SERVOTOUGH SpectraScan User Manual Electrical Power Requirements The Servomex SpectraScan Gas Analyzer operates at 24 VDC or 100-240 VAC depending on the model configuration. Be sure to adhere to the Power Rating Label on the analyzer to determine which power source to use, and connect the correct power source.
SERVOTOUGH SpectraScan User Manual Wiring All cables entering the analyzer (24 VDC or 120/240 VAC power and communication) must be separately jacketed as they enter the analyzer to prevent miss-wiring. The power cabling used, whether for 24 VDC operation, or for 120-240 VAC operation, must use a 3 conductor cable. The ground wire in this 3 conductor cable must be electrically connected to the earth ground lug in the analyzer.

SERVOTOUGH SpectraScan User Manual Spectrascan Networking and Software Configuration 6.4.1 Ethernet and TCP/IP Getting an IP address using DHCP As delivered, the instruments are configured as DHCP clients. This means each instrument's IP addresses given to it by an external DHCP server, typically a router running on your network. The IP address is assigned dynamically when the instrument is powered up.
Connecting to the system board via RS-232 requires the following items: Windows PC A special serial cable from Servomex. On one end this cable is terminated by a connector mating to the RS-232 connector on the system board. On the other end, the cable is terminated by a DB-9 connector.
SERVOTOUGH SpectraScan User Manual Figure 12 - Location of debug RS-232 connector on MPU Connect a Windows PC to the MPU debug connector using the SpectraScan RS-232 cable (and an RS-232 to USB converter, if required). On your PC, determine which COM port is associated with the serial connection. Do this by opening the Windows device manager and looking at the COM port configuration.

SERVOTOUGH SpectraScan User Manual Sample Line Connections 7.0.1 Sampling Ports Both sample intake and exhaust ports are fitted with male ¼” Swagelok® compression tube fittings. Only properly mated, female ¼” Swagelok® compression fittings should be used on the sample intake and exhaust lines. CAUTION Equipment Damage: Restricting the gas flow on either the intake or the exhaust side may cause the gas cell to over pressurize, causing damage to the analyzer.
It is ultimately the user’s responsibility to ensure a clean sample stream. We recommend an inline 10 micron particulate filter for most applications. Contact Servomex for more information. 02400001A/1...
7.0.5 Stream Switching Using External Solenoid Valves The Servomex SpectraScan Gas Analyzer is equipped with three relays connected to the 24 VDC supply, which may be used to control external solenoid valves for the purpose of stream switching. By default, the first two relays are used for automatic zeroing: upon initiating, a software “zero”...
SERVOTOUGH SpectraScan User Manual The diagram below depicts the recommended pipe work and electrical connections to utilize the stream switching relays. Note that solenoid labels “NC” and “NO” denote normally closed and normally open respectively. Solenoid lines 1, 2, 3 and 4 should be connected to the rightmost connector bank on the front-edge of the PCB, to connector ports SOL1, GND, SOL2, and GND respectively, as shown in the diagram below.
6. Install/connect stream switching lines and solenoids if applicable. 7. Connect sample supply and exhaust lines to the Servomex SpectraScan sample inlet and exhaust ports. 8. Ensure proper sample gas and zero gas temperature and conditioning. In general, sample conditioning is application dependent, see the Application data for more specific information.
SERVOTOUGH SpectraScan User Manual Enclosure Purge Connections 7.1.1 Purging of Enclosure Compartment Certain installations may require the use of purge gas to flow through the enclosure. There are two female ¼” NPTF ports located on the analyzer for this purpose. (See Figure 3). To add a purge to the enclosure, remove the plugs installed at the factory on the purge inlet and purge outlet ports (either port can be used for inlet or outlet).
