Precautions in operation, stop, maintenance and check • In case where combustible gas is contained in the measured gas, check the gas DANGER composition and specifications carefully before using. Otherwise, the original performance is not displayed, and there is a fear of explosion. • Do the work in a condition where the main power has been turned off. If the CAUTION work is done while current is flowing, there is a fear of getting an electric shock. • The operating temperature of the detector (tip of ceramic heater) is about 800°C and the surface temperature is also very high. So, never touch the detector by bare hand. Otherwise, there is a fear of getting a burn. • Before cleaninhg the flow guide tube, turn off the main power and cool the tube down fully. There is a fear of getting a burn. • Don’t use any other renewal part than those designated by the maker. Other- wise, the original performance is not fully displayed and a accident or failure may result. • Dispose of the renewal parts such as the maintenance parts as an incombustible. • Never do the work at a place where rain water splases the product directly.
: Faraday constant 9.649×10 [c・mol Platinum Oxygen molecule 1.2 Device configuration of direct insertion type oxygen analyzer The direct insertion type zirconia oxygen analyzer consists of the detector with a sensor unit, the flow guide tube that is directly inserted to the stack or the like in order to supply a gas to the detector, and the converter that performs sensor control, signal processing, output/display, and external transmission. The detector and converter are connected with a cable. Stack Detector Converter Flow guide tube Cable Flow of gas (sensor output line, thermocouple output line, heater power wire) Replacement of the existing detector ZFK2 with the detector ZFK8: In principle, the detector ZFK8 is compatible with the existing detectors ZFK2 and ZFK5 structurally and electrically. However, the M4 screws for the terminal block of the detector were changed to the M3 screws. If using the existing cable, change the M4 terminal for cable end treatment on the detector side to the M3 terminal. The detectors ZFK8, ZFK2 and ZFK5 can be connected to the converters ZRY, ZRM or ZKM. The flow guide tube can be connected to the existing products.
