Honeywell XNX XNX-AMAI-NNNNN – no sensor (transmitter body), IR, ATEX, Aluminium, M25
XNX-AMAI-NNNNN is a Honeywell XNX IR-personality transmitter body, ATEX / IECEx (INMETRO on selected MPD SKUs), 4 × M25, LM25 aluminium (painted), 4–20 mA HART only (no option board), no local HART port, no sensor. It is the junction-box electronics for Searchpoint Optima Plus or Searchline Excel—not an MPD catalytic transmitter.

Why this personality / sensor
Optima Plus (point IR) and Excel (open-path) need the IR personality board and a different wiring/power budget than MPD millivolt heads. Ordering an mV body and hoping to hang Excel later will fail at commissioning. This SKU keeps the transmitter certified while the IR head is specified on its own datasheet.
Personality and replaceable parts
XNX-AMAI-NNNNN uses the IR personality (Searchpoint Optima Plus / Searchline Excel) board and mates with Searchpoint Optima Plus point IR or Searchline Excel open-path IR. This SKU ships without a sensor; order the head by gas. Spares live on product-3991. Do not substitute Sensepoint XCD cartridges on XNX.
Typical applications
Use IR bodies on tank-farm open-path runs, compressor-hall Optima points, and LNG boil-off galleries where the path length or window kit is sized after the transmitter is already on the pipe stand.

Installation and wiring
Wall-mount XNX-AMAI-NNNNN (LM25 aluminium (painted), approx. 2.8 kg) on a rigid stand sized for that mass. This SKU uses 4 × M25 entries—glands must match; do not retap XNX-AMAI-NNNNN. Land XNX-AMAI-NNNNN 4–20 mA HART per the loop drawing; relays/Modbus/FFB exist only on the matching option board. Magnetic-wand menus on the XNX-AMAI-NNNNN lid stay non-intrusive. XNX-AMAI-NNNNN is a body: wall-mount the transmitter first and mate the head after the personality is confirmed—do not buy a configured SKU until the gas is frozen.
FAQ
- Can I add an MPD sensor to XNX-AMAI-NNNNN later?
- XNX-AMAI-NNNNN ships as a transmitter body. mV personalities accept MPD CB1/IV1/IF1/IC1 heads; IR personalities need Optima/Excel; EC personalities need XNX electrochemical cells. Do not mix those three families on this board.
- Is XNX-AMAI-NNNNN a complete gas detector?
- No. XNX-AMAI-NNNNN is electronics and enclosure only. A configured detector has a three-character sensor code such as CB1 instead of NNN.
- When should I swap XNX-AMAI-NNNNN aluminium for 316SS?
- Use XNX-AMAI-NNNNN (aluminium, ~2.8 kg) in inland, painted plant. Coastal, splash and sour-water decks should move to stainless sibling XNX-AMSI-NNNNN.
- Can I convert XNX-AMAI-NNNNN from ATEX M25 to NPT in the field?
- No. XNX-AMAI-NNNNN flameproof entries are machined M25. North-American NPT is UL sibling XNX-UTAI-NNNNN, not an adaptor on this ATEX body.
- Does XNX-AMAI-NNNNN include alarm relays?
- No. XNX-AMAI-NNNNN is 4–20 mA HART only. Local trip contacts need option-R sibling XNX-AMAI-RNNNN; plant-bus needs Modbus XNX-AMAI-MNNNN or Foundation Fieldbus XNX-AMAI-FNNNN.
