Introduction Introduction 1.1 Overview The Teledyne Analytical Instruments Model 3300TB Trace Oxygen Analyzer is a versatile microprocessor-based instrument for real-time measurement of the parts per million of oxygen in inert gases, or in a wide variety of gas mixtures. It features simple operation, fast response, and a compact, rugged construction.
Introduction Model 3300TB Panel mount flowmeter. Control valve for the selection of Span gas or Sample gas. Sensor failure alarm. Three analog outputs: two for measurement (0–10V dc, and negative ground 4–20 mA dc) and one for range identification (0-10 V dc).
The connectors are described briefly here and in detail in the Installation chapter of this manual. Power Connection: AC version: 100–240 VAC, at 50/60Hz. The connector housing includes the fuse holder and the power switch. Fuse Holder: Replacing the fuse is described in Chapter 5, Maintenance. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Introduction Model 3300TB I/O Power Switch: Turns the instrument power ON (1) or OFF (0). Analog Outputs: 0–10 V dc concentration output. 0–10 V dc range ID (or optional over range) output. 4–20 mA dc concentration output, negative ground.
2.2 Micro-Fuel Cell Sensor 2.2.1 Principles of Operation The oxygen sensor used in the Model 3300TB series is a Micro- Fuel Cell designed and manufactured by Analytical Instruments. It is a sealed plastic disposable electrochemical transducer.
Operational Theory Model 3300TB between a battery and a true fuel cell. (All of the reactants are stored externally in a true fuel cell.) 2.2.2 Anatomy of a Micro-Fuel Cell The Micro-Fuel Cell is a cylinder only 11/4 inches in diameter and 11/4 inches thick.
Pb + 2OH O + 2e (anode) (Two electrons are transferred for each atom of lead that is oxidized. Therefore it takes two of the above anode reactions to balance one cathode reaction and transfer four electrons.) Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Operational Theory Model 3300TB The electrons released at the surface of the anode flow to the cathode surface when an external electrical path is provided. The current is proportional to the amount of oxygen reaching the cathode. It is measured and used to determine the oxygen concentration in the gas mixture.
The power supply circuitry is on the Power Supply PCB, which is mounted vertically, just behind the rear panel of the Control Unit. The signal processing electronics including the sensor amplifier, microcontroller, analog to digital, and digital to analog converters are Teledyne Analytical Instruments...

The same digital information is also sent to a 12-bit digital to analog converter (DAC) that produces the 0-10 V dc analog concentration signal and the 0-10 V dc analog range ID output. A voltage current converter (E–I CONV) produces the 4-20 mA dc analog concentration signal. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...

Trace Oxygen Analyzer Installation Installation Installation of the Model 3300TB Analyzer includes: 1. Unpacking the system. 2. Mounting the Control Unit to a wall 3. Installing the Micro-Fuel Cell 4. Making the electrical connections. 5. Making the gas connections. 6. Testing the installation.
Model 3300TB 3.2 Location and Mounting 3.2.1 Control Unit Installation The 3300TB Control Unit is designed to be wall-mounted, in a general purpose, area. The unit should be installed at viewing level in a sheltered area. Refer to the Outline diagram D-70361 for the physical dimensions of the analyzer.
Chapter 5, Maintenance. 3.3 Electrical Connections Figure 3-1 shows the Model 3300TB rear panel of the control unit. For detailed pinouts, see the wiring/interconnection drawings in the Drawings section at the rear of this manual. To gain access to the terminal blocks, the analyzer door screws must be loosened, and the door opened.
Page 29
Installation Model 3300TB The universal power supply allows direct connection to any 100- 240 VAC, 50/60Hz power source. The fuse block, to the right of the power cord receptacle, accepts two 5x20mm 0.5 A, 250V, IEC time-lag (T) fuse. (See Fuse Replacement in chapter 5, Maintenance.) The power switch is located on the right-hand end of the power source input receptacle assembly.
Alarm #2 Programmable as high or low alarm (actuates when concentration is below threshold). Can be set anywhere from 0 to 9999ppm. Sensor Fail Actuates when the output of the Micro-Fuel Cell sensor falls below the acceptable level. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
3.4 Gas Connections The standard Model 3300TB has two inlets and one outlet fixture only. Calibration gasses can be connected into the "Span" inlet. All of the gas connections are 1/4 inch brass fittings.
Figure 3-4: Piping Diagram for Vacuum Service Option 3.5 Installation Checklist Before connecting the instrument to the power source and turning it on, make sure you have: Correctly installed the Sample and Exhaust gas lines Checked for leaks Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Page 33
Installation Model 3300TB Set the sample pressure to 5–10 psig (34.5 - 68.9 kPa), nominal (for non-vacuum service units) Set the flow Once the above checks have been made, you can connect to the power source. The instrument is now ready for operation.
Analyzing for the trace oxygen level in the gas passing through the cell block is the default mode of operation. As long as no front panel buttons are being pressed the Unit is analyzing. Figure 4-1: Front Panel Controls and Indicators Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Operation Model 3300TB 4.2 Using the Function and Data Entry Buttons When no buttons on the Analyzer are being pressed, the instrument is in the Analyze mode. It is monitoring the amount of oxygen in the sample gas that is flowing through the sampling system.
SET ALARM 1 function button once more. The alarm setpoint will flash on the LED display. Press either the Up or Down keys to raise or lower the displayed value, as required, until the display reads the desired percent Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
The SENSOR FAIL alarm has fail safe contacts that are triggered only when power to instruments is turned off. 4.5 Selecting a Fixed Range or Autoranging The Model 3300TB can operate in fixed high, fixed low, or autoranging mode. To change modes: Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Note: If you use a span gas other than air, and the span gas oxygen concentration is less than 10,000 ppm, the analyzer could take up to 65 seconds to to settle. The lag is caused by a digital filter that is active only below 10,000 ppm (1%) oxygen. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Operation Model 3300TB 4.7 Displaying Percent & PPM on the LED Display The analyzer displays the concentration in percent whenever the reading is over 9999 ppm. When the reading changes to percent, the LED display will alternate between flashing ―PC‖ and the oxygen concentration.
Maintenance Maintenance Aside from normal cleaning and checking for leaks at the gas connections, the Model 3300TB should not require any maintenance beyond replacement of expended Micro-Fuel Cells, and perhaps a blown fuse. Routine maintenance includes occasional recalibration, as described in chapter 4, Operation.
Maintenance Model 3300TB 3. Insert a small flat-blade screwdriver into the slot in the receptacle wall nearest the fuse and gently pry open the fuse receptacle. The fuse holder will slide out. There are two fuses in use and are visible in the clip.
If the cell package is punctured and air is permitted to enter, cell-life will be compromised. WARNING: THE SENSOR USED IN THE MODEL 3300TB CONTAINS AN ELECTROLYTE WHICH INCLUDES SUBSTANCES THAT ARE EXTREMELY HARMFUL IF TOUCHED, SWALLOWED, OR INHALED. AVOID CONTACT WITH ANY FLUID OR POWDER IN OR AROUND THE UNIT.
Maintenance Model 3300TB Figure 5-2: Exploded View of MFC and Cell Block 4. Slowly withdraw the cap from the block. The cell should come out with the cap. 5. Carefully pull the cell off of the cap. DO NOT TOUCH THE SCREENED END OF THE CELL OR ANY FLUID THAT MAY BE LEAKING FROM IT.
6. Reconnect the cell block electrical connector plug. 5.2.5 Cell Warranty Conditions The B-2C Class Micro-Fuel cell is used in the Model 3300TB. These cells are warranted for 6 months, with an expected life of 8 months from the date of shipment (under specified operating conditions—see Appendix).
