Model T200U NOy Option Manual Addendum 1.0 INTRODUCTION The T200U NOy analyzer consists of an external thermal converter designed to support a NOx analyzer by converting multiple, unstable compounds grouped under the name NOy. The converter is mounted externally at the sample inlet to minimize flow time between sample in and converter, thereby optimizing measurement accuracy.

Model T200U NOy Option Manual Addendum 3.3 Initial Operation If you are unfamiliar with the T200U NOy analyzer, we recommend that you read the principles of operation in Section 4.1 of this operation manual before proceeding. 1. After confirming proper supply voltage, turn on the power to the analyzer and to the 501 NOy pump pack, and plug in the external Pump.
• External Pump • The T200U NOy system allows the point of sampling to be located in close proximity to the Converter. This configuration provides minimal time delay between the sample inlet and the remotely mounted (~10 meters above ground) external Converter.

Model T200U NOy Option Manual Addendum 5.0 CALIBRATION AND CAL CHECKS Unlike most NOx analyzers, the T200U NOy does not have a sample inlet port on its rear panel. The sample inlet is located on the outside of the external Converter.
Model T200U NOy Option Manual Addendum 5.1 Calibration or Cal Check Procedure Calibration of the analyzer can be checked or adjusted using gas introduced through the CAL IN (3) port on the 501 NOy rear panel. The calibration gas is routed to a tee fitting (see CAL IN in Figure 4), near the sample inlet on the external Converter assembly.

Model T200U NOy Option Manual Addendum 6.2 Replacing the Sample Particulate Filters The particulate filter should be inspected often for signs of plugging or contamination. It is also common for dirt particles to cause instrument drift, and affect accuracy. To check and change the filter: Fold down the 501 NOy front panel.
Model T200U NOy Option Manual Addendum Figure 3. Replacing the Particulate Filter 6.3 Checking Analyzer Flow Rate The External Pump is capable of maintaining the analyzer reaction cell pressure at less than 5.0 In-Hg-A. If a higher pressure is noted, the Pump may need servicing.
Model T200U NOy Option Manual Addendum 6.4 Replacing the Converter The heater, thermocouple, and converter interior assembly is designed to be replaced as a single unit. Check Figure 4 for the assembly location. CAUTION! The converter operates at 315°C. Severe burns can result if not enough time is allowed for the assembly to cool.
Model T200U NOy Option Manual Addendum 6.5 Inspecting Pneumatic Lines Particulate matter in the pneumatic lines will affect both flow rate and response time. It is important that the pneumatic system be periodically inspected and thoroughly cleaned if necessary. Clean by disassembling and passing methanol through three times.
Model T200U NOy Option Manual Addendum 6.6 Checking for Leaks If a leak checker is not available, it is possible to leak check the instrument using the sample pump plus a shut-off valve. Turn off power to the analyzer and the 501 NOy, and unplug the external Pump.

Model T200U NOy Option Manual Addendum Using a leak checker: Turn off power to the analyzer and 501 NOy, and unplug the external Pump. 2. Disconnect the external Pump from the analyzer’s rear panel. Cap the sample inlet of the external Converter, the BYPASS OUT port of the 501 NOy, the ozone generator air inlet (located inside the analyzer, Figure 6), and connect the leak checker to the instrument exhaust port.
