an acceptable flow rate. If the flow rate

drops below or rises above the acceptable flow rate, the flow light turns off.

Flow rate pot

The flow rate pot is to the right of the flow light (see Figure 2 and 3). You can adjust the

GD-K7D2’s flow rate with the flow rate pot. The pot is accessible through a hole in the

cover.

ON/OFF switch

The ON/OFF switch is to the right of the flow rate pot (see Figure 3). The On/Off switch

turns the GD-K7D2 on and off. The switch is in the ON position when the toggle switch is

in the right position.

Fuse

A 2 amp, 5 mm x 20 mm fuse is located on the middle left of the main board. It is

accessible by removing four screws that retain a metal cover over the main board.

Flowmeter

The flowmeter is below the flow light (see Figure 2 and 3). A ball in the flowmeter column

indicates the flow rate of the GD-K7D2. Two horizontal lines on the flowmeter mark the

acceptable flow rate for the GD-K7D2. Use the flow rate pot to keep the flowmeter ball

between the two lines. A flow sensor at the bottom of the flowmeter senses when the

flowmeter ball is low enough to be at the bottom of the flowmeter and initiates a low flow

alarm.

Gas Sensor

The gas sensor is below and to the right of the flowmeter (see Figure 3). Through a series

of electrical and chemical reactions, the gas sensor produces an electrical current that is

proportional to the detection range of the target gas in the test sample. Electrodes within

the gas sensor housing are surrounded by liquid electrolyte. The chemical and electrical

reactions are facilitated by the electrolyte.

A sample adapter is attached to the front of the sensor. It directs the sample over a gas

permeable membrane on the front of the sensor and into the sensor.

Amplifier

The amplifier is to the right of the sensor (see Figure 3). The amplifier converts the output

of the sensor to a 4 to 20 mA signal (that is proportional to the detection range of the GD-

K7D2) and transmits the signal to a controller. The amplifier includes the span pot, zero

pot, gain pot, and output check pins.

Span pot

The span pot is at the top of the amplifier. Use the span pot to adjust the GD-K7D2’s

response output during the calibration procedure.

Zero pot

The zero pot is below the span pot. Use the zero pot to adjust the GD-K7D2’s fresh air

Model GD-K7D2 (24 VDC) Sample Draw Transmitter • 5

output during start-up and calibration procedures.

Gain pot

The gain pot is below the zero pot. It is used to make coarse span adjustments. The gain

pot is factory set and for adjustment by a field service technician only.

Another factory adjust pot is located below the gain pot. Do not adjust this pot.

Output check pins

Two output check pins [marked 1 (+) and 2 (-)] are below the pots. Use the output check

pins to read the signal output of the GD-K7D2 with a milliampmeter during the start-up

and calibration procedures.

Pump

The pump is behind the sensor. The pump pulls the test sample into the GD-K7D2. The

pump operates on AC voltage that is generated by the GD-K7D2 from the 24 VDC input

power.

Lithium Battery Pack

A 3.6 volt lithium battery pack is above the pump on the right side of the GD-K7D2. The

lithium battery pack maintains a bias voltage on the gas sensor when the GD-K7D2 is not

receiving incoming power, such as during shipment or storage. If the GD-K7D2 is off

power for an extended period and the lithium battery pack is dead, the gas sensor

operation will be affected when the GD-K7D2 is started up. See Storing the GD-K7D2 in

the Maintenance section for battery pack replacement recommendations.

Installation Bracket

The L-shaped installation bracket facilitates mounting and wiring of the GD-K7D2. The

three mounting holes on the back of the bracket are used to mount it to a vertical surface.

The installation bracket includes the socket, external wiring terminal strip, cable bushing,

and sample fittings.

Socket

A card edge connector socket on the back of the bracket mates with the main circuit board

on the detection unit.

External Wiring Terminal Strip

A seven point terminal strip is located below the socket and used for wiring the GD-K7D2

to a controller.

A jumper is normally factory installed between the second and third terminals from the

right. This jumper is installed when the GD-K7D2 is used with a controller that does not

have a flow alarm circuit and flow alarm terminals for wiring to the GD-K7D2. It is not

installed when the GD-K7D2 is used with a controller that has flow alarm circuitry and

flow alarm terminals. See Wiring the GD-K7D2 to a Controller in the Installation section

for both types of wiring.

Cable Bushing

The 1/2 in. (1.25 cm) cable bushing on the bottom of the bracket allows you to route

wiring from a controller to the seven point external wiring terminal strip on the back of

the bracket.

Gas In & Gas Out Sample Fittings

There are two tube fittings on the bottom of the bracket, the gas in and gas out sample

fittings. The gas in fitting is forward of the gas out fitting. The gas in fitting allows sample

to enter the GD-K7D2 and the gas out fitting is for exhausting the sample. Both fittings

accept 6 mm O.D. x 4 mm I.D. Teflon PTFE tubing.
