  • Page 6: General Information

    A further 10 fuels can be programmed by the operator to cover all eventualities. The RS232C interface fitted to the Sensonic 4000 allows all stored data to be read for later treatment or the instrument can be used on-line with the computer.
  • Page 7: Construction

    The probe pipe is attached to the probe holder with a threaded connector. The gas tubing in the Sensonic 4000 is protected from the dust and moisture present in the flue gases by a filter (4). The filter elements (3) should be changed when dirty to ensure a free flow of gas. The condensate should be removed from the condensate traps when necessary.

    (20.95%) is determined. The toxic gases are also measured using electrochemical cells Table 1 presents all the gas sensors available. Any of them can be used in Sensonic 4000 system. To guarantee long-lasting, trouble-free function of electrochemical sensors the following points are important: ### the stated maximum measuring range of the sensor should not be exceeded.
  • Page 9: Differential Pressure Sensor

    5.2.5 Differential pressure sensor The Sensonic 4000 is fitted with a precise semiconductor differential pressure sensor. Stubs marked +/- PRESSURE situated on the left side of the front panel are used to measure pressure. Negative pressure in flue gas channel (chimney draught) can be measured with the one stub only; differential pressure measurement is possible using both stubs.

  • Page 44 0 95 If the optional sensor of the Sensonic 4000 analyser is the NO 2 sensor there is no need to calculate the amount of NO 2 . Then the NO x concentration is calculated by the analyser as a simple sum of measured NO and NO 2 concentrations.
  • Page 45 (where = 1, so O 2 = 0%). Mass concentrations of gas components Sensonic 4000 also makes calculations of mass concentration expressed in [mg/m3] from the concentration expressed in [ppm]. Mass concentration of gas elements depends on the gas pressure and temperature. To make comparison of results possible, the idea of standard conditions was introduced, that is standard temperature and pressure values at which the mass concentration of the elements is calculated.
  • Page 46 The parameter O 2ref - reference oxygen is a standard value. Standards recommend different values of this parameter for various types of fuel. In the system SENSONIC 4000 the value of reference oxygen can be accepted automatically in the process of fuel selection (the so-called a u t o m a t i c reference oxygen choice) or entered by the operator from the keyboard (the so-called m a n u a l selection of reference oxygen).

  • Page 48 BASIC PRINCIPLES OF CALCULATING RESULTS Sensonic 4000 The last combustion parameter calculated by Sensonic 4000 is the excess air factor . This factor expresses how many times the amount of air supplied to the boiler is larger than the minimum amount which is necessary to burn the fuel completely.
