3.4 Service Procedures It is essential that the generator is isolated from the mains power supply and fully depressurised before carrying out any servicing procedures. Stopping the equipment Close the ball valve on the N2 Outlet port. Press [ ] to initiate the shutting down sequence. The generator will complete the current cycle and then exhaust both beds.
Ensure that the generator is isolated from the mains power supply and fully depressurised before carrying out any of the following service procedures. 3.4.1 Exhaust Silencer Replacement The exhaust silencer is located under the inlet manifold assembly. Unscrew the silencer assembly from the exhaust flange plate and remove.
3.4.4 Outlet Flow valve replacement The outlet flow valves are mounted on the outlet flow assembly. Disconnect the solenoid plugs on both valves making a note of which plug belongs to which valve. Unscrew the 8 off M5 socket head cap screws that hold the valves in place and remove.
3.4.6 Inlet Valve Replacement The inlet plate assembly is located above the lower manifold as shown. Disconnect the inlet pipe-work, including the ball valve, from the port marked “Compressed Air Inlet”. Ensure that the pipe-work remains adequately supported whilst disconnected from the generator.
3.4.7 Outlet Valve Replacement The outlet plate assembly is located below the upper manifold as shown. Disconnect the inlet pipe-work, including the ball valve, from the port marked “Compressed Air Inlet”. Ensure that the pipe-work remains adequately supported whilst disconnected from the generator.
3.4.8 Equalisation Valve Replacement There are two equalisation assemblies. The upper equalisation assembly is connected to the outlet manifold assembly whilst the lower equalisation assembly is connected to the inlet manifold assembly as shown. The procedure for replacing the cylinders is the same for both the upper and lower assemblies.
3.4.9 Exhaust Valve Replacement The Exhaust valve assembly is located below the inlet manifold as shown. Unscrew the exhaust silencer assembly from the exhaust flange plate and remove. Remove the pneumatic tubing from the cylinders. Whilst supporting the exhaust valve assembly, remove the 8 off M10 Hex HD bolts that hold the assembly onto the manifold.
3.5 Oxygen Analyser Calibration The frequency of calibration is dependent on how critical the quality of gas is to the end process and on the customer’s own internal procedures. However, it is recommended that the analyser be calibrated at least every 3 months. The calibration method will depend on whether the generator is a % or ppm generator and if calibration is to be carried out against a calibration gas supply or against an independent analyser.
4 Oxygen Analyser The Oxygen analyser is located in the electrical compartment behind the facia. All connections to the module are provided in the form of screw terminals that are located at the top and bottom of the module as shown. Function sensor (-ve) sensor (+ve)
E1 – Calibrate sensor Connect a known concentration of gas, at a flow rate of between 500 and 1000cc/min, to the port marked Allow time for the sensor to respond. Using the [ ] and [ ] keys set the reading to that of the calibration gas level. Press [ ] to span the sensor.
E5 – Sensor simulation This option allows the user to simulate the sensor output in order to test the functionality of the analyser. The analogue output will reflect the gas level and the relays will be activated when the alarm levels are reached. Use the [ ] and [ ] keys to display the desired gas level.
E8 - Diagnostics This feature is a view-only feature. No configuration changes are possible from within this menu. The display will alternate between the current value and diagnostic code E:8x: where x is one of the following variables: 0 Sensor signal, A to D counts low ppm range. 1 Sensor signal, A to D counts high ppm range.
In the unlikely event that a problem occurs on the equipment, this troubleshooting guide can be used to identify the probable cause and remedy. Troubleshooting should only be attempted by competent personnel. All major repair, and calibration work should be undertaken by a domnick hunter trained, qualified and approved engineer. Fault...
