  • Page 5: Introduction

    Trace Oxygen Analyzer Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD Introduction The Teledyne Analytical Instruments (TAI) Series 316 Trace Oxygen Analyzer uses a unique Micro-Fuel Cell to measure the concentration of oxygen in a gas stream. The cell has an absolute zero and produces a linear output from the low parts per million (ppm) level through 21% (210,000 ppm) oxygen.
  • Page 6: Features

    Panel or Bulkhead Mounting. Two standard versions of the Series 316 Series are available. A panel mounted enclosure houses the Model 316RA, and a wall mounted bulkhead enclosure houses the Model 316RB. Both versions share the same features and performance.
  • Page 7: Operational Theory

    Trace Oxygen Analyzer Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD Operational Theory Micro-Fuel Cell Sensor The Series 316 uses a Micro-Fuel Cell for the measurement of trace oxygen. This Micro-Fuel Cell is an electrochemical transducer whose features include: • Specificity for oxygen • Long interval between calibration •...
  • Page 8: Installation

    Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD Trace Oxygen Analyzer Installation Precautions 1. Upon receipt of the Series 316 Oxygen Analyzer, inspect the entire unit. Read the entire installation section before installing the analyzer. 2. Do not scratch, puncture, or damage the mesh sensing membrane of the Micro-Fuel Cell. Damage to the membrane will require replacement of the sensor.
  • Page 9: Location

    Trace Oxygen Analyzer Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD Location The Series 316 Trace Oxygen Analyzer should be installed at viewing level in a sheltered area. The analyzer case is not to be considered water tight by the customer. NOTE: Auxiliary heating MUST be provided in areas where the ambient temperature drops below 32°F.
  • Page 10: Pressure Reduction Or Regulation

    Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD Trace Oxygen Analyzer Pressure Reduction or Regulation TAI recommends that sample pressure be reduced at the sample point to between 5 and 50 psig (10 psig nominal). If the magnitude of the sample pressure does not exceed 100 psig and is reasonably stable, a simple throttle valve is sufficient.
  • Page 11: Output Signal Connection

    Trace Oxygen Analyzer Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD A source of single phase, 115 VAC, 50 or 60 Hz is needed to operate the Series 316 analyzer (100/220 VAC optional). Polarize the power connections as shown on the Interconnection Diagram (HOT to the “H”...
  • Page 12: Operations

    Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD Trace Oxygen Analyzer Operations Front Panel Controls A) Meter Readout: Provides accurate linear 100-division scale or digital readout of the analysis (analog meter labeled 0-10 ppm). B) Range Selector Switch: Identifies (by the multiplying factor) the basic 10 major divisions of the integral meter scale (i.e. X1 = 0-10 ppm range, X10 = 0-100 ppm range, etc.).
  • Page 13: Meter Zero

    Trace Oxygen Analyzer Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD Meter Zero Before turning the power on, check the mechanical zero of the meter and adjust, if necessary. Do not adjust the meter with the power on. The meter pointer should be aligned with the zero mark of the scale. Adjust the screw on the face of the meter until the pointer shows exactly zero.
  • Page 14: Calibration

    Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD Trace Oxygen Analyzer The analyzer should start to respond to the oxygen concentration in the sample gas immediately. Set the range selector switch to the range that gives you the highest resolution of the sample. If air was not permitted to diffuse into the analyzer before the start of sample flow, the analyzer will be ready for calibration.
  • Page 15: Alarm Setting (Optional)

    Trace Oxygen Analyzer Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD 7. Re-introduce sample gas into the analyzer. NOTE: Calibration (particularly when the span gas is air) should be per- formed as rapidly as possible, and the analyzer returned to the sample gas as soon as calibration is complete. The longer the...

    Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD Trace Oxygen Analyzer Maintenance Replacing the Fuse If the unit will not turn on when plugged in and switched ON (via the power switch), check the fuse: 1. Remove AC power and move the power switch to OFF.
  • Page 17: Spare Cells

    Trace Oxygen Analyzer Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD NOTE: It is important to minimize the amount of time that the new cell is exposed to air in order to reduce the time required for the reading of the newly installed cell to drop to zero.
  • Page 18: Troubleshooting

    Model 316RA/RB/RAD/RBD Trace Oxygen Analyzer Troubleshooting Most problems that may occur can usually be resolved by verifying instrument setup against the procedures provided in the “Installation & Start-Up Procedures” section. If this does not result in proper operation of the Series 316, the following checks in this section are to be made. If the problem still cannot be resolved, contact TAI.
