    Micro-Fuel Cell Sensor 2.2.1 Principles of Operation The oxygen sensor used in the Model 3000PB series is a Micro-Fuel Cell designed and manufactured by Analytical Instruments. It is a sealed plastic disposable electrochemical transducer. The active components of the Micro-Fuel Cell are a cathode, an anode, and the 15% aqueous KOH electrolyte in which they are immersed.

    2 Operational Theory Model 3000PB analyzed. The Micro-Fuel Cell is therefore a hybrid between a battery and a true fuel cell. (All of the reactants are stored externally in a true fuel cell.) 2.2.2 Anatomy of a Micro-Fuel Cell The Micro-Fuel Cell is a cylinder only 1¼ inches in diameter and 1 inch thick.

    2 Operational Theory Model 3000PB (These reactions will hold as long as no gaseous components capable of oxidizing lead—such as iodine, bromine, chlorine and fluorine—are present in the sample.) The output of the fuel cell is limited by (1) the amount of oxygen in the cell at the time and (2) the amount of stored anode material.

    Expected life in flue gas is 8 months. 2.2.6.2 Class A-5 Cell The class A-5 cell is for use in applications where it is exposed intermit- tently to carbon dioxide concentrations up to 100 % in the sample gas. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
  • Page 22: Sample System

    Depending on the mode of operation either sample or calibration gas is delivered. The Model 3000PB sample system is designed and fabricated to ensure that the oxygen concentration of the gas is not altered as it travels through the sample system.
  • Page 23: Electronics And Signal Processing

    The power supply module is mounted underneath the bottom end of the Electrical Connector Panel. The Model 3000PB Percent Oxygen Analyzer uses an 8031 microcon- troller with 32 kB of RAM and 128 kB of ROM to control all signal pro- cessing, input/output, and display functions for the analyzer.
  • Page 24 2 Operational Theory Model 3000PB Figure 2-5: Block Diagram of the Model 3000PB Electronics In the presence of oxygen the cell generates a current. A current to voltage amplifier converts this current to a voltage, and then the voltage is amplified in the second stage amplifier.

Remote Calibration Protocol: To properly time the Digital Remote Cal Inputs to the Model 3000PB Analyzer, the customer's controller must monitor the CAL CONTACT relay. When the contact is OPEN, the analyzer is analyzing, the Remote Cal Inputs are being polled, and a zero or span command can be sent.

    Operation 4 4.3.5 System Self-Diagnostic Test The Model 3000PB has a built-in self-diagnostic testing routine. Pre- programmed signals are sent through the power supply, output board and sensor circuit. The return signal is analyzed, and at the end of the test the status of each function is displayed on the screen, either as OK or as a number between 1 and 3.

    Zero or Span function. 4.4.1. Cell Failure When the sensor in the 3000PB begins to fail, the analyzer will usually require more and more frequent calibration. If the 3000PB analysis readings drift downward uncharacteristically, try recalibration. If recalibration raises the readings temporarily only, the cell may be failing.
  • Page 51: Span Cal

    As the span reading settles, the screen displays and updates informa- tion on Slope. Spanning automatically ends when the span concentration corresponds, within tolerance, to the value of the span gas concentration. Then the instrument automatically returns to the analyze mode. 4-11 Teledyne Analytical Instruments...

    The Alarms Function The Model 3000PB is equipped with 2 fully adjustable concentration alarms and a system failure alarm. Each alarm has a relay with a set of form “C" contacts rated for 3 amperes resistive load at 250 V ac. See Figure in Chapter 3, Installation and/or the Interconnection Diagram included at the back of this manual for relay terminal connections.

  • Page 55: The Range Function

    Med = 0–5.00 % High = 0–10.00 %. The Model 3000PB is set at the factory to default to autoranging. In this mode, the microprocessor automatically responds to concentration changes by switching ranges for optimum readout sensitivity. If the current range limits are exceeded, the instrument will automatically shift to the next higher range.
  • Page 56: Autoranging Analysis

    4 Operation Model 3000PB 4.6.2 Autoranging Analysis Set your analysis ranges as in 4.6.1, above. Leave Mode in Auto, or use the arrow buttons to change back to Auto. When operating in autoranging, if the oxygen concentration in your sample goes ABOVE your HIGHEST range setting, the analyzer will go into the special 25 % cal range.

  • Page 58 4 Operation Model 3000PB The analog output signal has a voltage which depends on the oxygen concentration AND the currently activated analysis range. To relate the signal output to the actual concentration, it is necessary to know what range the instrument is currently on, especially when the analyzer is in the autoranging mode.

  • Page 60: Cell Replacement

    This section describes fuel cell care as well as when and how to replace it. The Class B-1 Micro-Fuel Cell is used in the standard Model 3000PB. If any other cell is supplied with your instrument, check the front of this manual for any addenda applying to your special model.
  • Page 61: Storing And Handling Replacement Cells

    To have a replacement cell available when it is needed, it is recom- mended that one spare cell be purchased 4-5 months after commissioning the 3000PB, or shortly before the end of the cell's warranty period. CAUTION: Do not stockpile cells. The warranty period starts on the day of shipment.
  • Page 62: Removing The Micro-Fuel Cell

    The “good” reading depends on the class of cell your analyzer is using. Although the B-1 cell is standard in the 3000PB, check Specific Model Information in the Front Matter in this manual for the class of cell you purchased. Then check Table 5-1, the Cell Indices table below, and do the prescribed calculations.
