    This manual provides installation, operation and routine maintenance instruction for the Servomex SERVOPRO FID Online Total Hydrocarbons analyser, abbreviated SERVOPRO FID where applicable in the remainder of this manual. 1.2 Safety information Read this manual and ensure that you fully understand its content before you attempt to install, use or maintain the SERVOPRO FID.
  • Page 10 The SERVOPRO FID is a rackmount analyser to be used in fixed installations. It is used to measure the hydrocarbons contained in the sample. The SERVOPRO FID uses a FID detector to measure the content of hydrocarbons.

  • Page 11: Sample Measurement Configurations

    • One RS-232 output • Alarm relays (up to 2) The SERVOPRO FID will give a response to other hydrocarbons that is proportional to the number of hydrocarbons contain in the molecule. However, it will not necessarily be linearly proportional because of incomplete hydrocarbon oxidation of larger molecules.

    SERVOPRO FID. 6.1 Calibrating the SERVOPRO FID CAUTION You must calibrate the SERVOPRO FID before initial set-up. We also recommend calibrating the SERVOPRO FID at least every month or more often depending on the required accuracy. Periodic calibrations are important in order to verify the functionality of the analyser.

    8 STORAGE AND DISPOSAL 8.1 Storage Refit any protective cover (see Section 3) and place the SERVOPRO FID and any associated equipment in its original packing before storage. Store the SERVOPRO FID and any associated equipment in a clean, dry area. Do not subject it to excessively hot, cold, or humid conditions: See section 2.5.

  • Page 55: Error Management

    SERVOPRO FID Online Total Hydrocarbons Analyser 9 ERROR MANAGEMENT 9.1 System error This section describes in detail all possible system errors. Air flow deviation: This error occurs when the difference between air flow and air flow set point is higher than 5 cc/min. When this error is active, it is impossible to ignite the flame.

  • Page 56: Over And Under Scale

    “mA failure mode” to low or high, the 4-20 mA analogue output will be set according to this setting. Because the SERVOPRO FID uses explosive gas, the software has built-in functions to reduce the risk of explosion. If the flame is off for more than 5 minutes and the set point of hydrogen is not 0 cc/min, it will automatically be set to 0 cc/min and the hydrogen shut off valve will be de-activated.
