Macurco TXP-T40 Mounting Examples
This document outlines various mounting configurations for the Macurco TXP-T40 Gas Detection system, showcasing different sensor and remote housing setups suitable for C1D1 and C1D2 hazardous locations.
Top Configuration Examples (C1D1 Hazardous Locations)
The following examples illustrate mounting scenarios for C1D1 classified areas, demonstrating integral and non-integral housing setups with varying numbers of remote sensors.
Example 1: Single Integral, C1D1 Breathing Zone
Features a single integral housing with a sensor positioned in the breathing zone.
Configuration: Integral housing, sensor in breathing zone.
Example 2: Dual Integral, C1D1 Breathing Zone
Features dual integral housings, both with sensors in the breathing zone.
Configuration: Dual integral housings, sensors in breathing zone.
Example 3: Non-Integral with Two Remotes, C1D1 High & Low
Features a non-integral housing connected to two remote sensor housings, one positioned for high gas detection and the other for low.
Configuration: Non-integral housing, two remote housings (high and low detection zones).
Example 4: Single Integral with One Remote, C1D1 Breathing Zone & High
Features a single integral housing and one remote sensor housing, with the remote sensor positioned for high gas detection.
Configuration: Single integral housing, one remote housing (high detection zone).
Example 5: Single Integral with One Remote, C1D1 Breathing Zone & Low
Features a single integral housing and one remote sensor housing, with the remote sensor positioned for low gas detection.
Configuration: Single integral housing, one remote housing (low detection zone).
Example 6: Single Integral, C1D1 Low
Features a single integral housing with a sensor positioned for low gas detection.
Configuration: Integral housing, sensor for low detection.
Notes for Top Configurations:
- Various detector and remote housing materials (aluminum, poly, stainless steel) can be interchanged.
- Remote housings can be located hundreds of feet from the detector. Examples show typical mounting heights for clarity.
- Power and Modbus RTU cabling is typically run in 3/4" conduit.
- Calibration tubing should be connected to a splash guard and run to the TXP-T40, with 1/4" ID Teflon tubing recommended. Cap tubing when not in use.
Bottom Configuration Examples (C1D2 Hazardous Locations)
The following examples illustrate mounting scenarios for C1D2 classified areas, demonstrating integral and non-integral housing setups with different sensor and remote configurations.
Example 7: Single Integral, C1D2 High
Features a single integral housing with a sensor positioned for high gas detection in a C1D2 area.
Configuration: Integral housing, sensor for high detection (C1D2).
Example 8: Dual Integral, C1D1 Low
Features dual integral housings, both with sensors positioned for low gas detection in a C1D1 area.
Configuration: Dual integral housings, sensors for low detection (C1D1).
Example 9: Non-Integral with Two Remotes, C1D1 High, C1D2 Low
Features a non-integral housing connected to two remote sensor housings, one for high detection in a C1D1 area and the other for low detection in a C1D2 area.
Configuration: Non-integral housing, two remote housings (C1D1 high, C1D2 low).
Example 10: Non-Integral with Two Remotes, C1D2 High
Features a non-integral housing connected to two remote sensor housings, both positioned for high gas detection in C1D2 areas.
Configuration: Non-integral housing, two remote housings (C1D2 high).
Example 11: Non-Integral with Two Remotes, C1D2 Low
Features a non-integral housing connected to two remote sensor housings, both positioned for low gas detection in C1D2 areas.
Configuration: Non-integral housing, two remote housings (C1D2 low).
Example 12: Single Integral with One Remote, C1D2 High
Features a single integral housing and one remote sensor housing, with the remote sensor positioned for high gas detection in a C1D2 area. The remote sensor is shown mounted below floor level.
Configuration: Single integral housing, one remote housing (C1D2 high), remote sensor below floor level.
Notes for Bottom Configurations:
- Not all possible combinations are shown. Consult a qualified TracXP representative for assistance with specific setup designs.
