Important Safety Guidelines for the 943-TGX
Field Programmable Tail Gas Analyzer System
943-TGX-CE
Refer to the 943-TGX-CE User Manual Important Safety Guidelines for the
943-TGX-CE Tail Gas Analyzer System also.
Please read the following warnings and cautions carefully before using the 943-TGX Tail Gas
Analyzer System:
This equipment must be used as specified by the manufacturer or overall safety

will be impaired.
Access to this equipment should be limited to authorized, trained personnel ONLY.
Due to the thermal mass of the hardware, cooling of the items takes substantial
time.
Observe all warning labels on the analyzer enclosures.
Install fuses of the Type and Rating as shown on the Fuse Identifier labels.
The analog outputs and alarm relay contacts may be powered by a source separate from the
one (s) used to power the analyzer system. Disconnecting the AC Mains Source (s) may not
remove power from the analog output signals.
Any safety recommendations or comments contained herein are suggested guidelines only.
Galvanic Applied Sciences Inc. bears no responsibility and assumes no liability for the use and/or
implementation of these suggested procedures.
This system, when operating in its normal mode, and/or when it is being serviced, maintained,
installed and commissioned contains items which may be hazardous to humans if handled or
operated incorrectly or negligently. These items include, but are not limited to:
• High Voltage Electrical Energy
• Toxic and Explosive Gases
• Intense Ultraviolet Radiation
• High Temperature Surfaces
Installation of the system requires the opening of the process sample point to allow for the
insertion of the system sample probe assembly. To achieve this, removing the process access
point blind flange is necessary. When the flange is removed, toxic, hot (approximately
150ºC/300ºF) gases and molten sulfur may be expelled to the atmosphere until the system
sample probe and its associated flange are in place and securely fastened.
It is recommended that the personnel installing the probe wear plant approved breathing air
apparatus, and approved personal protective equipment (i.e. gloves, coveralls and protective eye
wear) suitable for high temperature work. This applies even if the Tail Gas Line (Process Stream)
is believed to be at negative pressure.
During normal operation, toxic gases, (H2S, SO2, COS and CS2) are present in the tubing,
measurement cell, aspirator and all other system components through which the tail gas sample
flows. They should not be opened before the complete system is purged with zero gas (an inert
gas or instrument air), and the system is blocked using the two valves in the sample oven
identified as the Sample Flow and Vent Flow on/off valves.
Purging of the system should be performed with both valves in the open position and maintained
for approximately five (5) minutes. Once purging is complete, and with the purge gas still flowing,
the two valves should be switched to the Off position. The purge gas can now be shut off and the
tubing or associated apparatus opened.
The sampling system will be under positive pressure. Loosen a fitting and allow the pressure to
be released before completely disconnecting the tubing.
The entire system is enclosed in an oven cabinet that is heated and maintained at approximately
150ºC/300ºF to prevent the condensation of sulfur. Maintenance performed before the cooling of
the oven and hardware should be done while wearing suitable protective clothing, eye wear, and
gloves to prevent burns to the hands and arms.
The system includes an Ultraviolet spectrometer which employs a source that generates intense
UV radiation that is transmitted to the measurement cell and spectrometer through fibre optic
cables.
This radiation is extremely harmful to the naked eye and skin, even in short duration exposures.
Always extinguish the UV radiation source (lamp) before removing a fibre optic cable or the lamp
power supply cover by turning the AC power to the lamp power supply ‘Off’. Should the lamp be
turned on for any reason while the cover is off, ensure that certified eye protection is worn and
that the exposure is limited to the bare minimum.
Although the UV radiation is transmitted through a narrow diameter fibre, it should never be
viewed directly. The beam is extremely intense and will cause permanent eye damage. Should
visual inspection of the beam be required, point the end of the fibre at an inanimate object and
view the illumination reflection. Never expose human skin to the radiation from the optical fibres.

Section 1 Model 943-TGX Tail Gas Analyzer
Spectrophotometer Overview
1.1 Overview
The use of a Tail Gas Analyzer to assist in the control of combustion air to acid gas ratios in
Claus Sulfur Recovery Plants is a standard procedure in industry. The plant tail gas is
analyzed using ultraviolet spectroscopy and an output signal that corresponds to the air
requirement is determined. This observed signal is proportional to the percentage change
required in the combustion air to provide stoichiometric concentrations of the principal
reactants; H2S and SO2. When the process is optimized and the correct stoichiometric
concentrations of H2S and SO2 are achieved, the feedback signal (normally referred to as Air
Demand) is zero (which means that no change is required).
The simplified Air Demand equation is:
Air Demand = F × ([H2S] - Rop [SO2])
where:
F = plant specific gain factor

[H2S] = concentration of H2S
[SO2] = concentration of SO2
Rop = operating ratio (typically 2)
When the stoichiometric concentrations of H2S and SO2 ([H2S] / [SO2]) are equal to 2, the
Air Demand output becomes zero regardless of the plant specific gain factor (F) when the
operating ratio (Rop) is two (2). When the plant specific gain factor (F) is established for a
particular process, the units of Air Demand become ‘percent change required in process air’.
(i.e., a computed Air Demand of +1.5% means that the process is 1.5% excess in air.) To
achieve optimum performance of the Claus Sulfur Recovery Plant, the Air Demand should be
kept near zero.
The sample gas obtained from the sulfur plant waste or tail gas stream may also contain
other sulfur species such as COS, CS2, and Svapour. These species, if present in significant
concentrations, must be analyzed for and a correction be made to avoid interference with the
H2S and SO2 analysis.

1.2 Analytical Method
The analyzer uses a spectrometer with a diffraction grating that is optimized in the spectral
region where the species of interest absorb (the compounds of interest absorb between 200
and 400 nm) coupled to a detection system that maximizes sensitivity and resolution while
minimizing dark current and stray light noise (a 2048 element CCD detector is employed).
The UV radiation is supplied by a highly stable deuterium broadband source and is

transmitted to/from the measurement cell via UV fibre optic cables. This approach provides
for analytical accuracy and allows for more precise multi-species analysis than that of a
conventional photometer which uses narrow band optical filters. The conventional photometer
measures only a few discrete wavelengths and spectrometers having lower resolution and
fewer elements in the detector are also less precise.
If, as is frequently the case, more than one of the sulfur containing compounds indicated
above are present, their spectra will overlap. The system uses a deconvolution protocol to
separate the signals for each component via a multi component algorithm.
1.3 Analyzer Design

The Model 943-TGX Analyzer System is packaged in two (2) frame mounted cabinets:
a) An oven cabinet which contains the sample handling system and associated hardware
(i.e., solenoids, oven, heaters, etc.). All electrical equipment residing in the oven cabinet
is installed using appropriate explosion proof and/or intrinsically safe wiring methods.
b) A control cabinet which contains the electrical hardware necessary for the operation of
the analyzer. Under normal operating circumstances, the interior of the control cabinet
maintains a general purpose area classification through a purge system. Both visual and
electrical (contact closure) indications are provided for monitoring the status of the control
cabinet purge.

1.4 Sampling System
The Analyzer system utilizes a close coupled mounting arrangement of the measurement cell
to the tail gas process sampling point to minimize the sample system length. The short length
allows for analyzer response times to be optimized while sample transport problems are
mitigated. A small volume of tail gas sample is educted through the measurement cell where
the concentrations of the various species are determined photometrically.
The measurement sample is drawn from a central point of the process duct using a
specifically sized sample probe. After measurement, the process sample (mixed with the
educting media) is vented to the wall of the process duct. The concentric chamber design of
the sample probe provides both the eduction and venting of the tail gas sample through a
single sampling point on the process duct.
The sample probe incorporates a mechanism for reducing the dew point of sulfur vapour in
the sampled gas stream. Instrument air can be introduced to provide an exposed cool surface
to the incoming sample gas. Excess condensed sulfur is hydrostatically returned to the
process duct. The sulphur vapour concentration is measured and displayed on the analyzer
display. The sulphur vapour concentration is useful for system troubleshooting.
Incoming sample gas is filtered to 60 micron and drawn through the measurement cell by the
aspirator. The measurement cell exposes a known length of sample to UV radiation for
spectroscopic analysis. The aspirator is integral to the measurement cell and uses instrument
air (or other inert gas) as the educting media. The analyzer turns on the aspirator drive media
only when a ‘no fault’ state exists.
Analyzer zeroing is accomplished by introducing higher pressure instrument air (or other inert
gas) upstream of the measurement cell. The zero gas flushes the entire sample system
(probe to vent) and allows readings to be taken through the measurement cell when no
absorbing species are present. To the sample system, zeroing and back purging are the
same thing. The default state (power ‘off’) of the analyzer is to have the sample system in the
back purge (zeroing) mode. Valving is provided for isolating the sample system components
from the process stream. A provision is included in the oven plumbing for the steam purging
of the sample probe after a plant shut-down or turn-around, should it be required.
A temperature-controlled oven maintains all components exposed to the tail gas sample at
higher than dew point values. The oven and sample probe are mounted to an interface plate,
which in turn is directly mounted to the steam heated process duct sample nozzle (typically a
2 inch, 150 pound pipe flange configuration). Electrical heat is applied to the measurement
cell to achievee precise temperature control.

1.5 System Operating Control
The analyzer system operation is controlled by a dedicated data acquisition system which
provides supervisory control, performs all calculations and provides the user interface.
The system includes an onboard computer system which provides a graphic display of key
system control parameters and their status, a digital display of the instantaneous value of the
Air Demand, H2S, SO2, and COS, and historical graphic displays of the Air Demand, H2S and
SO2. The display monitor is mounted on the door of the control cabinet. Cabinet access is not
required for viewing or operation.
The Air Demand, H2S, SO2, and AO4 outputs can be configured as loop-powered 4 – 20 mA
signals and the system status can be provided via relay contacts. As an option, the AO4
output can be configured to output Air Demand, H2S, SO2, COS, Sigma S (the sum of the
H2S and SO2 concentrations), or H2S/SO2 ratio. An RS485 serial port is also provided which
can be used for available for Modbus communication.
A hand held key pad is provided for user interface with the analyzer. Operation of the system
with the keypad is described in Section 4.2. As an alternative, a web based graphical user
interface (GUI) can be used to view and enter information on a remote basis (Section 4.3).

2.3 Unpacking
The 943-TGX analyzer system is packed for shipment in a wooden crate.
To unpack the system:
a) Remove the lid by undoing the marked lag bolts.
b) Once the lid is off, remove the excess packing material, boxes and sample probe from
the shipping crate. The sample probe will be wrapped in packing material. Probes with a
guide length of 5.5 feet or longer are packed in a separate crate.
c) Visually inspect the small packages and the sample probe to ensure that no major
damage has occurred. If damage has occurred, contact the shipping company and
Galvanic Applied Sciences. Place the small packages and the sample probe aside in a
safe, secure storage area as they are not needed at this stage of the system installation.
The analyzer weighs approximately 275 lb/125 kg. Use suitable precautions
when removing it from the crate and placing it in the facility.
d) Locate and remove the four (4) bolts that secure the analyzer framework to the 2' x 4'
boards at the bottom of the shipping crate.
e) Once the bolts are removed the analyzer system can be lifted from the crate.
f) Lay the analyzer system frame onto a structurally strong and level surface and inspect for
any visual damage.

g) Remove the plastic wrap from the analyzer system to gain access to the doors of the
cabinets.
h) Open the cabinet doors and carefully remove the packing material from inside each of
the two (2) analyzer cabinets.
Care should be taken while removing the cabinet packing material so that
no hardware or wiring is damaged.
i) Inspect the internal equipment to ensure that no damage has occurred and that no
components have become loose during transport.
If any damage is visible contact Galvanic Applied Sciences Inc. immediately and do not
proceed with the system installation. Do not attempt to facilitate repairs yourself as this
will negate and/or invalidate any possible insurance claim or equipment warranty.
j) If no damage is apparent, the analyzer system is ready for transport to the installation
(sample point) site. The analyzer system framework has two (2) lifting rings located at the
top. Installation of proper clevises is recommended. The lifting rings are rated for
approximately 227 kg / 500 lbs per ring.
2.4 Installation Steps

Installation of the 943-TGX analyzer system consists of the following steps
• Mounting of the Analyzer System (Section 2.4.1)
• Mating of the Process and Analyzer System Flanges (Section 2.4.2)
• Connection of the AC Power Service (Section 2.4.3)
• Connection of the Analog Signal Cables (Section 2.4.4)
• Connection of the Digital Signal Cables (Section 2.4.5)
• Connection of the Instrument Air Services (Section 2.4.6)
• Connection of Steam (Section 2.4.7)
• Connection of the ‘Loss of Purge Signal’ (Section 2.4.8)
The user should read each step and make certain that it is fully understood
before proceeding to installing the analyzer.
2.4.1 Mounting of the Analyzer System

The framework that is used in the analyzer system must be securely attached to a support
structure provided by the end user. The support structure must be positioned so that when
the analyzer framework is bolted in place, the flange of the analyzer cabinet and the process
sample access point are correctly aligned. The plant support structure should be suitable for
mounting the analyzer frame as shown in the Mounting drawing (Figure 2-1). An overview of
the service connections is presented in Figure 2-2.
The steam jacketed ball valve must be installed on the process sample point before mounting
the analyzer system.

The Steam jacketed ball valve must remain closed until the sample probe is
installed and connected in the sample handling oven.
Figure 2-1: Analyzer Dimensions
Figure 2-2 indicates the location of the various connections that have to be made.

Figure 2-2: Service Connections
943-TGX-CE
There are no oven steam supply fittings on the 943-TGX-CE.
2.4.2 Mating of the Process and Analyzer System

Flanges
943-TGX-CE
Refer to the 943-TGX-CE User Manual Section 2.7.2.
The analyzer is shipped with a 316 SS blind flange plate and gasket mounted inside the oven
compartment to prevent the process gas from flowing into the compartment before installation
of the sample probe assembly. Check to ensure that this blind flange is in place and secure.
Explosive, toxic and hot gases and molten sulfur may be released once the
stream jacketed ball valve is opened. All company and/or regulatory

agency safety procedures and rules should be adhered to. Breathing
apparatus and personal protective equipment (ie. gloves, coveralls and
protective eye wear) should be worn and a safety person(s) should be
observing. Do not take unnecessary risks even if you believe the tailgas
line to be at negative pressure.
Before mounting the analyzer at the process (sample) connection, check to ensure that:
a) The bolt holes in the steam jacketed nozzle flange are large enough to accommodate the
four (4) bolts on the analyzer system flange
b) The two (2) flanges are correctly aligned
c) A new gasket of proper size and material is available
d) The appropriate nuts are available to put onto the system flange bolts.
The actual sample probe is sized so that it provides a minimum of 25%

penetration into the process pipe. The diameter of the pipe is provided by
the customer.
If all of the above conditions are satisfied:
a) Put the new gasket in place and move the analyzer system into position placing the four
(4) bolts through the steam jacketed nozzle flange holes.
b) Place the four (4) nuts onto the bolts and tighten.
c) Inspect the flange connection using company and/or regulatory agency procedures to
ensure that the connection is leak-tight (no gases are escaping).
d) Check that process gas is not leaking into the analyzer oven.
When the analyzer is securely fastened to the process sample point flange, make sure that
the analyzer framework is secured to the support structure. This is to ensure that the
framework and support structure, not the flange connection, are bearing the weight of the
analyzer system.
Install the sample probe:
943-TGX-CE
Refer to the 943-TGX-CE User Manual Section 2.7.3.
a) Remove the hole plug from the top of the oven cabinet and insert the probe into the
packing gland at the bottom of the oven until it reaches the steam jacketed ball valve.
Explosive, toxic and hot gases and molten sulfur may be released once the
stream jacketed ball valve is opened. All company and/or regulatory
agency safety procedures and rules should be adhered to. Breathing
apparatus and personal protective equipment (ie. gloves, coveralls and
protective eye wear) should be worn and a safety person(s) should be
observing. Do not take unnecessary risks even if you believe the tailgas
line to be at negative pressure.
b) Open the steam jacketed ball valve and continue inserting the probe until the probe
flange contacts the packing gland.
c) Tighten the packing gland and connect the tubing to the probe.
If the connections are leak-tight and company safety personnel have

deemed the atmosphere to be safe, breathing apparatus may now be
removed.

Section 3 Operation
3.1 Overview
The 943-TGX analyzer system is designed to operate automatically with a minimum need for
human intervention. Once installation, commissioning and initial start-up have been
completed, the only human intervention required is when the system indicates a problem or
when routine preventative maintenance is scheduled.
The user interaction program is described in Chapter 4.
The analyzer system computer automatically performs all of the normal operational
procedures including sample flow initiation, analysis, on-line calibration, range sensitivity
selection, fault detection, temperature zone control and fail-safe back purge (should a fault
occur). Operators are alerted to an abnormal state or fault occurrence through indicators on
the display on the front panel and the output alarm contact closures.
The only manual adjustments to system controls (not through the computer) are the flow
control of various instrument air streams.
Flow adjustment valves for the zero/purge gas flow rate, the aspirator drive air flow rate and
the sulfur condenser air flow rate are provided and located according to Oven Cabinet
Component Locations drawing. All valves are clearly labeled according to their title and
function. The Flow Diagram drawing provides a schematic of the flow streams in the analyzer
system. Isolation on/off block valves are provided in the oven compartment to do the sample
probe steam-out procedure, if required.
3.2 Flow Control Settings

The flow control settings govern system operation. Once the system has been commissioned
and the flow rates have been set, only occasional adjustments should be required. Flow
settings will be checked and verified when doing the recommended routine preventative
maintenance procedure. The flow control valves can be located using the diagrams in
Section 9.
3.2.1 Cabinet Purge Air Flow Adjust Valve
943-TGX-CE
The pressure control (needle) valve on the purge controller is set for an
enclosure pressure of 1.07mbar as read on the purge controller display.
943-TGX-CE
The rapid purge minimum duration is 5 minutes at a minimum flow rate of
0.14m3/min.

3.2.2 Cabinet Cooler Air Valve
The system provides on/off control of the air to the cabinet cooler via a solenoid valve with
respect to a configuration set-point. The Cabinet Cooler Air Valve is located on the top of the
analyzer behind the purge box. The Cabinet Cooler Air Valve is a coarse flow rate adjustment
of air to the vortex tube cabinet cooler (typically on or off with minor throttling possible). The
temperature is displayed on the computer Front Panel as ‘Control Cabinet Temperature’.
When control cabinet cooling air is on, the additional purging flow will cause the over-
pressure relief valve to open.
3.2.3 Condenser Cooling Air Flow Adjust Valve

The system provides on/off control of the probe cooling air via a solenoid operated valve. The
Condenser Cooling Air Flow Adjust Valve is a coarse flow rate adjustment of air used to cool
the condenser section of the sample probe. The sample probe contains an internal surface,
exposed to the process sample gas path, which can be cooled by the introduction of
instrument air. Sulfur condensing on this surface is hydrostatically returned to the process
stream.
The concentration of sulphur vapour in the process sample gas exiting the probe is measured
and displayed on the computer Front Panel as Sulphur Vapour. The Condenser Cooling Air
Flow Adjust Valve is opened to reduce the Sulphur Vapour. There is normally a long time
constant associated with this adjustment. Several factors can impact the temperature of the
gas exiting the probe. These factors include:
• changes in process gas temperature
• changes in cooling air temperature
• changes in the process gas sample aspiration rate and elapsed time since and the duration
of a probe back purge.
During a calibration sequence or back purge operation, instrument air is forced into the
sample probe from the oven. The indicated sulphur vapour during and immediately after a
back purging operation is and NOT the sulphur vapour concentration in the process sample
gas.
The desired situation is that the concentration of the sulphur vapour in the
process sample gas exiting the sample probe is lower than with the probe
cooling air off without causing plugging of the sample probe..
3.2.4 Zero Air Flow Adjust Valve

The Zero Air Flow Adjust Valve (controls the flow rate of air used in the zeroing and back
purging operations (the analyzer ‘zero’ is adjusted under back purge conditions). Under
normal operating circumstances, the Zero Air Flow Adjust Valve is adjusted to provide
sufficient air flow to obtain a 2-5 second stabilized zero response time from a ‘sampling’ state.
The stabilized zero response is ascertained by monitoring the time required for the analyzer
gas concentration outputs to stabilize at a near zero level once the analyzer has been
switched from a sample to zero (back purge) mode. Excessive zero air flow rates will overly
cool oven components. A deficient zero air flow rate may not provide adequate flushing of the
measurement cell before a zero adjustment is made. In extraordinary circumstances, during

sample system clogging (liquid accumulation), the Zero Air Flow Adjust Valve may be opened
wide to provide a solid back purge pressure. Alternately, the Zero Air Flow Adjust Valve may
be turned down to a trickle for an extended period (20-30 minutes) allowing the heat of the
oven to re-liquefy any solid accumulation (plugging) before increasing the back purging
pressure to clean out the plumbing.
3.2.5 Aspirator Drive Air Flow Adjust Valve

The Aspirator Drive Air Flow Adjust Valve controls (indirectly) the rate of process sample gas
extraction from the tail gas duct. The aspirator drive air is plumbed to a venturi type eductor
integral to the measurement cell block. The design of the analyzer sample system is such
that process sample gas is extracted from near the centre of the process duct, and vented at
the wall of the process duct through the same access port. Ideally, enough aspirator drive air
is provided to present a measurement cell pressure of 2-3" H2O below the process duct
pressure.
In practice, the aspirator drive air flow adjustment is made to obtain a nominal 5-10 second
stabilized sample response time from a ‘zeroing’ state. (The length of time is impacted by the
actual probe length.) This adjustment is made by monitoring the time required for the
analyzer display outputs of gas concentration to return to a stable process level, after the
‘zero’ state has been released.
3.2.6 System Regulator

The system regulator is normally set to 30 psig. The absolute value of this setting is not
critical for system operation however, sufficient pressure to provide adequate sample
aspiration and system zeroing is necessary. In situations where additional supply pressure is
required, the system regulator may be adjusted to its maximum output of 50 psig without
harming the analyzer.

3.3 Analyzer Outputs
The 943-TGX analyzer generates both analog and digital output signals for connection to the
users’ plant control system. The analog signals include the calculated Air Demand, and the
measured concentrations of H2S, SO2, and optionally a user selectable signal for analog
output 4. The provided digital signals (relay contacts) represent indications of the current
analyzer and enclosure purge state.
3.3.1 Analog Outputs

The analog outputs are ranged in software, based on information provided specifically for a
particular plant. Four loop powered 4 – 20 mA outputs are available:
• Analog Output 1: Air Demand
• Analog Output 2: H2S Concentration
• Analog Output 3: SO2 Concentration
• Analog Output 4: User Selectable from Air Demand, H2S, SO2, Sigma S (the sum of H2S
and SO2 concentrations), CS2 or H2S/SO2 ratio.
Analog outputs for H2S and SO2 concentrations can be programmed to be either Track or
Hold. If the output is programmed to be ‘Track’, the output will track the calculated values
displayed on the Front Panel of the computer. (Tracking outputs will follow the zero
calibration sequence as it occurs.) If the output is programmed to be ‘Hold’, the output will
track the calculated value displayed on the Front Panel until an abnormal condition, zero
calibration or fault condition exists. The output will then be held until normal operation is re-
established.
The Air Demand analog output is Hold only. When the analyzer is in normal operation, the
Air Demand analog output tracks the displayed value.. When an abnormal condition, zero
calibration or fault condition exists, the analyzer automatically holds the last valid Air Demand
output value until normal operation is re-established.
The analog outputs are updated at a rate of once per second, driven by the calculation cycle
frequency.

3.3.2 Digital Outputs
There are four (4) digital outputs available from the analyzer. The digital outputs are present
in the form of zero potential form C relay contacts. The digital outputs are isolated to 250
Vrms. The digital outputs are provided to indicate analyzer operational status. The operational
status outputs are:
• Status (Fault / Normal)
• Service (Warning / Normal)
• Mode (Calibrate / Run)
• Control (Manual / Auto).
In addition to the 4 digital outputs associated with the analyzer operation, there is an
independent Purge Fail Alarm attached to the purge system.
a) Status (Fault / Normal) Indicator
The Status (Fault / Normal) output provides analyzer system readiness information.
Before ‘Normal’ status indication is given, the analyzer temperature zones and
spectrometer signal must be within the specific set point ranges. This indicator will be in
the ‘Normal’ state only when ALL of the following are true:
• the analyzer is receiving mains power.
• the cell temperature is between the cell ‘Low Alarm’ temperature and ‘High Alarm’
temperature set points.
• the probe temperature is between the probe ‘Low Alarm’ and cell ‘High Alarm’
temperature setpoints or the sulphur vapour signal is less than the High Svap alarm.
• the last spectrometer ‘Measure’ scan was within range.
• the last spectrometer ‘Reference’ scan was within range.
• the last spectrometer ‘Dark’ scan was within range.
The purpose of this indicator is to signify an analyzer problem. When this indicator is in
the ‘Fault’ state, the analyzer reverts to a ‘Back purge’ state. Should the fault causing
criterion clear, the analyzer will automatically return to ‘Normal’ status and start sampling.
b) Service (Warning / Normal) Indicator
The Service (Warning / Normal) output indicates when service is requested. This
indicator will be in the ‘Normal’ state unless one or more of the following is true:
• the control cabinet temperature is below 15ºC or over 40ºC.
• the spectrometer integration period is greater than 500 ms.
• the peak value of the absorbance vector is greater than 2.0.
• the sulfur vapour concentration is greater than 0.2%.
• the peak value of the raw scan during last zero is less than 2500 A/D (analog to digital)
counts.
The purpose of this indicator is to signify the analyzer is approaching the extremes of
optimum levels. When this indicator is in the ‘Warning’ state, the analyzer will NOT be
placed in the back purge mode. The analyzer will continue to function normally,
producing useable outputs. The analyzer will self-clear the ‘Warning’ condition and
automatically return to ‘Normal’ status once the offending parameter is found to be within
range.

c) Mode (Calibrate / Run) Indicator
The Mode (Calibrate / Run) output indicates when a zero calibration or a manually
requested forced zero back purge is in progress. This indicator will be in the ‘Run’ state
unless one of the following is true:
• a clock triggered (auto) zero calibration sequence is in progress.
• a manually requested zero calibration sequence is in progress.
• the analyzer has been placed in the ‘Force Zero’ mode (manually).
• the analyzer is not receiving mains power.
When this indicator is in the ‘Calibrate’ state, the analyzer is not measuring the process
tail gas. When, during a calibration sequence, the zero calibration adjustment is
complete, this indicator is held in the ‘Calibrate’ state for a period of time specified by the
Zero Hold Interval configuration parameter. This buffer period allows the analyzer to draw
process gas and commence measurement before clearing the ‘Calibrate’ indicator. At the
expiration of the Zero Hold Interval, this indicator returns to the ‘Run’ state.
d) Control (Manual / Auto) Indicator
The Control (Manual / Auto) output indicates the validity of the analog output signals.
When this indication is in the ‘Auto’ state, the analyzer believes that output data are real
and current measurements of the tail gas process stream. Under conditions where the
validity of the output data is suspect, the analyzer places the Control flag in the ‘Manual’
state. This indicator will be in the ‘Auto’ state only when ALL of the following are
true:
• the Status indicator is in the ‘Normal’ state (i.e. no instrument fault).
• the Mode indicator is in the ‘Run’ state (i.e. not in calibration).
• the computer’s On Line / Off Line switch in is the ‘On Line’ position (i.e. not being
serviced).
• the analyzer is receiving mains power.
The purpose of this indicator is to signify when the analyzer outputs are suitable for use
as closed loop control inputs. When this indicator is in the ‘Manual’ state, no control
action should be taken on the basis of the analyzer output signals. This indicator is
generated on the basis of the other analyzer indicators, as well as the condition of the
manual ‘On Line / Off Line’ button on the display. The Control flag state is automatically
returned to ‘Auto’ once the offending condition (s) has cleared.
When in ‘Manual’, Track and Hold outputs are held.
e) Purge Fail Indicator
The Purge Fail indicator indicates the status of the analyzer’s safety purge. If the proper
purge pressure is maintained in the control cabinet, the Purge Fail Indicator will show
normal. If the purge pressure drops to an unsafe level, then the Purge Fail Indicator will
indicate a fault.

Section 4 System Control
4.1 The User Interaction Program - Overview

The system includes an onboard computer, display panel and a hand held keypad that is
local to the analyzer. As an alternative, a web based graphical user interface (GUI) can be
used to view and enter information on a remote basis.
4.2 Using the Onboard Display and Hand Held Keypad
4.2.1 The Onboard Display

The main screen of the onboard display is presented in Figure 4-1. There are six panels
which are accessed via pressing the Panel Prev or Panel Next buttons on the keypad (Figure
4-2). The various panels are described in Section 4.3-4.8. The main panel presents the
present air demand, historical air demand, the present level of various gases, status of the
relays and access to the Manual Zero and Back Purge function.
Figure 4-1: Main Screen of the Onboard Display (Analysis 1 Panel)

The green dot in the upper right corner indicates that the system is monitoring a sample. If
the Back Purge function is selected (see Section 4.3.5), the system is performing a Manual
Zero operation (Section 4.3.4) or if the system is offline, the dot will be red. This dot is
common to all panels.
4.2.2 The Hand Held Keypad

The hand held keypad (Figure 4-2) is used to navigate between the various panels and enter
information.
Figure 4-2: Hand Held Keypad
The buttons on the keypad provide the following:

• Panel Prev - Changes the active panel to the previous panel.
• Panel Next - Changes the active panel to the next panel.
• Field Prev - Moves the cursor to the previous entry on the active panel for editing.
• Field Next - Moves the cursor to the next entry on the active panel for editing.
• Home - Returns to the Analysis 1 panel.
• Purge - Toggles from Back Purge to Sample.
• Del - Deletes the last numerical value.
• Exit - Erases the current input
• Enter - Used to enter numerical information on various tabs.

4.3 The Analysis 1 Tab
The Analysis 1 tab (Figure 4-1) presents a summary of the present status of the system
4.3.1 Online/Offline Button

Clicking the Online / Off Line button changes the status from On Line (green) to Off Line (red)
and vice-versa. When the analyzer is changed to Off Line, the relay indication for Control is
forced to the Manual state (amber).
The state of the On Line / Off Line button does not affect the operation of the analyzer. The
ability to remotely signal plant operations using the relay output of the Control (in conjunction
with the On Line / Off Line button) has been incorporated as a convenience to the user. The
On Line / Off Line function essentially provides a method of signaling that the analyzer data is
invalid (undergoing maintenance or servicing).
When returning the analyzer to On Line status, the relay indication for Control will return to
the Auto state only if no fault or calibration conditions exist.
The plot displays the air demand as a function of time. The range for the x and y axes can be
edited as described in Section 4.8.
4.3.2 Air Demand, H2 S, SO2, COS and Svap Fields

The Air Demand, H2 S, SO2, COS and Svap fields indicate the present values of these
parameters and cannot be edited. The analyzer physical scaling is optimized for the
measurement of the typical on-ratio concentrations of H2S, SO2, and COS. Sulfur vapor
(Svap) is monitored to indicate when there may be a problem with the cooling finger in the
probe.

4.3.3 Relay Indicator Fields
The relay indicators show the state of the analyzer outputs:
a) Status
Normal (Green) status indicates that the system is working properly
Fault (Red) status indicates that the computer has detected an error in one of the critical
analyzer functions. The Status indicator and alarm relay are placed in a fault state. The
analyzer will go into the backpurge mode and instrument air will flow through the cell. An
occurrence of a fault status automatically forces the ‘Control’ to Manual.
b) Service
Normal (Green) status indicates that service is not required
Warning (yellow) indicates that the computer has detected that one of the parameters for
a warning condition is out of range. This indicates that service is requested but not
required immediately. The analyzer continues to function normally, producing usable
outputs.
c) Mode
Run (Green) status indicates that the system is in Run mode
Calibrate (Amber) indicates that a zero calibrate sequence is in progress. At the end of
the calibration sequence the Mode indicator returns to Run. A manually initiated Force
Zero condition also causes a Calibrate mode. The mode alarm relay contacts are
changed in conjunction with the indicator. An occurrence of the Calibrate mode
automatically forces the Control to Manual.
d) Control
Auto (Green) indicates that the analyzer output signals are deemed to be a valid
measurement of the process gas stream and may be used for control purposes if desired.
Manual (amber) indicates that the analyzer output signals should be assumed to be
invalid (with respect to process stream measurement) and should not be used for control
purposes. The analyzer automatically forces the Control indicator to Manual in case of
any analyzer fault, a calibration sequence in progress (either manual or auto), or a user
initiated Off Line request

4.3.4 Manual Zero
The Manual Zero button starts the zero calibration sequence of the analyzer which
incorporates the checking and adjusting of the instrument zero (baseline). No span correction
is required under normal circumstances on an installed analyzer. The calibration sequence is
identical whether triggered manually or automatically.
When triggered, the calibration sequence proceeds in the following order:
a) The Mode relay output changes to Calibrate and the Control relay output changes to
Manual.
b) Zero gas is introduced into the measurement cell and is allowed to purge the
measurement cell for the number of seconds specified by the Zero Purge Interval
configuration parameter (Section 4.8).
c) At the conclusion of the Zero Purge Interval, the computer averages the last ten (10)
spectrometer scans and determines a new reference scan vector (captures the new zero
value).
d) The analyzer waits for the number of seconds specified by the Zero Hold Interval
parameter of the configuration data (Section 4.8.4)
e) During this period, process sample gas is drawn into the measurement cell and the
displayed concentration values will rise from zero to the measured values. The Zero Hold
Interval allows the analyzer concentration outputs to stabilize at on-line values before the
controller updates the outputs.
f) The Mode relay output changes to Run and Control relay outputs changes to Auto at the
expiration of the Zero Hold Interval (barring a pre-existing fault condition).
4.3.5 Back Purge

The default condition of the analyzer is to have instrument air flowing through the sample cell.
When Back Purge is selected, the analyzer sampling system is continuously back purged
with zero gas. This is useful as a precursor to maintenance activities or when long term
purging is required.
4.3.6 Graphic Display

The Graphic display of the air demand is updated once per second. The time and intensity
scales can be set on the Config panel (Section 4.8).

4.4 Analysis 2 Panel
The Analysis 2 panel (Figure 4-3) presents the present H2S and SO2 concentrations in a
single graphic window. The default full scale values and the time scale can be set on the
Config panel (Section 4.8) a range between 0% and the configured full scale analog output
concentration. The default full scale values are determined at software restart to a range
between ± the configured full scale analog output value for the Air Demand signal.
Figure 4-3: Analysis 2 Panel
The default full scale values and the time scale can be set on the Config panel (Section 4.8)
using a range between 0% and the configured full scale analog output concentration. The
default full scale values are determined at software restart to a range between ± the
configured full scale analog output value for the signals.
The Cell Pressure and Temperature fields indicate the instantaneous readings for these
parameters, updated every second.

4.5 Indicators Panel
The Indicators panel (Figure 4-4) is used to present details of the last 25 fault and warning
events. The current status of each of the items is indicated on the right side and the last 25
events are indicated on the grid.
Green - System is functioning within the accepted range
Yellow - System requires service
Red - System is not functioning properly
To clear the present display, use the Field Next or Field Prev buttons to activate the Clear
Fault/Warning History button and press Esc.
Figure 4-4: Indicators Panel

4.6 Spectrum Panel
The Spectrum Panel (Figure 4-5) displays the present spectrum and allows the operator to
change the integration time. The Peak Height, First Vector Pixel and Dark Level refer to the
instantaneous readings for those parameters.
Figure 4-5: Spectrum Tab
The Integration time refers to the period of time for which the data is collected to provide a
data point and is a compromise to optimize the resolution while minimizing the noise in the
spectrum. A short integration time will optimize the resolution; however the noise may be
relatively high. If a long integration period is employed, the resolution may be compromised
and small features in the spectrum may be lost, however the noise in the spectrum is
reduced.
The optimum integration time for the present set of conditions can be obtained by pressing
the Optimize Integ. Time button.
If desired, the operator can select the integration time by selecting the Set Integ. Time button
which will present the Integration Period dialog box (Figure 4-6). To change the time, enter
the desired value and pressing Okay.

Figure 4-6: Integration Period Dialog Box
The Factory Reference spectrum refers to a spectrum of zero gas that was saved at the time
of analyzer calibration at the factory. If the Show Factory Reference check box is selected,
the spectrum will be superimposed on the same set of axes as the active spectrum (Figure
4-7).
Figure 4-7: Factory Reference Spectrum Superimposed on Spectrum

New Reference - saves the scan to be used as a reference for calculation without running a
Zero Calibration. The analyzer must be backpurging zero gas before this feature can be
used.
Peak Height - Height of the highest point in the spectrum
First Vector Pixel - corresponds to starting wavelength for the analysis and is spectrometer
dependent.
Dark Level - the signal from dark current
4.7 Absorbance Panel

The Absorbance panel (Figure 4-8) presents the Absorbance spectrum and reports the
concentration of H2 S, SO2, COS and Svap. The range can be edited on the Config panel
(Section 4.8).
Figure 4-8: Absorbance Tab

4.8 Config Panel
The Config panel is used to set a broad range of operating parameters and includes 8 sub-
panels. The Configuration Panel should be accessed only by qualified personnel.
4.8.1 Outputs Sub-Panel

The Outputs sub-panel (Figure 4-9) is used to define analog outputs and SVAP control.
Figure 4-9: Outputs Sub-Panel

a) Analog Output Full Scale - These fields can be used to set the full scale range for the
H2S, SO2 and COS, the Air Demand and whichever parameter is selected for Analog Out
4. If one of these fields is selected, a dialog box similar to that shown in Figure 4-6 is
presented to enter the desired value.
b) Analog Output 4 Setup - The radio button corresponding to the desired parameter to be
output by Analog Out 4 should be selected.
c) SVAP Control - The amount of sulfur vapor (Svap) detected in the tail gas indicates if the
sample probe’s cooling finger is at the optimum temperature. The probe’s cooling finger
temperature is controlled by using a solenoid valve to direct the flow of instrument air
through the finger off and on. The cooling finger temperature can be optimized in 2 ways:
• By Svap – The concentration of sulfur vapor is monitored. If the concentration goes
above a pre set limit, then instrument air will be introduced to the probe’s cooling finger.
• By RTD – The temperature of the tail gas exiting the probe is monitored. If the
temperature goes above a pre set limit then instrument air will be introduced to the
probe’s cooling finger.
4.8.2 Calculation Sub-Panel

The Calculation sub-panel (Figure 4-10) is used to set a broad range of calibration
parameters.
Figure 4-10: Calculation Sub-Panel

To edit a parameter, use the Field Prev or Field Next button to access the field and press
Enter. A dialog box similar to Figure 4-6 will be presented. Enter the desired value, select the
Okay button and press Enter.
When all desired changes have been made, select Save. Selecting Revert will keep the
parameter values that were used before the start of the editing process.
a) Plant Factor - This parameter specifies the Plant Factor term used in the analyzer’s
calculation of Air Demand. The Plant Factor is a gain term applied to the air demand
output used to adapt the process variable (Air Demand) to the plant’s front end air
adjustment capability. Plant Factor is defined as follows:
pf = -Qtg (100) / ([H2S]ag) (Qag)
where:
Qtg = flow rate of the tail gas stream in moles/unit time (typical)
Qag = flow rate of the acid gas feed stream in moles/unit time (typical)
[H2S]ag = molar concentration of H2S in the acid gas feed stream (typical)
PF = plant factor
The value for Plant Factor is typically in the order of -3.0.
b) Operating Ratio - Under stoichiometric concentrations of H2S and SO2 ([H2S] / [SO2] =
2/1) the Air Demand output becomes zero regardless of the plant specific gain factor (F)
when the operating ratio (Rop) is two (2). When the plant specific gain factor (F) is
established for a particular process, the units of Air Demand become ‘percent change
required in process air’. (i.e., a computed Air Demand of +1.5% means that the process
is 1.5% excess in air.) To achieve optimum performance of the Claus Sulfur Recovery
Plant, the Air Demand should be kept near zero.
c) H2S Span - This parameter specifies the span factor utilized for the H2S concentration
display and output. This value should always be close to 1.0.
Any deviation of the H2S span parameter will impact the output calibration
of the analyzer.
d) SO2 Span - This parameter specifies the span factor utilized for the SO2 concentration
display and output. This value should always be close to 1.0.
Any deviation of the SO2 span parameter will impact the output calibration
of the analyzer.
e) COS Span - This parameter specifies the span factor utilized for the COS concentration
display and output. This parameter (when used) should always be close to 1.0.
f) SVAP Span - This parameter specifies the span factor utilized for the SVap
concentration. This parameter (when used) should always be close to 1.0.
g) CS2 Span - This parameter specifies the span factor utilized for the CS2 concentration.
This parameter (when used) should always be close to 1.0.

h) Cell Length - Indicates the cell length of the measuring cell. This value is used in the
calculation of the gas concentrations.
i) Fixed Temperature - To select Fixed Temperature, click on the e Fixed Temperature

on/off field using the Field Next button on the keypad. Use the Enter key to toggle the x
on and off in this field. If the x is present, the analyzer will use the temperature indicated
here when calculating the concentration of the various gases If the x is not present, the
analyzer will use the live value for cell temperature when calculating the concentration of
the various gases.
j) Fixed Pressure - To select Fixed Pressure navigate to the Fixed Pressure on/off field
using the Field Next button on the keypad. Use the Enter key to toggle the x on and off in
this field. If the x is present, the analyzer will use the pressure indicated here when
calculating the concentration of the various gases. If the x is not present, the analyzer
will use the live value for cell pressure when calculating the concentration of the various
gases.

4.8.3 Display
The Display sub-panel (Figure 4-11) is used to set the X and Y range for the display on the
Analysis 1 and Analysis 2 panels.
Figure 4-11: Display Sub-Panel
To edit a parameter, use the Field Prev or Field Next button to access the field, enter the
desired value for the parameter via the keypad and press Enter.
The X range is from 1-15 min and the Y range is from 0.1 to 1000.
The LCD Backlight field is used to adjust the backlighting of the display to allow the user to
adjust for ambient lighting. The slide bar or the buttons can be used to set the desired
amount of backlighting.

4.8.4 Timers/Alarms
The Timers/Alarm panel is presented in Figure 4-12.
Figure 4-12: Timers/Alarms Sub-pane
To edit a parameter, use the Field Prev or Field Next button to access the field. A dialog box
similar Figure 4-6 will be presented. Enter the desired value for the parameter via the keypad
and press Enter.

a) Timers
Auto Cal Interval - The time period between automatic calibrations. The range is
0 – 16,666 minutes. This parameter defines the integer time interval, in minutes, between
autocalibration cycles. A value of zero (0) disables the auto-calibration function. An auto-
calibration is simply an automated Manual Zero sequence. Typical values are between
60 (once every hour) and 1440 (once every day). The auto-calibration will not run if the
analyzer is in a fault condition.
Zero Purge Interval - The length of time (integer number of seconds) that zero gas is
allowed to flush the measurement cell during the purging part of the calibration sequence,
before a new Reference value is computed. The interval must be at least ten (10)
seconds longer than the time typically required to flush the measurement cell of the
sample. During the last ten (10) seconds of this interval, data is accumulated for the
computation of the new ‘Reference’ value. The interval is typically greater than fifteen
(15) seconds.
The Auto Cal Interval is timed from the completion of the last zero
sequence, whether manually or automatically initiated.
Zero Hold Interval - The length of time (integer number of seconds) that the relay outputs
and indicators are held in a calibration state after a new zero has been established.
During this time interval, process sample gas is aspirated into the measurement cell and
the concentration outputs climb to actual readings. At the expiration of this interval, relay
outputs and indicators are returned to a valid data state. This value is typically fifteen (15)
seconds.
b) Temperature Control
Cell Setpoint -This parameter specifies the temperature control setpoint of the
measurement cell in degrees C (ºC). This set point is typically 150oC.
Cell Prop Band -This parameter specifies the proportional term (in percent) used in the
PID temperature control algorithm for the measurement cell heater. This value is typically
1.0%.
Cabinet Set Point (ºC) - This parameter specifies the set point temperature, in degrees C
(ºC), of the control cabinet. This value is typically 35ºC. If the cabinet set point
temperature is exceeded, the cabinet cooling air solenoid is energized to deliver air to the
cabinet Vortec cooler.
Cabinet Deadband (ºC) - This parameter specifies the control cabinet set point deadband
in degrees C (ºC). This parameter is typically set to 5 or more to reduce the number of
solenoid cycles.
Probe Set Point (ºC) - This parameter specifies the set point temperature, in degrees C
(ºC), at which the gas sample at the probe outlet is to be maintained by the probe cooler.
This value is typically 110-120ºC. This parameter is used only when a probe RTD is
installed and the Control with RTD function is selected.
Probe Deadband (ºC) - This parameter specifies the probe set point deadband, in
degrees C (ºC). This parameter is typically set to 5 or more to reduce the number of

solenoid cycles. This parameter is used only when a probe RTD is installed and the
Control with RTD function is selected.
c) Alarms
Low Cell (ºC) - This parameter specifies the set point temperature, in degrees C (ºC),
which will cause a Low Cell Temperature fault. When the measured cell temperature falls
below this value, the analyzer is placed in a Fault Delay condition. The relay outputs and
Status indicator are forced to ‘Fault’, and the Control indicator is forced to ‘Manual’.
There is a three (3) degree deadband imposed on this alarm. The alarm will clear when
the measured cell temperature rises to more than 3ºC above the set point. If at the time
of clearing, no other fault conditions exist, the analyzer will return to a normal operating
condition. The relay outputs and Status indicator will return to Normal and the Control
indicator will return to Auto. This value is typically 135ºC.
Low Probe (ºC) - This parameter specifies the set point temperature, in degrees C (ºC),
measured at the probe outlet which will cause a Low Probe Temperature fault. When the
measured probe temperature falls below this value, the analyzer is placed in a Fault
Delay condition. The relay outputs and Status indicator are forced to ‘Fault’, and the
Control indicator is forced to ‘Manual’. There is a three (3) degree deadband imposed on
this alarm. The alarm will clear when the measured probe temperature rises to more than
3ºC above the set point. If at the time of clearing, no other fault conditions exist, the
analyzer will return to a normal operating condition. The relay outputs and Status
indicator will return to ‘Normal’ and the Control indicator will return to ‘Auto’. This value is
typically 100ºC. This parameter is used only when a probe RTD is installed and the
Control with RTD function is selected.
High S8 Warning - Level of Sulfur vapour concentration that will reduce the sensitivity of
measurement of the other species.
High S8 Fault - Level of sulfur vapour concentration that will cause plugging of the
sample system.
4.8.5 Network Sub Panel

The Network sub-panel is presented in Figure 4-13. The parameters on this sub-panel are set
during manufacturing and are not editable by the user.
The information under the Network column shows the connection data for the web GUI.
The information under the Direct Connect column shows the connection data for the laptop
Ethernet port.

Figure 4-13: Network Sub-Panel

Section 5 Web Based Operation
5.1 Overview
The Tail Gas Analyzer can be monitored, configured and controlled by use of a Web GUI on
a personal computer. The Web GUI can be used to interface to the analyzer in two ways:
through a local area network or by direct connection. The analyzer will have a different IP
address for the network connection and for the direct connection.
The IP addresses of the analyzer for the network connection and for the local connection are
shown on the local display of the analyzer by using the keypad to navigate to the
Config/Network panel (Figure 4-13).
To establish a connection to the analyzer with the Web GUI, simply type the IP address of the
analyzer into the address line of any web browser.
Changes that are made via the Web GUI and saved to the analyzer will be
shown on the local display.
When communication between the remote computer and the analyzer is established, the
Analysis page is presented. The left side of the page contains a menu which is used to
access the various pages of the program and the right side presents information about the
status of the system and plots showing the most recent data as described in Section 5.2.
The various pages in the program can be accessed by expanding the list with the + sign and
clicking on the desired page. As an example, Figure 5-1 shows the expanded Analysis
section, which has five pages.
Figure 5-1: Program Menu
When you access a page, the bottom of the left column will present a short explanation of the
items on the page and provide information about entering parameter values.

5.2 Analysis Section
5.2.1 Analysis Page

The Analysis page includes a display (Figure 5-2) containing the present concentration
values, pressure and temperature information, an indication of the present system status, the
Sample/Back Purge and the manual Zero controls and the status of various relays.
Figure 5-2: Analysis Page Information Display
5.2.1.1 Value Display

• Air Demand - The present air demand as defined in Section 1.1.
• H2S - The present value of the concentration of H2S.
• SO2 - The present value of the concentration of SO2.
• COS - The present value of the concentration of COS
• Sulfur Vapor - The present value of the concentration of Sulfur vapor
• Cell Pressure - The pressure inside the measuring cell.
• Cell Temperature - The present temperature of the measuring cell in degrees C (ºC).
• Probe Temperature - The present temperature of the probe outlet gas in degrees C (ºC)
when the RTD probe is installed.
• Cabinet Temperature - The present temperature of the cabinet in degrees C (ºC).
The reported values are live and cannot be edited on this page. The temperature and
pressure setpoints and alarm setpoints for the temperature and pressure can be edited on
the Configuration page (Section 5.3).

5.2.1.2 Status and Control
• Online Status - A green indicator and the word Online is presented if the instrument is
online. A flashing red indicator and the word Offline is presented if the unit is offline.
The state of the Online/Offline button does not affect the operation of the analyzer. The
ability to remotely signal plant operations using the relay output of the Control indicator (in
conjunction with the Online/Offline button) has been incorporated as a convenience to the
user. The Online/Offline function essentially provides a method of signaling to the operator
that the analyzer data is invalid (i.e. the system is undergoing maintenance or servicing).
When returning the analyzer to Online status), the relay indicator for Control (see below) will
return to the Auto state only if no fault or calibration conditions exist.
• Sample/Backpurge - A green indicator and the word Sample is presented if sample is
being monitored. A flashing red indicator and the words Back Purge is presented if zero
gas is being monitored. The option of sample or back purge is effected by the buttons
directly below the Sample/Backpurge line. The default condition of the analyzer is to have
zero gas flowing through the cell.
• Manual Zero - The Manual Zero button starts the zero calibration sequence of the analyzer
which incorporates the checking and adjusting of the instrument zero (baseline). No span
correction is required under normal circumstances on an installed analyzer. The calibration
sequence is identical whether trigger manually or automatically.
When triggered, the calibration sequence proceeds in the following order:
a) The Mode relay outputs changes to Calibrate and the Control relay changes to Manual.
b) The zero gas solenoid is de-energized and zero gas is introduced into the measurement
cell. The zero gas is allowed to purge the measurement cell for the number of seconds
specified by the Zero Purge Time parameter on the Parameters page (Section 5.3.1).
c) At the conclusion of the zero purge interval, the computer averages the last ten (10)
spectrometer scans and determines a new reference scan vector (captures the new zero
value). At this time the zero gas solenoid is de-energized to allow sample gas to flood
the cell.
d) The analyzer waits for the number of seconds specified by the Zero Hold Interval
parameter on the Parameters page (Section 5.3.1).
e) During this period, process sample gas flows into the measurement cell and the
displayed concentration values will rise from zero to the measured values. The Zero Hold
Interval allows the analyzer concentration outputs to stabilize at on-line values before the
outputs are updated.
f) The Mode relay changes to Run and the Control relay output changes to Normal at the
expiration of the Zero Hold Interval (barring a pre-existing fault condition).
• Sample - The Sample button is used to indicate that the sample gas should be allowed
to flow through the system. The Sample/Purge indicator will be green and the word
Sample will be indicated when sample is flowing through the system.

• Back Purge - The Back Purge button is used to indicate that zero gas (purge gas)
should be allowed to flow through the system. The Sample/Purge indicator will be
flashing red and the words Back Purge Sample will be indicated when zero gas is
flowing through the system. When Back Purge is selected, the analyzer sampling
system is continuously back purged with zero gas. This is useful as a precursor to
maintenance activities or when long term purging is required.
• Manual Zero - The Manual Zero button is used to initiate a zero sequence.
5.2.1.3 Relay Indicator Fields

The Relay Indicators show the state of the analyzer outputs:
a) Status
Normal (Green) status indicates that the system is working properly.
Fault (Red) status indicates that the computer has detected an error in one of the critical
analyzer functions. The Status indicator and alarm relay are placed in a fault state. The
analyzer will go into backpurge mode when a fault is detected. An occurrence of a fault
status automatically forces the Control to Manual.
b) Service
Normal (Green) status indicates that service is not required
Warning (Red Flashing) indicates that the computer has detected that one of the
parameters for a warning condition is out of range. This indicates that service is
requested but not required immediately. The analyzer continues to function normally,
producing usable outputs.
c) Mode
Run (Green) status indicates that the system is in Run mode
Calibrate (Red Flashing) indicates that a zero calibrate sequence is in progress. At the
end of the calibration sequence the Mode indicator returns to Run. A manually initiated
Zero operation also causes a Calibrate mode. The mode alarm relay contacts are
changed in conjunction with the indicator. An occurrence of the Calibrate mode
automatically forces the ‘Control’ to Manual.
d) Control
Auto (Green) indicates that the analyzer output signals are deemed to be a valid
measurement of the process gas stream and may be used for control purposes if desired.
Manual (Red Flashing) indicates that the analyzer output signals should be assumed to
be invalid (with respect to process stream measurement) and should not be used for
control purposes. The analyzer automatically forces the Control indicator to Manual in
case of any analyzer fault, a calibration sequence in progress (either manual or auto), or
a user initiated ‘Off Line’ request.

5.2.1.4 Graphic Display
The graphic display of the Air Demand Trend and the H2S/SO2 Trend are updated once per
second (Figure 5-3). The latest reading is at the extreme right of the plot.
Figure 5-:3 Air Demand Trend and H2S/SO2 Trend Plots
If desired, the Y axis scaling can be changed. Right click on the plot to present a dialog box
(Figure 5-4) in which the desired Ymin and Ymax can be entered.
Figure 5-4: Y-Axis Range Dialog Box

5.2.2 Calibration Matrix Page
The Calibration Matrix page (Figure 5-5) allows for viewing of the calibration matrix used by
the spectrometer for the analysis of the gas.
Click on the page to present the calibration matrix used by the spectrometer (Figure 5-3) in
the determination of the gas concentrations. The calibration matrix is uniquely determined for
a particular spectrometer.
Figure 5-5: Calibration Matrix

If a spectrometer is replaced, a new calibration matrix must be loaded onto
the system computer. Consult Galvanic Applied Sciences for the
procedure.
The calibration matrix is a 9 x 530 element array used in conjunction with the computed
absorbance vector to determine the concentration of the various gases present in the
measurement cell. Galvanic Applied Sciences, Inc. determines the calibration matrix by
incorporating the molar absorptivity data of the gases with the specific spectral resolution and
sensitivity characteristics of a particular spectrometer. The purpose of displaying the contents
of the calibration matrix is to provide a means of matrix identification, should the need arise.
5.2.3 Indicators Page

The Indicators page (Figure 5-6) is used to present details of the last 25 fault and warning
events. The last 25 events are indicated on the grid and the most recent report is on the right
side. A discussion of the causes and remedies for the faults is presented in Section 7.2.
Figure 5-6: Indicators Page
The colours used on the Indicator page are:

• Green - System is functioning within the accepted range
• Red - System is not functioning properly

5.2.4 Spectrum Curve Page
The Spectrum Curve page (Figure 5-7) displays the present spectrum and lets the operator
change the integration time. The spectrum data is updated every second.
Figure 5-7: Spectrum Curve
The X and Y coordinates of a data point on the curve can be determined by moving the
mouse over the desired point on the spectrum.
The Display Factory Reference check box is used to indicate that the factory reference
spectrum should be superimposed on the collected spectrum. This feature is useful in
checking the system
The Peak Height, First Vector Pixel and Dark Level refer to the instantaneous readings for
those parameters.

The Integration time refers to the period of time for which the data is collected to provide a
data point and is a compromise to optimize the resolution while minimizing the noise in the
spectrum. A short integration time will optimize the resolution; however the noise may be
relatively high. If a long integration period is employed, the resolution may be compromised
and small features in the spectrum may be lost, however the noise in the spectrum is
reduced.
The optimum integration time for the present set of conditions can be obtained by pressing
the Optimize Integ. Time button. The analyzer must be in Backpurge mode before the
spectrometer’s integration time can be optimized.
If desired, the operator can select the integration time by selecting the Set Integ. Time button;
this will present the Integration Period dialog box to set the time.
The Panorama field can be used to select a sub-section of the spectrum for viewing. To
zoom in on a section of the spectrum, click the Stop Polling check box and then use the
mouse to draw a box around the area of interest.
The Save Spectrum button accesses a dialog box to save the present spectrum in CSV
format.
5.2.5 Absorbance Page

The Absorbance page (Figure 5-8) presents the Absorbance spectrum and reports the
concentration of H2 S, SO2, COS and Sulfur Vapor. The range can be edited on the Config
panel (Section 4.8).

Figure 5-8: Absorbance Curve
The Panorama field can be used to select a section of the spectrum for viewing. Use the
mouse to define the region of the spectrum that is to be viewed. The Stop Polling box must
be checked before the Panorama View can be used to zoom in on areas of the absorbance
curve.
If desired, the operator can edit the Y by selecting the Change Absorbance Curve Display Y
Axis button. This will present a dialog box to enter the desired upper and lower limits similar
to Figure 5-2.
The present concentration of each gas is indicated on the bottom of the page.

5.3 Parameters Section

Temperature Enable can be edited by using the pull down selection menu.
d) Press Enter on the keyboard.
e) Press the Save to Unit button. This will cause the changed parameters to be
implemented in the analyzer.
Pressing the Revert button before pressing the Save to Unit button will undo the edit.
5.3.2 Modbus
5.3.2.1 Overview
The Modbus page (Figure 5-10) allows the user to set up the tail gas analyzer to output data
in 3 varieties of MODBUS communication protocol - Enron, Modicon 16, and Modicon
Floating Point. As there are a large number of possible configurations for Modbus, and every
user may desire a slightly different configuration, this manual will only cover the basics of
Modbus configuration. If the user requires assistance in setting up a Modbus configuration,
the Service Department at Galvanic Applied Sciences Inc. will be pleased to assist in
configuring the unit as desired.
Figure 5-10: MODCON - MODCON32 Format

To set up a new Modbus list, press Change to Update Mode to present a dialog box for the
password. After the password is entered, the New Load and Save buttons will be activated.
To select a different Modbus type, press New to present the Modbus Type dialog box (Figure
5-11).
Figure 5-11: Modbus Type Dialog Box
Select the desired Modbus type and press OK. As an example, if the ENRON selection is
made, the presentation appears as shown in Figure 5-12.
Figure 5-12: MODBUS-ENRON Format
The bottom two lines of the page include a number of items that relate to communications
parameters. The user should indicate the desired Modbus address for the analyzer in the
Address field and indicate if Endian Swap and Register Swap are desired.

Endian Swap and Register Swap are used to manipulate how the data is transmitted and
they only apply to Modicon Modbus data. In Modicon Modbus, floating point numbers are
transmitted in 2 16 bit words. Endian Swap determines if the most significant bit is transmitted
first or if the least significant bit is transmitted first for each word. Register swap determines if
the portion of the number before the decimal place is transmitted in the first word or if the
portion of the number after the decimal place is transmitted in the first word.
The various items on the Available points listing on the left side of the tab can be accessed
by clicking on the + sign. The items in this listing can be used to populate the Modbus items
list on the right side of the tab by dragging and dropping them into the Modbus list.
5.3.2.2 The Enron Modbus Protocol

An Enron Modbus list contains 4 nodes on the Modbus tree, Coils, Short Integers, Long
Integers, and Floating Point (Figure 5-11). Coils are Boolean data points which have a
value of either 0 or 1. To that end, data points entered into the Coils node would usually be
data points that are simple status indicators, indicating the status of a given alarm, input, or
output. If the value of the data point is 0, the status of the logged alarm, relay, etc, would be
off, and if the value is 1, the status would be on. Short integers are 16 bit whole numbers with
either positive or negative sign. Long integers are 32 bit whole numbers with either positive or
negative sign. Floating point values are also 32 bit numbers, but unlike the integers they do
not have a sign, but they do have decimal points.
5.3.2.3 The Modicon 16 Protocol

A Modicon 16 Modbus list contains 4 nodes on the Modbus tree. They are Output Status,
Input Status, Input Register, and Output Register. The Input and Output Status nodes
contain Boolean data points. Data points in the Input Status node are able to be written to.
Data points in the Output Status node are read-only, so this node would contain data points
such as alarm, input, and output status that cannot be changed remotely.
Output Registers are data points that are read-only outputs of analyzer data, such as
calculated concentration. Please note that Modicon 16 only outputs data as 16 bit numbers,
so the display of decimal points in this type of Modbus list is not possible.
Input Registers contains non-Boolean data points that can be written to.
5.3.2.4 Modicon with Floating Point Protocol

The Modicon with Floating Point (MODICON 32) list contains 4 main nodes on the Modbus
tree. However, the Input and Output Registers contain sub-nodes. They are Register Short,
Register Long, and Register Float. Thus, the input and output registers can output data in
16-bit, 32-bit, or 32-bit with floating point in the Modicon with Floating Point Modbus list.

5.4 Factory Section

Section 6 Maintenance
6.1 Overview
The system is designed for automatic trouble-free operation under the continuous supervision
of the internal computer. Maintenance requirements include:
• Routine preventative maintenance (Section 6.2)
• Periodic operations to optimize performance (Section 6.3)
A list of recommended spare parts is provided in Section 11.
6.2 Routine Preventative Maintenance

6.2.2 Maintenance Check Out Procedure
It is recommended that this maintenance check be performed once per

week and the Maintenance Record Sheet be completed. The record sheet
can be copied and it is recommended that the completed record sheets are
saved in a secure location. The information on the sheets can provide a
time based record of system operation and may be useful for
troubleshooting.
The following procedure should be performed on a periodic basis and the Maintenance
Record Sheet should be completed (Figure 6-1):
a) Observe the present status of the analyzer via the Analysis 1 panel. Record any fault
conditions or abnormal values. Record the displayed values for the cell and probe
temperatures.
b) Turn the analyzer Off Line by clicking the On Line button.
c) Place the analyzer in the back purge state by clicking the Back Purge check box. The
concentration output should stabilize to a near zero reading within seconds. Record the
stabilized concentration output values. (This offset from zero will vary based on length of
time since the last calibration cycle, whether manual or automatic).
d) Access the Spectrum panel. Observe the raw scan signal and compare the shape of the
scan trace to the standard. Note any extreme deviations from the standard scan trace.
Record the peak value of the trace in approximate A/D counts (±1,000).
e) If the signal peak height is less than 16,000 counts then the signal peak height should be
optimized. This can be done by pressing the Optimize Integ. Time field on the Spectrum
panel.
f) Return to the Analysis 1 Panel and observe the concentration values (they should be
very close to zero). Verify that there are no faults indicated. It is worthwhile to perform a
manual zero at this time
g) Return the analyzer to Sample mode by removing the back purge state. Observe and
record how long it takes for the concentration readings to stabilize at the process value
(typically this should take less than ten (10) seconds). A long response time to a
stabilized sample reading may indicate plugging of the sample system or filter. Record
any observed anomalies and/or valve position adjustments made.
h) Turn the analyzer On Line by clicking the On Line / Off Line switch.

6.3 Changing the Anti-Solarant Solution
Radiation generated by the analyzer’s broadband UV Source Lamp in the deep UV region
(less than 200 nm) is capable of degrading the optical fibres. An optical fibre directly exposed
to the broadband source will develop an absorption band that reduces fibre transmittance at
wavelengths below 250 nm.
The degree of fibre degradation is a function of accumulated exposure time. The Anti-
Solarant Solution incorporated into the analyzer provides a high-pass optical filter with a
sharp cut-off region. The Anti-Solarant Solution blocks the deep UV radiation which is the
cause of the fibre degradation.
The Anti-Solarant Solution will eventually degrade to the point where it absorbs too much
energy causing the integration period to approach the maximum of 1000 ms. The frequency
of changing the Anti-Solarant Solution varies between one week and several months,
depending on the analyzer conditions. When the analyzer is exhibiting a loss of spectrometer
signal level (a high integration period required to reach 32,000 counts), the most probable
cause is degraded Anti-Solarant Solution.
Wear protective UV eye glasses at all times if the optical fibres are removed
while the UV Source is powered up.
The control cabinet door should NOT be opened while the analyzer is
energized UNLESS the area is known to be non-hazardous.
The Anti-Solarant Solution is to be changed only by authorized personnel.
The fluid holder may be warm. After the lamp is turned off, wait until the
solution cools before proceeding with this operation.
Refer to the Control Cabinet Components drawing while performing the following operation:
Always handle optical fibres carefully and avoid any contact with the end of
the fibre. Before proceeding with the following procedure, ensure that the
analyzer is Off Line and purged with zero gas.
a) Remove the Source optical fibre from the fluid holder bracket on the UV Lamp Supply.
Let the fibre hang freely and ensure that the end does not contacting anything.
It is suggested that a protective plastic cap is placed onto the end of the
fibre. This fibre is removed from the light path to protect it from unfiltered
exposure to the UV Source Lamp).
b) Loosen the light shield retaining screw on the bottom right-side of the fluid holder and
remove the light shield.

c) Loosen the fluid holder locking screw (s) on the left-side of the fluid holder using a 7/64"
ball driver.
d) Lift the fluid holder from the base by grasping the fluid holder filler plug. Note the
approximate level of Anti-Solarant Solution remaining in the chamber (it should be about
75%).
e) Remove the filler plug from the top of the fluid holder.
f) Dump the old Anti-Solarant Solution out.
The Anti-Solarant Solution is not hazardous to the environment.
g) Rinse the chamber with a small amount of new Anti-Solarant Solution. Shake and empty.
h) Fill the fluid holder with new Anti-Solarant Solution. Tilt and tap the fluid holder to remove
any air bubbles that may form.
Take care not to touch the Anti-Solarant Solution directly as the oils from
your hands will contaminate the solution.
i) Replace the fluid holder filler plug.
j) Replace the fluid holder into the bracket. Orient the fluid holder so that the face with the
word LAMP engraved on it is towards the UV Lamp Supply.
DO NOT touch the fluid holder windows as dirt, grease and human skin oil
will affect their performance.
k) Tighten the fluid holder locking screw (s) on the left-side of the fluid holder using a 7/64"
ball driver.
l) Reinstall the light shield and tighten the light shield retaining screws on the bottom right-
side of the fluid holder.
m) Remove the protective plastic cap from the fiber and reconnect the Source optical fibre.
n) Reoptimize the spectrometer energy level as described in Section 6.4

6.4 Optimizing the Spectrometer Energy Level
Optimization of the Spectrometer Energy Level is periodically required to maintain a sufficient
signal to noise ratio on the spectrometer output signal as the spectral output signal from the
spectrometer will deteriorate over time. The normal causes of this deterioration are:
• Degrading Anti-Solarant Solution
• Aging UV Source Lamp (output reduces over time)
• Dirty cell windows
• Dirty optics
• Optical fibre problem
For convenience, the energy level of the spectrometer output signal is gauged by observing
the peak level as displayed on the Spectrum panel of analyzer or the Analysis/Spectrum
page on the Web GUI. When optimizing the spectrometer signal, the normal target value for
the peak value is 32000 counts (+/- 500).
The spectrometer energy level can be optimized manually (for special cases), or
automatically as a function of the analyzer. The automatic function will always target 32000
counts.
Before proceeding with either procedure below, ensure that the analyzer is
‘Off Line’ and purged with zero gas.
6.4.1 Automated Optimization

a) Place the analyzer in back purge mode. This can be done by accessing the Back Purge
field on the Analysis 1 panel and pressing Enter to place an X in the box.
b) Access the Spectrum panel, navigate to the Optimize Integ Time field and press Enter.
c) Return to the Analysis 1 Panel.
d) Request a Manual Zero by navigating to the “Manual Zero” field and pressing Enter.
e) Remove the Zero mode by accessing the Sample field and then pressing Enter to put an
x in the box, thus allowing the analyzer to return to normal sampling.

6.4.2 Manual Optimization
a) Place the analyzer in Zero mode by accessing the Analysis 1 panel, place an X in the
Back Purge field and pressing Enter.
b) Access the Spectrum panel.
c) If the peak level is between 25,000 and 32,000 then no adjustment is required at this
time.
d) If adjustment is necessary, optimize the peak signal height to 32,000 counts. Navigate to
the “Set Integ Time” field and press Enter to display the Integration Period dialog box.
Type the new integration period in the New Value field and press Enter. After several
seconds, the new raw signal will be displayed. New values for the Integration Period can
be entered until the peak height is 32 000 counts +/- 1000 counts.
e) Once the peak height has been optimized, record the peak height value and the resulting
integration period.
f) Return to the Analysis 1 panel.
g) Request a Manual Zero by pressing the Manual Zero button and pressing Enter
f) Remove the Zero mode by navigating to the Sample field and pressing Enter to put an x
in the box, thus allowing the analyzer to return to normal sampling.

• Cell assembly is not securely clamped to the heaters
• Oven heater(s) is inoperative
• Set-point for low temperature alarm is incorrect
High High Sulfur • The sulfur vapor concentration in the sample has risen
to unacceptable levels. This usually indicates that the
probe’s cold finger is too warm.
Measure Range • UV lamp is nearing the end of its useful life (see
Reference Range Section 7.3)
• UV lamp is not operating (see Section 7.3)
• Anti-Solarant needs changing or has been changed
using expired solution
• Cell windows are dirty

Low Reference Peak • UV lamp is nearing the end of its useful life (see
Section 7.3)
High Sulfur Vapor • The sulfur vapor concentration in the cell is
approaching the maximum value. The analyzer
readings are still valid.

7.3 Changing the UV Source Lamp
The UV Source Lamp requires replacement when either the lamp will not start, or when the
energy output of the lamp has diminished to a point where a peak spectrometer output level
of 20,000 on the spectrum displayed on the Spectrum page cannot be achieved, and the
integration time has exceeded the high integration period warning limit (1000 ms).
The UV Source Lamp will not restart for a period of time after it has been shut off as ignition
of a hot lamp can cause serious problems. If the lamp is turned off or is no longer lit, it may
be worthwhile to wait for 15-20 minutes before restarting it. If the lamp does not start after the
cool down period, it should be replaced as described below:
The normal lifespan of a UV Source Lamp is about six (6) months but longer life spans are
possible in circumstances where the restart count is low.
The lamp life is inversely proportional to the number of restarts on a

particular lamp and the lamp should not be turned off and on often.
An iris is installed on the lamp holder between the lamp and the fluid holder. The iris is preset
at the factory with clean optics and a new lamp to obtain 32,000 counts at a <100 ms
integration period. The setting of the iris is only to be changed in extreme situations.
To change the UV Source Lamp:
a) Place the analyzer in the Offline mode by accessing the Online button on the Analysis 1
page of the analyzer display. Press the Enter key to toggle the green Online button to
red “Offline”.
b) Place the analyzer in back purge mode. This can be done by navigating to the Back
Purge field on the Analysis 1 page and pressing Enter to place an “x” in the box.

7.4 Changing the Fibre Optic Cable (s)
The Fibre Optic Cables will generally only require change-out if they suffer from mechanical
damage or if they have been exposed directly (in the absence of Anti-Solarant Solution) to
the UV Source radiation for definite time periods.
The Fibre Optic Cable ends terminate into SMA type connectors and are intended to be
installed with the Seal body at the control cabinet. There are two cables:
• The shorter of the two fibres connects the UV Source Lamp in the control cabinet to the top
side of the measurement cell in the oven cabinet.
• The longer of the two (2) fibres connects the Spectrometer in the control cabinet to the
bottom side of the measurement cell in the oven cabinet.
The SMA connectors only need to be finger-tight. Do not overtighten the

connectors as this may damage the cable.
To change a Fibre Optic Cable:
a) Click the On Line / Off Line switch to indicate Off Line.
Purge field on the Analysis 1 page and pressing Enter to place an “x” in the box

x) Click the On Line / Off Line switch to indicate that the system is On Line. The system will
automatically restart itself. The analyzer may show a fault and be in Manual (back purge)
mode when put On Line. This is due to a low cell temperature. Once the oven
temperature achieves its set point and the preset time delay expires, the system will
automatically restart.
7.5 Measurement Cell Removal

The measurement cell will require removal only when there is a suspected sampling problem
or if it becomes necessary to change the cell windows and/or O-Rings. A sampling problem
could be due to system plugging or collection of nongaseous material in the measurement
cell.
The measurement cell is to be removed by trained and authorized

personnel only. The oven compartment and all of its components are HOT
(150oC). Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (gloves, eye wear,
clothing etc) if working with hot surfaces or wait until surface have cooled
to safe temperatures before performing maintenance tasks.
Procedure
a) Click the On Line / Off Line switch to indicate that the system is Off Line.
Purge field on the Analysis 1 page and pressing Enter to place an “x” in the box
c) Access the purged control cabinet following proper user company and/or regulatory
agency procedure.

g) Allow zero gas to flow for approximately five (5) minutes to remove all toxic gases from
the sample system.
h) Close the sample inlet valve V5, sample vent valve V3 and then Close the Zero Air Flow
Control valve.
i) Remove the Fibre Optic Cables from both ends of the measurement cell. Carefully hang
the cables in a location where the ends of the cables cannot not make contact with
anything. It is recommended that the ends be covered with the orange protectors after
the fibres have cooled.
j) Loosen one of the cell tubing fittings to vent positive pressure zero gas that may be
trapped in the sample system.
k) To remove the measurement cell assembly, disconnect the three (3) interconnecting
tubing lines. These are:
• Sample Stream
• Vent Stream
• Zero / Purge Air
l) Remove the 6-32 x 3/8" screw securing the cell RTD to the cell block, using a 7/64" ball
driver. Carefully place the cell RTD behind the cell block where it will be out of the way.
m) Loosen the four (4) ¼-20 x 2" heater bracket mounting screws from the cell block face
using a 3/16" ball driver. Before removing the four (4) screws, place your fingers under
the cell block to catch the plate as you release the last screw.
Ensure that the sample and vent stream disconnections are made on the
cell side of the sample and vent block valves.

7.6 Cell Windows Replacement
Under normal operating conditions, cell window replacement is necessary only when the
particular window becomes cracked, chipped, etched or stained to a non-cleanable degree.
Changing the cell windows is most easily accomplished by removing the entire measurement
cell assembly from the oven compartment. It is recommended that the measurement cell
assembly is opened in a clean environment such as a bench top.
Procedure:
a) Remove the cell as described in Section 7.5.
The sample system must be back purged with zero gas prior to
disconnecting any fittings to ensure that the toxic sample gases are swept
clean from the system. The sample inlet and vent block valves must be
closed.
b) With the measurement cell in a vertical position, remove the top cell end cap (large four
(4) sided nut). Leave the SMA fibre connector in place in the cell end cap body.
c) Remove the top O-ring. If it is not on the cell window then it will be in the end cap O-ring
groove. Discard if there is any sign of damage or deformation.
d) Turn the measurement cell over, holding your hand over the open end, and gently shake
until the cell window drops into your hand. Set the window aside on a clean surface.
Remove the bottom O-Ring (if it didn’t drop into your hand with the window). A fine tipped
tool may be required. Discard the O-ring if there is any sign of damage or deformation.
e) Repeat steps a) through d) to remove the other cell window.
f) Inspect both windows for damage and/or contaminants. If the windows are damaged
(chipped, cracked, etc.) discard and replace them with new ones. If the windows are not
damaged, they should be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol, using a non-abrasive lint free
tissue such as KimWipes® or a cotton swab. Thoroughly rinse the cleaned surface with
pharmaceutical grade distilled water. They should be wiped dry using a soft, lint free cloth
or tissue.
Commercially available lens or window cleaning solutions or prepackaged

lens cleaning wipes ARE NOT to be used. These products may contain a
compound which leaves an UV absorbing coating on the optical
component.

g) Inspect the measurement cell body. Clean with isopropyl alcohol, using a nonabrasive lint
free tissue such as KimWipes® or a cotton swab. Thoroughly rinse the cleaned surface
with pharmaceutical grade distilled water and dry completely before reassembly.
h) Hold the measurement cell vertically and install the new bottom O-Ring in the top window
recess, ensuring that it is centered and sitting in the O-Ring seat.
i) Insert the cell window. Ensure that there are no finger prints as these will interfere with
the accuracy of the analysis.
j) Place the top O-ring onto the window and replace the cell end cap. The O-Ring will self-
align as the end cap is tightened. Tighten the end cap to hand-tight only.
k) Repeat steps h) through j) to install the O-rings and window for the other window. Look
through the cell and verify that there is an unobstructed light path. It may be necessary to
remove one or both of the SMA connectors to check the light path. Replace the
connectors to hand-tight when done.
l) When both windows are installed, the measurement cell assembly is ready for
reinstallation as described in Section 7.8.
7.8 Measurement Cell Installation

Refer to the Flow Diagram, the Sample System Components and the Measurement Cell
Assembly drawings while performing these steps.
The measurement cell is to be removed by trained and authorized

personnel only. The oven compartment and all of its components are HOT
(150oC). Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (gloves, eye wear,
Procedure:
a) Place the measurement cell in its approximate position focusing on the engagement of
the Swagelok® fitting connections. Tighten the Swagelok® fitting nuts to finger tight.
b) With your fingers wrapped around the side of the cell block, work the heater bracket plate
into place. Install one (1) of the four (4) ¼-20 x 2" heater bracket screws with a 3/16" ball
driver. A small screwdriver or awl may be used to align the tapped holes in the bracket
with the screw holes in the measurement cell.
c) Install the remaining screws and tighten.
d) Tighten all of the Swagelok® fitting connections that were opened during the
measurement cell removal.
e) Open the Zero Air Flow Control valve to about ½ of a turn. This will pressurize the
measurement cell and related plumbing to about 20 psig. (Keep the isolation valves
closed.)

f) The system is now pressurized and a leak check should be made using a soap and water
solution (e.g. Snoop®). When the system is verified to be leak-tight it can be restarted.
g) Turn the Sample Inlet valve (V5) and the Sample Vent valve (V3) to the On position.
h) Reconnect the fibre optic cables to the cell.
i) Reinstall the cell RTD with the 6-32 x 3/8" screw using a 7/64" ball driver.
j) Replace the oven compartment cover. Ensure that both latches are securely fastened.
k) Close and latch the oven cover.
l) Reconnect the AC Power to the oven heaters by pushing down and snapping closed the
oven heater fuse terminal cover (ACTS:25). The oven cabinet will begin heating to the set
point temperature.
m) Turn the UV Source Lamp on by placing the UV Lamp switch to the On position.
n) Close and latch the control cabinet door.
o) Access the Spectrum panel and optimize the spectrometer energy level by clicking on the
Optimize Integ. Time button.
p) Return to the Analysis 1 panel and perform a Manual Zero by clicking the Manual Zero
button.
q) Remove the Zero mode by removing the x from the Back Purge box.
r) Press the On Line/Off Line switch to place the system On Line. The system will
automatically restart itself.
The oven can take up to two (2) hours to reach operating temperature.
While the cell temperature is below the Cell Low Temperature Set-point, the
system will continue to back purge and maintain an Out of Service
indication to the control room. Barring any additional faults, the system will
automatically return to Sample mode when the cell temperature exceeds
the Cell Low Temperature Set-point plus a 3-degree hysteresis constant.
The analyzer can be left unattended at this point and will return to normal
operation on its own.

7.9 Steam Purging the Sample Probe Assembly
Steam Purging the Sample Probe Assembly is recommended only when a plug in the probe
is suspected and should only be performed as a last resort to avoid the possibility of steam or
condensate introduction to the measurement cell. The residue of some boiler water
chemicals in the measurement cell will cause a loss of spectrometer energy.
Steam Purging the Sample Probe Assembly is to be performed by trained

and authorized personnel only.
Procedure:
a) Click the On Line / Off Line switch to indicate that the system is Off Line.
Purge field on the Analysis 1 page and pressing Enter to place an “x” in the box.
c) Open the oven cabinet door and remove the oven compartment cover.
d) Close valves V1 and V3 (sample and vent line valves). The recommended procedure is
to remove sections of tubing on the measurement cell side of valves V1 and V3, and
install fitting plugs on these valves. This will guarantee that the measurement cell is not
inadvertently exposed to steam or condensate. Steam can be connected to the Probe
Access ports (sample side and/or vent side) on the side of the oven enclosure.
e) The steam supply line should be blown down to clear the line of condensate before
steam connection is made.
f) To commence Steam Purging the Sample Probe Assembly, switch valves V2 and V4 to
the On position. (See Oven Valve labeling for valve identification.)
clothing etc) if you are working with hot surfaces or wait until surface have
cooled to safe temperatures before performing maintenance tasks.
Zero gas will be venting into the oven when the tubing is removed.
g) Replace the oven compartment cover. Ensure that the Fibre Optic Cables are still routed
in the indents to avoid damage when the oven compartment cover is secure.
h) Steam Purge the Sample Probe Assembly for (15 to 30 minutes).

i) When purging is complete, remove the oven compartment cover.
j) Switch valves V2 and V4 to the Off position.
k) Remove the steam connection from the Probe Access ports and replace the sections of
tubing that connect the measurement cell to valves V1 and V3 to allow the back purge air
through the probe.
l) Replace the oven compartment cover. Ensure that the Fibre Optic Cables are still routed

Section 12 The Peripheral Board
12.1 Accessing the Board

To obtain access to the peripheral board set up menus, enter the IP address and port number
of the analyzer followed by “userio.html” into your web browser’s address line as shown
below. See Section 5 for more information about connecting to the analyzer via the web
based GUI.
http://ipi.pip.ipi.pip:PPPPP/userio.html
As an example, if the IP address is 123.456.789.123 and the port number is 12345, enter
http://123.456.789.123:12345/userio.htm
The Peripheral Board menu includes the following two tabs:

• The Status tab (Section 1.2) presents the status of the analog and digital inputs and
outputs.
• The Manual Override tab (Section 1.3) is used to calibrate analog outputs and
activate/deactivate digital relays and solenoids.
The Manual Override tab allows the operator to make changes to the
peripheral board of the instrument. Any change will permanently delete the
present value. Access to these tabs should be restricted to qualified
individuals who understand the impact of any change.

12.2 The Status Tab
12.2.1 Information on the Status Tab

The Status tab (Figure 12-1) presents information about the analog and digital inputs and
outputs of the analyzer. These parameters are provided for reference and cannot be edited
on this tab. Analog Outputs, Relay and Solenoid status can be edited and on the Manual
Override tab (Section 12.3).
Figure 12-1: The Status Tab
The Online LED is green if the system is on-line and red if the system is off-line. The Relays,
Solenoids and Digital Inputs LEDs are red if the function is active and gray if the function is
not active.
The On Board Temperature field provides the temperature of the peripheral board and is an
indication of temperature inside the analyzer cabinet.
The Analog Inputs box shows the current value of each of the four analog inputs in their
calibrated units.
The Calculated Analog Outputs box shows the theoretical value of each of the four analog
outputs.
The Relays Test box shows the status of each of the 4 relay outputs.
The Solenoids Test box shows the status of each of the 4 solenoid valve outputs.

12.3 Manual Override Tab
The Manual Override tab (Figure 12-2) allows the user to view and manually control the
outputs of the analyzer.
To take manual control of the outputs, place a checkmark in the Direct Peripheral Board
Control check box.
This tab allows the operator to make changes to the peripheral board of the
instrument. Any change will permanently delete the present value Access
to these tabs should be restricted to qualified individuals who understand
the impact of any change.
Figure 12-2: Manual Override Tab

12.3.1 Analog Output Fields
Each Analog Output box allows the user to configure, calibrate and test an analog output.
12.3.1.1 Calibrating and Testing the Analog Outputs
To test or calibrate any I/O point, first click on the Direct Peripheral Board
Control checkbox.
To configure/calibrate/test an Analog Output:
a) Place a check mark in the Calibrate Analog Output x check box (the approach is the
same for all four boxes). The fields within the box will become active.
b) Enter the desired Zero and Span values for the output in the Scaled Value/Zero and
Span fields. For example, if the output is to represent 0 - 2 % H2S, enter 0 in the Zero
field and 2 in the Span field.
c) Connect a milli-ammeter to Analog Output x. Note that the analog outputs require
external loop power.
d) Press the Output Zero button. The analog output will attempt to output 4 mA, however it
may not read exactly 4.
e) Enter the reading from the meter in the Meter Reading field and press the Auto Cal
button. This will adjust the Zero output to exactly 4 mA.
f) Press the Output Span button. The analog output will attempt to output 20 mA, however
it may not read exactly 20.
g) Enter the reading from the meter in the Meter Reading field and press the Auto Cal
button. This will adjust the Span output to exactly 20 mA. The analog output is now
calibrated.
h) Test the output by entering the desired mA output in the Test(mA) field and then pressing
the Output Test button. This will force the analog output to generate the entered value.
In this way the analog output loop can be tested at several readings such as 0, 25, 50, 75
and 100 % of scale (4, 8, 12, 16 and 20 mA).
i) Once the Zero value and Span values have been tested, press the Capture button to
implement the changes.
j) Press Permanent Save.

The Description field for the analog output is provided to enter the name of the parameter
being monitored analog output connector.
The Unit field for the analog output is provided to enter the parameter units for the measured
parameter.
The Calculated Value field shows the present value of the output in the calibrated units.
12.3.2 Testing the Digital Inputs

To test a digital Input:
a) Access the Manual Override tab.
b) Select Direct Peripheral Board Control.
c) Connect a switch to the digital input of the peripheral board (terminal P5) or use a jumper
to open and close the digital input.
d) When the discrete input is open, the Digital Input indicator on the Status page will be grey
(not active).
e) When the discrete input is closed, the Digital Input indicator on the Status page will be
red (active).
12.3.3 Testing Digital Outputs

To test a digital output:
a) Access the Manual Override tab.
b) Select Direct Peripheral Board Control.
c) For each digital output, deselect the check box. The output should be 0 and the relay (or
solenoid valve) will be in the de-energized state.
d) For each digital output, select the check box. The output should be 1 and the relay (or
solenoid valve) will be energized.
If desired, you can change the name of a digital output in the text box by
entering the desired name in the appropriate field. After you have entered
the name, press Enter and then press Permanent Save.
