Introduction

The Flammable Gas Detection System supplied to JOC INTERNATIONAL consists


of a 3 point TQ 4400 Pump Room Gas Detection Systems for monitoring flammable,
Toxic and oxygen levels in pump room areas. The Sampling Unit supplied has a
separate control set up box responsible to alter key parameters such as calibration,
dwell times, alarm settings and other, before any changes decided to be applied the
operator must first have carefully understood it is operation. Special Caution is to be
applied when handling the set-up box parameters and technician mode*. Alarm
settings and other; before any changes decided to be applied the operator must again
first have carefully understood it is operation. Otherwise it may prevent the unit from
it is designed operation.

1. INTRODUCTION
The TQ4400 Pump room sampling system is a multipoint, sequential, aspirated, gas
sampling system. The System is designed to meet with IMO / SOLAS requirements,
and comply with classification rules for monitoring Void Spaces on board Gas
Carriers and Oil & Gas Tankers, in areas adjacent to the cargo areas.
The TQ4400 Pump room sampling system extracts a gas sample from a desired
location, via transport lines to an analysing unit where the sample is monitored for
Flammable, Toxic and Oxygen gases. The TQ4400 in its usual form uses fixed
gas sensor heads to constantly monitor gases in conjunction with solenoids and a
pump to make this into a cost effective sampling system.
** The TQ4400 Pump room sampling system should not be regarded as a primary
unit for the safety of the personnel within the Pump room. Portable personal hand
held devices are recommended as primary protection for personnel in confined spaces.
**
The number of locations for a TQ4400 is restricted to 8. Any more, then the TQ 4400
Ballast tank monitoring system should be used
Typical explosive and toxic gas sensors, which can be installed within the TQ4400,
can be seen in table 1, (other gases are available on request.)

Table 1

The TQ4400 is capable of providing individual low and high alarm outputs for
each Gas sensor installed and corresponding alarm relays. This can provide an
interface with alarm management systems, remote mimic panels, and audible / visual
warning devices.
The TQ4400 Unit is mounted within the cabinet. The operator interface is via four
push buttons and a backlit LCD. During normal operation the LCD display will
provide the gas type and sample concentration for each individual location.

2. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The TQ4400 Pump room sampling system standard Analysing Unit is housed in a
wall-mounted enclosure complete with front panel Display Unit. The enclosure
contains all electrical, electronic and pneumatic equipment required to monitor,
display, control and provide alarm outputs for the relevant locations.
The TQ4400 Pump room sampling system is divided into the following main

Technical Specification
2.1

Pneumatics

Every Sample Line from the relevant location is firstly connected to its
respective external Shut-off Valve to provide sample line isolation. The
sample then passes through a flame arrestor mounted externally on the bottom
of the cabinet, and into the Analyser Unit.
The typical Analysing Unit contains the following pneumatic devices:
i
i
i
i
i

Solenoid Valves
Particulate Filter
Pump
Flow Detector
Leak Detection

2.1.1 The Solenoid Valves are mounted singularly on the back panel of the
cabinet. Each solenoid is then individually plumbed to the gland plate
where they are fitted with a deflagration flame arrestor from which the
sample line can be connected.
Connected to each solenoid is a timer relay the time set on this relay
governs the sample time. Each timer will then trigger the subsequent timer
on completion of sample, therefore resulting in a sequential sample
Each valve is complete with a 24V D.C. coil, and connection to each coil
is via a 3 pole connector containing an LED and snubbing diode.
2.1.2 The Particulate Filter is fitted with a micro-fibre filter element, which
cannot be cleaned and therefore must be replaced when it is suspected of
reducing air flow. This unit is also fitted with a poly-carbonate bowl to
allow visual inspection of the filter element. Spare filter elements can be
supplied, refer to Section 8 for Part numbers.
Filename: Technical Manual

Page 7 of 51

2.1.3 The Pump is an Industrial type to ensure adequate flow rates for the
larger installations. As an example on transport tube dimensions of
4.0mm I/D, flow rates in excess of 4 litres/min. are achievable for sample
line lengths up to 300 metres. Based on these figures, sample times for a
300 metre sample line will be in the order of 1 minute, providing sharp
bends and fittings are kept to a minimum. A Pump Service Kit can be
supplied refer to Section 8 for Part numbers
2.1.4 The Flow Meter is fitted in the sample flow line to indicate airflow to the
sensors and works in conjunction with the Sample by-pass needle valve.
The steel float, sensing ring and control relay, are all part of the flow fail
device. If the float passes down through the sensor a Low Flow signal is
sent to its control relay. When flow returns the float will raise back
through the sensor and the signal to its control relay will revert to normal.
2.1.5 A Leak Detection System is incorporated within the TQ4400 Analyser
enclosure and monitors for any accumulation of flammable gases within
the enclosure. This system utilises a TQ122 catalytic flammable gas
detector fitted in the top of the enclosure, which is connected to a
TQ126F controller fitted in the Power Supply Change-over Unit.
If the gas concentration within the enclosure exceeds 30% LEL the Power
Supply Change-over Unit will disconnect the power supply to the
TQ4400 Analysing Unit. The power supply cannot be re-connected until
the gas concentration has fallen below the alarm level and a manual reset
at the Power Supply Change-over Unit has been carried out.
2.1.6 Sample Line Equipment is optionally available in several forms to suit
the sample location.
x End of Line filters for Dry areas,
x In-line filter (where an End of line filter is not practical)
There are two types of End of Line Filters. See section 5.4 & 5.5
x
x

A fibre element type where the filter element has to be replaced


periodically.
A stainless steel type where the filter element can be cleaned.

Both of the above filters are supplied with dual compression fittings to
suit pipe sizes 6 or 8mm O/D, in either brass or stainless steel. It is
advisable to protect the Filter when installed in a location where damage
may occur.
The In-Line Filter is a stainless steel unit that is suitable for attaching to
a stop-valve when fitted in a stop valve box or can be fitted to the line in a
serviceable location. It is advisable to remove the In-Line Filter complete
for cleaning, as splitting the filter in situ may damage the threads.

2.2. Sensors
There are two type of sensors, the infrared type, for flammable gases, or the
electro-chemical type for Toxic and Oxygen gases. When a system comprises
of more than one sensor, they are connected in series in the sample line which
then is vented out from the enclosure through a flame arrestor.
2.2.1 Infrared Sensor (GD 129NI)
The operation of the infrared sensor within the TQ4400 Pump room
sampling system is to measure the absorption of infra red light by a target
hydrocarbon gas and converting that absorption to an electronic signal.
The infrared sensor is now packaged as a GD-129 stand-alone unit within
the TQ4400 and provides a 4-20mA signal for their respective target gas
concentrations.
Part Number for the GD129 for 0-100%LEL METHANE is 340-020
2.2.2 Electro-chemical Type.
These sensors typically monitor for Oxygen and Toxic gases and because
of their properties have a life span of approximately 1-2 years depending
on conditions.
The Electrochemical types, as with the Infrared sensor, provide a 4-20mA
signal for their respective gas concentrations.
Part Number for the TQ123 for 0-25%VOL OXYGEN is 123-531
Part Number for the TQ123 for 0-50PPM H2S is 123-251

OPERATION
This section explains in detail the TQ4400 system operation and typical alarm
conditions.
3.1

System Start-up

When power is applied to the system, the display will indicate System Set-up
mode, as below

SYSTEM SETUP
PLEASE WAIT

The system will stay in this mode for approximately 150 seconds.
3.2

Normal Operation

After the start-up delay the system will enter the normal operating mode.

CHAN 1
METHANE 00015%LEL

The top line of the display shows the channel location and the bottom line of
the display will show the gas sensor name, concentration of the gas, and the
units of the gas being analysed. The system will sequentially sample all of the
channel locations, displaying the appropriate data on the LCD.

Filename: Technical Manual

3.3

Panel Controls

ACK- Acknowledge alarm. This button allows the user to accept the gas
alarm, mute buzzer and to visualise further sampling. See section 3.4.2
(Except fault & flow fail)
RESET- Reset alarm. This button allows the user to reset the gas alarm, mute
buzzer and to continue sampling; it will reset any cleared faults also. See
section 3.4
HOLD-Hold Channel. See Section 3.3.2 below
SKIP-Skip Channel. See Section 3.3.2 below
At any time during the normal operating mode, the user has the option to
GOTO, Hold or Skip a channel. These functions are invoked by pressing
down the relevant push button, and are discussed further below:
3.3.1 GOTO Channel
The user may press down and hold the RESET and HOLD button until the
display reads GOTO, the user must then release the RESET and HOLD
button. You can then select which sample location to GOTO by using
ACK to go up and RESET to go down through the sample locations.
Pressing Hold selects the desired channel.
Once the unit is sampling from the desired location you can then either
HOLD, SKIP or Reverse Purge the location.
3.3.2 Hold Channel
The user may press down and hold the HOLD button until the display
reads HOLD CHANNEL, the user must then release the HOLD button.

CHAN 1
HOLD CHANNEL

This will invoke the Hold Channel function. The current Channel location
will be continuously sampled for a maximum period of 20 minutes after
which time the system will revert to sequential sampling. At any time the
user may release the channel and enable the system to revert back to
sequential sampling.
This is achieved by pressing down and holding the HOLD button until the
display reads RELEASE CHANNEL, the user must then release the HOLD
button.

TQ Environmental Plc

CHAN 1
RELEASE CHANNEL

3.3.3 Skip Channel


The user may press down and hold the SKIP button until the display reads
SKIP MODE, the user must then release the SKIP button.

CHAN 1
SKIP MODE

This will invoke the Skip Channel function. The current channel location
will be skipped when the system is sequentially sampling the channel
locations. When the system returns to the skipped channel, the LCD will
display SKIP MODE for 5 seconds and then proceed to the next sequential
channel. When the LCD displays SKIP MODE the user may revoke the
skip command by pressing down and holding the SKIP button until the
display reads NORMAL MODE, the user must then release the SKIP
button.

CHAN 1
NORMAL MODE

3.3.4 Manual Global Reverse Purge.


The user may press down and hold the ACK and RESET buttons until the
display reads GLOBAL REVERSE PURGE followed by REVERSE
PURGE. This initiates a global reverse purge where air is blown down
every sample line for a set period of time. The purge duration is factory
set and a Button box is required to be interfaced to the controller BTC
board to change the value.
After the system has finished purging it will revert back to sampling.
Filename: Technical Manual

Page 17 of 51

3.3.5 Manual Individual Reverse Purge.


In order to reverse purge an individual sample location you initially have
to GOTO the desired location, refer to section 3.3.1.
Once the system is sampling from the required location you can then
purge the sample line by pressing and holding the ACK and HOLD button
until the display reads REVERSE PURGE. This will purge the line for the
set duration, once completed revert back to sampling.
3.3.6 Automatic Global Reverse Purge.
This is a reverse purge, for all sample points, which automatically initiates
after a set number of complete cycles of sample points. We recommend
this function to be enabled for an analyser unit which draws samples from
points where water can be found, such as ballast tanks. The purge
frequency is factory set and can only be altered using a button box being
interfaced with the controller BTC board. The box can be obtained by
contacting TQ.
3.4

Alarm Conditions

3.4.1 Fault Conditions


There are three possible fault conditions: Sensor Fault, Flow Fail and
Comms Failure.
3.4.1.1 Sensor Fault
The sensor will be in fault if the milliamp value output of the sensor falls
below a set value. When this occurs the LCD will display SENSOR
FAULT, the System Healthy LED will extinguish and the Fault relay will
be activated.

SENSOR FAULT

To clear the Fault condition repair or replace sensor and press and hold
the RESET button until the display reads RESET ALARM. At the same
time, the System Healthy led will illuminate and the Fault relay will be
de-activated.
3.4.1.2

Flow fail

The Flow Fail will occur if the pressure through the system drops to a set
value. When this occurs the LCD will display FLOW FAIL, the System
Healthy led will extinguish and the Fault relay will be activated.

Page 18 of 51

Filename: Technical Manual

TQ Environmental Plc

FLOW FAIL

To clear the Fault condition press clear blockage or SKIP the channel,
then hold the RESET button until the display reads RESET ALARM. At
the same time, the System Healthy led will illuminate and the Fault relay
will be de-activated. The alarm will not clear until the system has flow
again, it may require re-booting to allow user to SKIP the problem
channel.

RESET ALARMS

3.4.1.3 Communications Failure


A Comms Failure will initiate when communications are interrupted for
more than 2 minutes between the Display BTC PCB and the Control BTC
PCB.

COMMS FAILURE

This cannot be reset by the RESET button; the panel has to be opened and
powered down and back up again. However it is preferred to do this from
the power supply changeover unit.
3.4.2 Concentration Alarms
There are two alarms on the system, a low level alarm, ALARM 1, and a
high level alarm, ALARM 2. When the gas concentration exceeds the set
levels, the appropriate alarms will be activated, and operate the
appropriate LEDs and alarm relays. The LCD will display the first
channel to be in alarm, together with the sensor gas type and relevant
alarm condition. The system will continue to sample the channels
sequentially.

Filename: Technical Manual

Page 19 of 51

CHAN 1
METHANE LOW ALARM

CHAN 1
METHANE HI ALARM
The user may reset the alarmed channel by pressing the RESET button. At
which point the alarms for that channel will be cleared. If there are any
pending alarms then the LCD will display the next alarmed channel
information. The user must again press the RESET button to clear that
particular alarm. When no more alarms are present, the system will
display the concentration as normal.
The user may press the Ack button to clear the audible buzzer (if fitted).
This will acknowledge the alarmed channel and display ALARM
ACKNOWLEDGED on the LCD.

CHAN 1
ACKNOWLEDGED ALARM

If there is a pending alarm the LCD will display the pending alarm
information. When all alarmed channels have been acknowledged, the
system will display the gas concentration sequentially, but will also
display ALARM ACKNOWLEDGED on the LCD for 5 seconds. To deactivate the alarm relays the user must use the RESET function as
described above.

RESET ALARMS
Each alarm is then reset on a channel per channel basis, i.e. if a particular
channel is in alarm then another channel comes into alarm, then the first
channel requires one reset and a second reset clears the next set of alarms
in the second channel.

with Zero gas then the sensor would be assumed faulty.- *

SELECT SENSOR
FLAMMABLE

With the correct sensor selected the 1st sample solenoid will open and user
should apply calibration gas to the sensor via the calibration port or 3 way
valve or direct into the sensor head. (Oxygen Sensors usually require a
normal clean sample and dont require the next 3 steps)
i) Apply gas to the calibration port or to the port on the provided 3 way
valve.
ii) Turn on the gas bottle. Gas should be regulated to between 1 and 2 LPM.
iii) Turn the 3 way Valve handle 180o.
The gas concentration on the LCD will start to change after a few seconds.
If the concentration does not move then the sensor may need replacement.
Test electrically by placing voltmeter positive probe on clear (GD129) or
yellow (TQ122) wire from sensor and negative probe on Zero volts any
black wire. 0.88-0.91VDC will be a zero reading for the sensor and this will
rise up to 4.8volts for the full range of the sensor, typically with respect to
4-20mA.
When gas concentration reading stops changing e.g. when the gas
concentration reading has settled, accept the reading by pressing the
SELECT button.
* NOTE When calibrating oxygen at 21% and a normal sample is used
for calibration please wait at least 60 seconds, as the sensor will usually
initially show over 25% and will take time to adjust for pressure differences
when the 1st sample solenoid opens.

* - NOTE - If the user enters the Calibrate Sensor Menu again for the same
sensor then the system will always display its original default calibration
setting, not the new value recently adjusted. - *
H2S sensors can take a very long time to return to zero, this is due to the
gas sticking to the lining of the system pipe work. If system shows 1 2
PPM please allow a few days for it to fully return to zero.

INSTALLATION
NOTE: TQ Environmental Plc gives the recommendations in this section with
respect to the correct installation of the TQ4400 Pump room sampling
system. However, it is also essential that the relevant Classification Society
rules and regulations with regard to each individual installation be complied
with.
5.1

TQ4400 Analysing Unit

The TQ4400 Analysing Unit is designed to be fixed to a rigid bulkhead via 4 x


8mm mounting brackets on the rear of the enclosure
As this unit contains sensitive electronics and instrumentation it is
recommended that the unit is installed in a relatively stable environment,
where vibration is at a minimum and must not be installed near high voltage
equipment.
5.2

Power Supply Change over Unit

It is recommended that this unit be mounted adjacent to the Analysing Unit for
ease of connection and to keep cable runs to a minimum. Again the unit is
designed to be fixed to a rigid bulkhead via 4 x 8mm mounting brackets on the
rear of the enclosure, refer to Fig 3, page 9.
Again as this unit contains sophisticated electronics it is recommended that it
be installed in a relatively stable environment and kept away from high
voltage equipment.
5.3

Manual Shut Off Valves

The Shut Off Valves must be installed in each of the sample lines in order to
comply with classification society regulations.
These valves enable sample lines to be isolated, which will be required if a
particular sample line is damaged, in order to prevent flammable gas being
pumped in to a safe area. These valves are required to be installed in the safe
area as close to the accommodation bulkhead as possible.
TQ Environmental can supply a weld tube assembly (length to suit
application) to ease valve mounting. This assembly provides a gas tight
penetration when welded to the bulkhead and enables mounting of valves as
close to the bulkhead as possible.

End of Line filters

When sample lines are installed in void spaces it is recommended that end of line
particulate filters are fitted to prevent dust particles/debris from being sucked into
the system.
The filter assembly can be supplied by TQ Environmental Plc as an optional extra
and is very light weight approximately 0.05 kg and can hence be satisfactorily
supported by the P clip arrangement shown in Fig. 7, when attached to a suitable
bracket via an M5 screw.
Please note end of line filters are only suitable for use in dry areas and must be
installed in an accessible position for ease of service.

5.5

In-Line Filters

When sample lines are installed in void spaces and the end of the sample line
is not readily accessible it is recommended that an in-line filter be used.
This has the same function as the end of line filter i.e. to remove dust/debris.
However, this filter is installed directly in the sample line by means of two
compression fittings, which match the size of the sample lines used, refer to
fig 8.
Again as with end of line filters in-line filters are only suitable for use in dry
areas and must be installed in accessible position for ease of service.

5.6

Sample Lines

Sample lines from point of connection at the analysing unit to point of sample
should be as straight as possible and U-bends should be kept to a minimum.
The sample lines between the bulkhead shut off valves and the analysing unit
should be free of detachable connections except for the connection points for
the shut off valves at the bulkhead and the analysing unit and should be routed
the shortest way possible. If sample lines between the shut of valve and the
analysing unit have to be joined, welded connections should be used.
Sample lines should not be run through gas safe spaces except for the section
from where they penetrate the accommodation bulkhead to the point where
they attach to the analysing unit.
Where sample lines penetrate the accommodation bulkhead i.e. break a
safe/hazardous area division the penetration should be of an approved type and
be of the same integrity as the division penetrated. (See Section 5.3).
Vent and lines are to be vented to atmosphere in a safe area away from
ignition sources and the area within 3m of the outlets is to be considered as a
hazardous location.
After all sample, vent and drain lines are installed it is vitally important to test
for leaks and blockages. Applying compressed air at the start of the line and
Filename: Technical Manual

Page 43 of 51

ensuring that airflows from the end of the line identify blockages. Leaks are
identified by blocking one end of the line and applying compressed air with a
pressure of 5-6 bar, hold the pressure in the line and monitor for pressure
drops, there should be no drop over one minute.
Ensure that all Sample Lines are connected to the Analysing Unit on the
correct ports, in order to eliminate the possibility of crossed lines.

COMMISSIONING
It is strongly advised that a TQ Environmental Approved Engineer carries out
the commissioning. The system is fully tested and known to be operational
when it leaves the factory, however the ultimate performance of the system in
the field depends heavily on the final commissioning. If persons not approved
by TQ Environmental carry out the commissioning incorrectly, TQ
Environmental cannot and will not accept any responsibility for the systems
performance in the field.
As the system is a very important safety feature that contributes to the safe
running of hazardous cargo carrying vessel, TQ Environmental urge that the
above comments are understood.
To aid commissioning it is essential to have a good understanding of how the
system operates, therefore please read all sections of this manual before
commencing.
This section repeatedly references the system drawings; these drawings are
project specific and no two sets are the same. Please ensure that the correct
drawings are available.
6.1

Installation.

6.1.1
Ensure that all points detailed in section 5 are completed; pay
particular attention to the points dedicated to sample lines.
Only when section 5 has been completed can the commissioning proceed.
6.2
x

System Power Up.


Check all system wiring is as per the system drawings.

x Check that the voltage to the system corresponds to the voltage stated in
the system drawings.
x The system can be Powered up for testing only when the two above
points have been completed.
x Check with the ships staff that the areas to be sampled are clear of any
usual vapours that can trigger an alarm.
x Apply power to the system via the power supply change over unit. Fault
alarms may occur after system boot up, this is due to the time taken by some
sensors to warm up.

6.3

Setting the Flow Rate

The flow rate has been factory set to its maximum potential, however if the
flow indicator has stopped rotating then the calibration valve is set to the
wrong position.
6.4

Sample Location Set-Up Test

This section gives details on how to set the individual sample locations dwell
time, this is the time taken to transport a sample gas from a sample location
and analyse it accurately.
Whilst this test is carried out, it is possible to test the sample lines for
blockages or leaks. Appendix A can be used to record the test results.
Equipment needed:

2 * 2 way radio.
A team of 2 or more persons.
Butane lighter (with flint removed).

6.4.1 One person is required to be present at the sample location to be tested


with the gas lighter, and one at the control panel. Both persons are to
be in contact with each other at all times.
6.4.2 Apply gas to the sample line and record how long it takes for the
system to display a gas concentration on the LCD. Log this time in the
Dwell Time column.
6.4.3 Block the sample line off, as the flow decreases a flow fail alarm will
be activated, if this is not the case a leak in the line may be apparent amend and repeat the test. Log the result in the table, column Flow
Fail.
6.4.4 Enter the Dwell Time for each location into the corresponding Timer.
See section 4.4.3

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
7.1

System Confidence Test Sequential Sampling Part

Frequency:

6 Months

Equipment Needed: Calibration Gas suitable for the sequential sensors i.e.
it is recommended that gas of 50% LEL (or similar) is used when a 0-100%
LEL sensor is installed.
Ensure that the concentration of gas used is greater than that of the highest
alarm set point.
Description:
When sample locations are grouped into zones, and different zones activate
different alarms, ensure that all zone alarm configurations are known so that
alarms can be checked.
Activate a flow fail alarm; this can be achieved by blocking the current sample
line through the ball stop valve. Once the alarm is activated, acknowledge the
alarm, refer to section 3.4.1.2
Connect the test gas to the calibration point within the analysing unit but do
not turn the gas on. Ensure that the 3-Way valve is set on the calibration
position and turn the gas on at a rate of 1 litre / minute.
The system will now generate a gas alarm on the current sample location.
Ensure all relevant alarms are activated, for example, any external beacons and
alarms on the Vessels alarm management system.
Ensure also that the display reads the same concentration as that of the
calibration gas used, i.e. 50% LEL if 50% LEL calibration gas is used.
It must be noted however that all calibration gases have a tolerance that must
be taken in to account.
Repeat for all locations that activate different alarms.
7.2

Filter Check

Frequency:

6 Months / when required

Equipment Needed: Replacement Filter Elements


Description:

Filename: Technical Manual

used.
Span: 50% LEL or similar
Zero: Synthetic Air 0% LEL
Description:

Please refer to the drawing showing the TQ126F PCB


Layout, Fig 9.
Ensure the correct voltage is across the gas sensor by
measuring the voltage across terminals 1 and 3 of the
PEL terminal connector, next to VR2, within the
sensors junction box. Adjust VR1 so the voltage is
2.00V D.C., +/- 0.1V.
Apply Zero gas to the sensor using a suitable gassing
cap at a rate of 1 litre/minute, adjust VR2 so that the
TQ126F display reads 0.00 %.
Apply Span gas to the sensor using the suitable gassing
cap at a rate of 1 litre/minute; adjust VRoVM so that
the TQ126F display reads the same value as the span
gas, i.e. 50.00 %.
While applying gas to the sensor and ensure that the
power to the Analysing Unit is cut at 30 % LEL.
