Depending on the mode of operation either sample or calibration gas is delivered. The Model 3000ZA2G sample system is designed and fabricated to ensure that the oxygen concentration of the gas is not altered as it travels through the sample system.
Use a moisture trap or filter to remove any water vapor in the sample. 2.5 Electronics and Signal Processing The Model 3000ZA2G Trace Oxygen Analyzer uses an 8031 microcontroller with 32 kB of RAM and 128 kB of ROM to control all Teledyne Analytical Instruments...

The digital information representing the output from the sensor is linearized by the Model 3000ZA2G software and passed to a 12 bit digital to analog converter that produces the 4-20 mA DC and the 0-1 VDC analog concentration signal outputs, and the analog range ID outputs.
Immediately report any damage to the shipping agent. 3.2 Mounting the Analyzer The Model 3000ZA2G is for indoor use in a general purpose area. It is NOT for hazardous environments of any type. The standard model is designed for 19” rack mounting. Figure 3-1 is an illustration of the 3000ZA2G.
Figure 3-2: Required Front Door Clearance 3.3 Rear Panel Connections Figure 3-3 shows the Model 3000ZA2G rear panel. There are ports for gas, power, and equipment interface. The Zero In and Span In ports are not included on the standard model but are available as options.

The auto calibration module uses electrically operated valves for automatic switching between calibration and sample gases. These valves are completely under control of the 3000ZA2G electronics. They can also be externally controlled indirectly through the remote cal inputs as described below.
Medium Range, 0.80 V = High Range. 4–20 mA DC % Range: Current increases linearly with increasing oxygen, from 4 mA at 0 ppm to 20 mA at full scale ppm. (Full scale = 100% of programmable range) Teledyne Analytical Instruments...

Cal Contact Cal Contact Remote Calibration Protocol: To properly time the Digital Remote Cal Inputs to the Model 3000ZA2G Analyzer, the customer's controller must monitor the Cal Relay Contact. When the contact is OPEN, the analyzer is analyzing, the Remote Cal Inputs are being polled, and a zero or span command can be sent.
At this printing, this port is not yet functional. It is to be used for future options to the instrument. Remote Valve Connections: The 3000ZA2G is a single-chassis instrument, which has no Remote Valve Unit. Instead, the Remote Valve...

Note: If you require highly accurate Auto-Cal timing, use external Auto-Cal control where possible. The internal clock in the Model 3000ZA2G is accurate to 2-3 %. Accordingly, internally scheduled calibrations can vary 2-3 % per day. To setup an Auto–Cal cycle: Choose System from the Function buttons.

Operation 3000ZA2G 4.3.5 System Self-Diagnostic Test The Model 3000ZA2G has a built-in self-diagnostic testing routine. Pre-programmed signals are sent through the power supply, output board and sensor circuit. The return signal is analyzed, and at the end of the test the status of each function is displayed on the screen, either as OK or as a number between 1 and 3.
Press the Escape key twice to return to the analyze mode. This preference is stored in non-volatile memory, so this configuration is remembered after a power shutdown. If the instrument is cold started, it will go back to default (not showing negative oxygen readings). Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
