Quickstart Guide Trace Oxygen Analyzer Teledyne Analytical Instruments
Model 3000TA Quickstart Guide GETTING STARTED This Quickstart Guide is designed to get you set up and operating your Teledyne Analytical Instruments Analyzer quickly. It shortcuts the details so you can install and use your new analyzer with a minimum of fuss. This Quickstart Guide should be used in conjunction with the Instruction Manual that shipped with your instrument. Only necessary features to get you operational are discussed in this guide.
Quickstart Guide Trace Oxygen Analyzer • Left & Right Arrows Select between functions currently displayed on the VFD screen. • Up & Down Arrows Increment or decrement values of functions currently displayed. • Enter Advances VFD display to the next screen in a series or returns to the Analyze screen if none remain. • Escape Backs VFD display to the previous screen in a series or returns to the Analyze screen if none remain.
Model 3000TA Quickstart Guide • Analog Output Connection: Terminals for current and voltage analog output signals. • Digital Input Terminals: Terminals for connecting digital input signals. • Alarm Connections: 2 concentration alarms and 1 system alarm. • Calibration Contact : To notify external equipment that instrument is being calibrated and readings are not monitoring sample. • Range ID Contacts: Four separate, dedicated, range relay contacts. Low, Medium, High, Cal.
Quickstart Guide Trace Oxygen Analyzer SETUP AND INSTALL Mount the Analyzer The Model 3000TA is for indoor use in a general purpose area. It is NOT for hazardous environments of any type. It is designed for flush panel mounting. Use the four mounting holes— one in each corner of the rigid frame to panel mount the instrument. Gas Connections Note: Do not remove plastic caps on VCR fittings, unless you are ready to make connections.
Model 3000TA Quickstart Guide 4. If using remote calibration feature: • Connect zero gas to the ZERO IN port. • Connect span gas to the SPAN IN port. 5. Otherwise, calibration gases must be Tee'd into the sample inlet with appropriate valves. 6. Regulate the sample gas pressure between 2 and 50 psig sufficient to keep the front panel flowmeter reading in an acceptable range (0.1 to 2.4 SLPM). For nonpressurized sample or very low pressure, (less than 2 psig) vacuum service plumbing is recommended. 7.
Quickstart Guide Trace Oxygen Analyzer • Connect primary input power: Insert the power cord into the power cord receptacle. • Install the fuse: Fuses are not installed at the factory. Be sure to install the proper fuse as part of installation. Place small screwdriver in notch, and pry cover off, as shown. To change between American and European fuses, remove the single retaining screw, flip fuse block over 180 degrees, and replace screw. Replace fuse as shown below and reassemble housing.
Model 3000TA Quickstart Guide • Connect Range ID Contacts: There are four dedicated Range ID relay contacts on the rear panel. The first three ranges are assigned to relays in ascending order. Range 1 ID— Low range Range 2 ID— Medium range Range 3 ID— High range Range 4 ID—Air Cal Range (25%). • Network I/O: A serial digital input/output for local network protocol. At this printing, this port is not yet functional. It is to be used in future options to the instrument.
Quickstart Guide Trace Oxygen Analyzer 9. With the O-ring in place, align the guide pin with the hole on the cell holder. Then, with the holder, lift cell into the cell block. 10. Push the gate on the cell block down so that the slots on the side of the gate engage the locating screws on the side of the block. This forces the holder into position and forms a gas-tight seal. 11. Purge the system using sample or zero gas. 12. Power the system back up.
Model 3000TA Quickstart Guide BASIC OPERATION Once the analyzer has been installed, it can be configured for your application. Prior to using the instrument you must: • Calibrate the instrument • Define the analysis ranges and choose whether to use autoranging or a fixed range. • Set alarm setpoints and modes of alarm operation. Additional configuration parameters are available to tailor the instrument to your particular application.
Quickstart Guide Trace Oxygen Analyzer Available Functions The six function buttons are used to control the analyzer. Some functions have submenus that allow additional choices as shown below. Any function can be selected at any time by pressing the appropriate button (unless password restrictions apply).
Model 3000TA Quickstart Guide Password Protection If a password is assigned, then setting the following system parameters can be done only after the password is entered: span and zero settings, alarm setpoints, analysis range definitions, switching between autoranging and manual override, setting up an auto-cal, and assigning a new password. However, the instrument can still be used for analysis or for initiating a self-test without entering the password.
Quickstart Guide Trace Oxygen Analyzer TRAK/HLD Auto—Cal PSWD Logout More • Use the ◄► arrow keys to scroll the blinking over to PSWD, • Press Enter to select the password function. Either the default TETAI password or AAAAA place holders for an existing password will appear on screen depending on whether or not a password has been previously installed. TETAI Enter PWD —or— AAAAA Enter PWD • If you are not using password protection, press Enter to accept TETAI as the default password.
Model 3000TA Quickstart Guide Auto Mode Zero Calibration • Press Zero to enter the zero function mode. • Use the ▲▼ arrow keys to toggle between AUTO and MAN zero settling. Stop when AUTO appears blinking. Zero: Settling: AUTO To Begin • Press Enter to begin zeroing. #### PPM Zero Slope=#### ppm/s . . . #### PPM Zero 4 Left=### ppm/s The zeroing process will automatically conclude when the output is within the acceptable range for a good zero.
Quickstart Guide Trace Oxygen Analyzer Span Calibration Make sure an appropriate span gas is connected to the sample port. Auto Mode Spanning: • Press Span to enter the span function. • Use the arrow keys to toggle between AUTO and MAN span settling. Stop when AUTO appears, blinking on the display. Span: Settling: AUTO For Next • Press Enter. Calib. Holding time Cal hold: 5 min • Press Enter to move to the next screen. Span Val: 000008.
Model 3000TA Quickstart Guide Calib. Holding time Cal hold: 5 min • Press Enter key to continue. Span Val: 000008.00 Span Mod # • Press ▲ () to permit modification (Mod #) of span value. • Use the arrow keys to enter the oxygen concentration of the span gas you are using (209000.00 if you are using air). The ◄► arrows choose the digit, and the ▲▼ arrows choose the value of the digit. • Press Enter to enter the span value into the system and begin the span calibration.
Quickstart Guide • Trace Oxygen Analyzer Latching? Ltch–Y/N (Yes/No). • To change any of the alarm parameters, use the ◄► arrow keys to move the blinking over to the specific parameter. • Use the ▲▼ arrow keys to change the value of the parameter. Holding down the key speeds up the incrementing or decrementing. • Once the parameters for alarm 1 have been set, press Alarms again, and repeat this procedure for alarm 2 (AL–2).
Model 3000TA • Quickstart Guide Use the ▲▼ arrow keys to switch from AUTO to FX/LO, FX/MED, or FX/HI to set the instrument on the desired fixed range (low, medium, or high). L—100 M—1000 H—10000 Mode—FX/LO —or— L—1 M—10 H—100 Mode—FX/MED —or— L—1 M—10 H—100 Mode—FX/HI Press Escape to re-enter the analyze mode using the fixed range. The Analyze Function Normally, all of the functions automatically switch back to the Analyze function when they have completed their assigned operations.
