Teledyne API – T200 NO/NO2/NOx Analyzer Operation Manual
The vacuum created by the analyzer‟s pump is supplied to all of the gas streams for the
T200 analyzer through the vacuum manifold (also called the exhaust manifold).
Figure 13-5.
Configurations will vary depending on the optional equipment that is installed. For
example:

An T200 with the optional internal span gas generator installed will add another FT8
connector and orifice assembly to the manifold where the FT28 fitting is shown in
the above drawing.

An optional sample gas dryer will add a Tee-fitting so that two ¼" tubes can be
connected to the same port.
As discussed in Section 13.1, the measurement of NO
sample gas flow cycles through different routes that include and exclude various
scrubbers and converters. There are several valves that perform this function:

The NO/NO valve directs the sample gas either directly to the reaction cell or
X
through the unit's NO

The Auto Zero valve directs the sample gas stream to completely bypass the
reaction cell for dark noise measurement once every minute, which is then
subtracted as a measurement offset from the raw concentration signal.
