Trace Oxygen Analyzer
Digital Remote Cal Inputs: Accept 0 V (off) or 24 V dc (on) inputs
for remote calibration control. (See Remote Calibration Protocol below.)
Zero:
Span:
Cal Contact: This relay contact is closed while analyzer is spanning
and/or zeroing. (See Remote Calibration Protocol below.)
Remote Calibration Protocol: To properly time the Digital Remote
Cal Inputs to the Model 3000TA Analyzer, the customer's controller must
monitor the Cal Relay Contact.
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.
When the contact is CLOSED, the analyzer is already calibrating. It
will ignore your request to calibrate, and it will not remember that request.
Once a zero or span command is sent, and acknowledged (contact
closes), release it. If the command is continued until after the zero or span is
complete, the calibration will repeat and the Cal Relay Contact (CRC) will
close again.
For example:
1) Test the CRC. When the CRC is open, Send a zero command
2) When the CRC closes, remove the zero command.
3) When CRC opens again, send a span command until the CRC
4) When the CRC closes, remove the span command.
When CRC opens again, zero and span are done, and the sample is
being analyzed.
Floating input. 5 to 24 V input across the + and – terminals
puts the analyzer into the Zero mode. Either side may be
grounded at the source of the signal. 0 to 1 volt across the
terminals allows Zero mode to terminate when done. A
synchronous signal must open and close the external zero
valve appropriately. See 3.3.3 Remote Probe Connector.
(The –C option internal valves operate automatically.)
