<6. Operation> Operation In this Chapter, the basic operation methods for the EXA OXY Explosion proof Zirconia Oxygen Analyzer are described. Startup The general procedures for starting up are as follows: Inspect the piping & wiring conditions See Section 6.1.1. Check the heat insulation conditions See Section 6.1.2.
<6. Operation> 6.1.3 Checking of Set Valves Inspect the valves as follows depending on your system: (1) If a needle valve is mounted at the calibration gas inlet of the detector, completely open this valve beforehand. (2) When instrument air is used as the reference gas, set the secondary pressure of the air so that the air pressure becomes 70 to 100 kPa.
Page 96
<6. Operation> Also upon shipment, the data read and loaded into the converter are in the default state. Thus, upon commencement of operation, set the data to match each operation. Table 6.1 shows the setting items and their default values. Refer to it when setting data. In addition, to enter the password 16 or key operations when data is set, see Chapter 8.
Page 97
<6. Operation> <Details about Selecting Set Data> C-0 Span gas concentration You can set the oxygen concentration for your span gas used for calibration. If the air at the detector installation site is taken in or the instrument air is used as a span gas, set the value at 21 vol% O (i.e., nearly the same oxygen concentration of clean air) by entering “021.00”.
