Congratulations on purchasing the Xnx Universal Transmitter! This quick start guide will help you get started with your new device.
If the ambient air contains background target gas, connect a cylinder of zero air (or pure nitrogen) to the sensor weather protection cap at a regulated flow rate of 300 to 500 mL/min. Wait for the display reading to stabilize. Ensure the sensor is not exposed to extreme
If you read the XNX guide, you’ll see constant references to the "4-20mA loop." In an age of Wi-Fi, 5G, and Bluetooth, it seems archaic that industrial plants still rely on a simple electrical current to transmit data.
For rapid setup of gas detection with Xnx (HART/analog/modbus versions).
: Install the housing with the main sensor port pointing downward to prevent water or dust accumulation on the sensor element. User Interface and Navigation Before leaving the site,
The XNX transmitter features an explosion-proof enclosure. Accessing the internal terminals requires removing the front threaded cover.
