R6000S Operation Manual: Rev. G 1. CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION The PAC R6000S Sulfur in Carbon Dioxide Analyzer provides a safe, reliable automated system for the detection and analysis of sulfur in carbon dioxide. The analyzer section uses a sample combustion and UV fluorescent detection process to perform the analysis.
The sensitivity of the instrument should be restored with the replacement of the aged components. Model R6000S Specifications PAC’s R6000S Sulfur in Carbon Dioxide Process Analyzer is designed to conform to the following specifications: Voltage: 115/230 VAC + 10%, 50/60 Hz, voltage swings should be less than 10%.
When pressed, the auto zero button forces the detector’s voltage output(s) to zero volts and/or 4 PAC R6000S. Zeroing Light (located on auto zero button): Lights up when the instrument is forcing its outputs to zero. Remains lit unit zero is reached.
