This may include, but is not limited to, lockout/tagout procedures, toxic gas monitoring protocols, personal protection equipment (PPE) requirements, hot work permits and other precautions that address safety concerns related to performing service on process equipment located in hazardous areas.

  • Page 12: Exposure To Process Gases

    SS2100i-1 and SS2100i-2 Analyzer Exposure to process gases 1. Shut off the process gas to the analyzer before any service that would require opening a part of the sample plumbing. 2. Purge the system with nitrogen. 3. Shut off the nitrogen purge before opening any part of the sample system.

  • Page 13: 3: Sample Conditioning System

    3 - S AMPLE ONDITIONING YSTEM Personnel should have a thorough understanding of the operation of the analyzer and the procedures presented here before operating the sample conditioning system (SCS). The process sample at the sample tap may be at a high pressure. A pressure reducing regulator is located at the sample tap to reduce the sample pressure and allow operation of the sample conditioning system at a low pressure.

  • Page 14: Scs Filters

    SS2100i-1 and SS2100i-2 Analyzer SCS filters A guard filter is typically installed at the inlet to the SCS with a fine element to protect the flow controllers, flow meters and pressure regulators from fine particulates. A bypass filter with a fritted metal, glass fiber or polymetric membrane filter may also be in place to remove larger quantities of particulates or entrained liquids and mists.

  • Page 15: Sample Dryer

    Sample Conditioning System Sample dryer All trace measurement applications require the use of a dryer. Typically, these devices are switched into the flowing sample going to the measurement cell to remove the desired component. A spectrum of the sample gas free of H O is acquired and saved in the analyzer controller memory.

  • Page 22: Shutting Down The Scs

    SS2100i-1 and SS2100i-2 Analyzer Shutting Down the SCS Situations may occur that require the shutdown of some or all of the SCS. These circumstances may include short-term shutdown for repairs or parts replacements, for example, or a long-term shutdown of the system for packing and storing.

  • Page 23: To Isolate The Scs For Short-Term Shutdown

    Sample Conditioning System 4. Close the bypass supply shut-off valve. Refer to the analyzer system drawings. If the system will not be out of service for an extended period, it is advised that power remain applied to the sample transport line electric tracer, if applicable, and the sample system enclosure heater.

  • Page 24: To Isolate The Process Sample Tap For Long-Term Shutdown

    SS2100i-1 and SS2100i-2 Analyzer To isolate the process sample tap for long‐term shutdown If the SCS is to be out of service for an extended period, the SCS must be isolated at the process sample tap. The process sample at the sample tap may be at a high pressure. A pressure reducing regulator is located at the sample tap to reduce the sample pressure and allow operation of the SCS at a low pressure.

  • Page 25: Powering Down The Analyzer

    Sample Conditioning System 11. Turn off the AC power to the SCS heater and the sample tracer, if applicable, at the power distribution panel. Although power could be shut off to the sample transport line electric tracer, it is advisable to allow this line to remain heated unless the SCS is to be out of service for an extended period or maintenance is required on the line.

  • Page 26: Periodic Scs Maintenance

    SS2100i-1 and SS2100i-2 Analyzer Periodic SCS Maintenance Due to the chemical properties of the process samples, care must be taken to repair or replace components with proper materials of construction. Maintenance personnel should have a thorough knowledge and understanding of the chemical characteristics of the process before performing maintenance on the SCS.

  • Page 27: Regular Scs Status Check

    Sample Conditioning System The system must be taken out of service during any cleaning of the sample transport line. If liquid makes it into the analyzer SCS, a filter element may become obstructed leading to a decreasing supply pressure or bypass flow. If obstruction of a filter is observed, the filter should be cleaned and the filter element replaced.
