EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer 1. Introduction The EC150 is an in situ, open-path, mid-infrared absorption gas analyzer that measures the absolute densities of carbon dioxide and water vapor. The EC150 was designed for open-path eddy covariance flux measurements as part of an open-path eddy covariance measurement system. It is most often used in conjunction with the CSAT3A sonic anemometer and thermometer, which measures orthogonal wind components along with sonically determined air temperature.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer Handle the EC150 carefully. The optical source may be damaged by rough handling, especially while the analyzer is powered. o Overtightening bolts will damage or deform the mounting hardware. CAUTION: o Grounding the EC100 measurement electronics is critical. Proper grounding to Earth will ensure maximum electrostatic discharge (ESD) and lightning protection and improve measurement accuracy.

EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer 4.6 EC100 Electronics Module The EC100 electronics module (shown in FIGURE 4-1) controls the EC150 and optional CSAT3A sonic anemometer head. The EC100 synchronizes measurements and processes data from the EC150 and the CSAT3A. FIGURE 4-1. EC100 electronics module 4.6.1 EC100 Communications and Control The EC100 supports several serial communication interfaces, including USB, RS-485, and Synchronous Device for Measurement (SDM).
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer 4.6.2.1 SDM Output To use SDM data output, connect an SDM communications cable from the EC100 (see Section 6.3, Wiring and Connections) to a CR1000, CR3000, or CR5000 datalogger. On CR1000 dataloggers, the SDM protocol uses ports C1, C2, and C3. These are multipurpose control ports that are SDM-activated when an SDM instruction is used in the datalogger’s program. On CR3000 and CR5000 dataloggers, the SDM protocol uses SDM-dedicated ports SDM-C1, SDM-C2, and SDM-C3.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer The algorithm uses the following environmental parameters to control the heater: • • • • • 4.8 Analyzer body temperature, measured inside the source housing (heater control does not allow the body temperature to drop below ambient air temperature) Ambient relative humidity (in humidity greater than 80% heaters will try to maintain internal temperature 2 degrees warmer than ambient) CO2 signal level (1 min average CO2 signal level; below 0.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer The EC100 electronics module digitizes and process the detector data (along with ancillary data such as ambient air temperature and barometric pressure) to give the CO2 and H2O density for each chopper wheel revolution (50 Hz). This high measurement rate is beneficial when there is a need to synchronize the gas measurements with additional sensors measured by the datalogger. To prevent aliasing, measurements are filtered to a bandwidth that is specified by the user. 5.

Optical path and envelope dimensions of EC150 analyzer head 5.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer 6. Installation 6.1 Orientation During operation, the EC150 should be positioned vertically (±15°) so that the product label reads right side up and the upper arm (source) is directly above the lower arm (detector). If the sensor is being used with a sonic anemometer, the anemometer should be leveled and pointed into the prevailing wind to minimize flow distortion from the analyzer’s arms and other supporting structures. 6.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer The mounting bracket for the EC50 with CSAT3A, pn 26786, allows the intake source of the CSAT3A and EC150 to be positioned at varying degrees up to approximately a 5.0 cm (2.0 in) offset. The positioning and offset is illustrated in FIGURES 6-3 and 6-4. The change in positioning allows a small but significant difference in the flux attenuation ratio.

Mounting position of CSAT3A and EC155 with a 9.7 cm sensor separation. The following steps describe the normal mounting procedure. Refer to FIGURE 6-5 and 6-6 throughout this section.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer 6.2.1 Preparing the mounting structure WARNING 1. Secure a CM20X crossarm to a tripod or other vertical structure using a CM210 crossarm-to-pole bracket (pn 17767). 2. Point the horizontal arm into the direction of the prevailing wind. 3. Tighten all fitting set screws. Do not carry the EC150 by the arms or the strut between the arms. Always hold the sensor by the block where the upper and lower arms connect. 6.2.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer CAUTION Avoid crashing the arms of the sensors together. The arms of the analyzer should slide in between the claws of the CSAT3A; the sonic head may need to be loosened and repositioned to do this. 10. Tighten bolts and check that the analyzer is oriented vertically such that the label is right-side-up and the upper arm (source) is directly above the lower arm (detector). 11.

Exploded view of mounting the EC150 without the CSAT3A CAUTION Over-tightening bolts will damage or deform mounting hardware. 6.2.3 Mounting EC150 without CSAT3A The instructions for mounting the EC150 without the CSAT3A should generally follow those in Section 6.2.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer CAUTION Use caution when handling the EC150 gas analyzer head. The optical source may be damaged by rough handling, especially while the EC150 is powered. NOTE The CSAT3A sonic anemometer is an updated version of the CSAT3, designed to work with the EC100 electronics. An existing CSAT3 may be upgraded to a CSAT3A. Contact a Campbell Scientific application engineer for details. 6.2.

EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer natural elements. A zero-and span procedure should be performed after installation of the instrument to give appropriate baseline readings as a reference. A zero-and-span procedure should also be performed occasionally to assess drifts from factory calibration. In many cases, a zero and span can help resolve problems that are being experienced by the user during operating the EC150.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer CAUTION 1. Remove power from the EC100/EC150. Unplugging the power cable from the EC100 is the easiest way to accomplish this. 2. Remove wicks from the snouts of the analyzer. 3. Clean windows and snouts with isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free, nonabrasive tissue or cloth as described in Section 8.3, Cleaning Analyzer Windows. Make sure any residual alcohol and water completely evaporate from the analyzer before proceeding with the zero-and-span procedure. 4.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer 5. Disconnect the EC150 temperature probe from the EC100 and connect the shroud temperature probe in its place. 6. Connect the EC100 to a PC with the EC100 USB cable (pn 26563). 7. Resume power to the EC100/EC150. 8. Wait for all the Gas and Power LED status lights on the EC100 panel to turn green. 9. Launch ECMon, select the appropriate USB port, and click Connect. The main screen should now be reporting real-time CO2 and H2O concentrations. 10.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer FIGURE 7-2. ECMon zero-and-span window 15. Remove the CO2 span gas from the inlet of the shroud and replace it with H2O span gas from a dew-point generator or another standard reference. As water molecules can adsorb to inside of the tubing and the shroud, it may take 30 minutes or more for the H2O concentration to stabilize. The user may increase the flow rate for the first several minutes to more quickly stabilize the system before returning it to between 0.2 and 0.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer Compute the drift in instrument gain using the following equation: gain = spanactual spanmeas − zeromeas where, • • • spanactual = known concentration of the span gas spanmeas = measured concentration of the span gas zeromeas = measured concentration in zero gas Note that in the zero-and-span window of ECMon, spanactual is reported to the right of the box where the user enters the span dewpoint temperature.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer 8. Maintenance and Troubleshooting EC150 operation requires six maintenance tasks: • Routine site maintenance • Wick maintenance • Analyzer window cleaning • Zero and span • Replacing the analyzer desiccant/scrubber bottles • Factory recalibration 8.1 Routine Site Maintenance The following items should be examined periodically: 8.2 • Check the humidity indicator card in the EC100 enclosure. If the highest dot has turned pink, replace the desiccant bags.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer The bottom wick is installed in a similar manner, except the long seam should be aligned with the long side of the bottom snout. Once in place, the wicks should fit snuggly over the cylindrical part of the snout without any creases or wrinkles. The windows should be cleaned after the installation of the wicks to ensure that there are no fingerprints left on critical surfaces. See Section 8.3, Cleaning Analyzer Windows, for specifics on cleaning the EC150 windows.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer Performing frequent zero-and-span procedures when the instrument is first put into use to determine the drift from factory calibration, will give a good guideline for the frequency that the procedure should be performed. To perform a maintenance zero and span, follow the same steps as in Section 7, Zero and Span. 8.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer FIGURE 8-2. Replacing the desiccant/CO2 scrubber bottles 8.6 Factory Recalibration When the EC150 is manufactured, it goes through an extensive calibration process, covering a wide range of temperatures, pressures, and gas concentrations.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer 8.7 Troubleshooting 8.7.1 Data Loss During Precipitation Events In extremely humid environments or after a precipitation event, data loss can occur. Wicks on the analyzer windows help mitigate some of these data loss events but cannot control for all conditions. In addition to wicking, heaters in the snouts can aid in the prevention of data loss during precipitation and condensation events. The heaters are automatically controlled by the EC100 electronics.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer power supply cable is adequate gage and does not cause excessive voltage drop. SONIC Status LED • The SONIC status LED will turn red if there is no CSAT3A connected to the EC100 electronics or if any of the six sonic diagnostic flags are set. Please refer to TABLE 8-2 and to the CSAT3A instruction manual for more detail information on sonic diagnostic flags. TABLE 8-2.
EC150 CO2/H2O Open-Path Gas Analyzer If any of the remaining 22 flags are set, the master flag (BAD_DATA) is set as well, so that the user can filter data based on this flag only. When this flag is set, more detailed information about the nature of the problem can be obtained from the 22 slave flags.

Appendix A. EC150 Settings Operation of the EC150 can be customized by changing the values of the settings. Factory defaults will work well for most applications, but the user may adjust the settings with a PC using either the ECMon software (see Appendix A.3, ECMon) or the Device Configuration Utility (see Appendix A.4, Device Configuration Utility), or with a datalogger using the EC100Configure() CR Basic instruction (see Appendix A.5, EC100Configure() Instruction).
Appendix A. EC150 Settings A.2.1 SDM Address This parameter must be set to use SDM output from the EC100. See Section 4.6.2.1, SDM Output, for details on using SDM output. Each SDM device on the SDM bus must have a unique address. The EC150 has a factory default SDM address of 1, but may be changed to any integer value between 0 and 14. The value 15 is reserved as an SDM group trigger. The SDM address is stored in non-volatile memory of the EC100 electronics. A.2.
Appendix A. EC150 Settings The Unprompted Output setting is stored in non-volatile memory of the EC100 electronics. A.2.5 RS-485 Baud Rate If the unprompted output mode is set to RS-485, the RS-485 Baud Rate parameter determines the baud rate. Otherwise this setting is not used. The RS-485 baud rate defaults to 115200 bps, although the user may enter another value. The RS-485 Baud Rate setting is stored in non-volatile memory of the EC100 electronics. A.2.
Appendix A. EC150 Settings The Fixed Temperature Value setting is stored in non-volatile memory of the EC100 electronics. A.2.10 Pressure Sensor There are three options for measuring barometric pressure for the EC150 that have different corresponding Pressure Sensor settings. 1. The EC100 has an on-board barometer that Campbell Scientific refers to as the EC100 basic barometer. This barometer is mounted on the EC100 electronics board as shown in FIGURE A-1.
Appendix A. EC150 Settings FIGURE A-2. Location of EC100 enhanced barometer FIGURE A-3.
Appendix A. EC150 Settings 3. The option of a third barometer choice is also available but is rarely used. A user-supplied barometer option can also be programmed in the EC100 electronics. This setting determines which pressure sensor will be used to measure the barometric pressure. User-supplied Barometer: When a user supplies a barometer, the setting should be changed to User Supplied and the appropriate values for gain and offset must be entered.
Appendix A. EC150 Settings A.2.12 Heater Control When set to automatic, this setting applies a voltage between 0 and 4600 mV to heaters near the optical windows of the analyzer. Heated windows inhibit the formation of condensation, such as dew and frost, and help the analyzer recover more quickly when precipitation has blocked the optical path. The Heater Control setting is stored in non-volatile memory in the EC150 head. A.2.13 Head Power Off When enabled, the EC150 gas head is turned off.
Appendix A. EC150 Settings FIGURE A-4. Main screen of ECMon FIGURE A-5.
Appendix A. EC150 Settings A.4 Device Configuration Utility The Device Configuration Utility software may also be used to change settings, although ECMon is generally preferred as the user interface is more intuitive. Device Configuration may be downloaded from the EC150 & EC155 Support CD (pn 27007), or at www.campbellsci.com/downloads. Device Configuration requires a USB driver to communicate with the EC100, similar to ECMon. See Appendix A.3, ECMon, for notes on installing a USB driver.
Appendix A. EC150 Settings The instruction syntax is: EC100Configure(Result,SDMAddress,ConfigCmd,DestSource) Result is a variable that contains a value indicating the success or failure of the command. A result code of 0 means that the command was successfully executed. If reading a setting, 0 in the result code means that the value in the DestSource variable is the value the desired setting has in the EC150.
Appendix A. EC150 Settings TABLE A-2.
Appendix A. EC150 Settings complete. To perform CO2 span, the CO2 Span Concentration setting (ConfigCmd 12) must be written to the proper value in ppm CO2 prior to setting the Span/Zero Control setting (ConfigCmd 11) to 2. After the CO2 span is completed, the value of the Span/Zero Control setting will change to –2. H2O span is similar to CO2. First the H2O Dew Point value (ConfigCmd 13) must be written to the desired value. Then the Span/Zero Control setting is set to 3.
Appendix B. Filter Bandwidth and Time Delay The EC100 measures CO2 and H2O from the EC150 gas analyzer head. It will also measure wind velocity and sonic temperature if the optional CSAT3A sonic head is being used. EC100 measurements occur at 100z and then a userselectable, low-pass filter is applied. The available filter bandwidths are 5, 10, 12.5, 20, and 25 Hz. FIGURE B-1 shows the amplitude response of these filters.
Appendix B. Filter Bandwidth and Time Delay FIGURE B-2. Frequency response comparison of EC100 10-Hz bandwidth and a 50-msec moving average The ideal eddy-covariance filter is one that is wide enough to preserve the lowfrequency signal variations that transport flux, yet narrow enough to attenuate high-frequency noise.
Appendix B. Filter Bandwidth and Time Delay provides a constant time delay for all spectral components within each filter’s pass band. TABLE B-1. Filter Time Delays for Various Bandwidths Bandwidth (Hz) Time Delay (ms) 5 800 10 400 12.5 320 20 200 25 160 The following examples show how to use TABLE B-1.
