Page 11: Overview
OVERVIEW Model ta Gas Purity Monitor Introduction The ta7000F Process Gas Analyzer is a trace level gas chromatograph ca- pable of detecting sub-ppb concentrations of contaminants in sample gas matrices. The system consists of a microprocessor controlled gas chro- matograph utilizing the Trace Analytical Flame Ionization Detector (FID). Because of the specific nature of the detection method, analysis times are rapid and chromatographic complexity is minimized. -
Page 12: Reduction Gas Detection
Flame Ionization Detection Species eluting from the FID column set pass immediately into the heated bed of ruthenium oxide (Ru )) and the flame detector. Within the ru- thenium oxide bed, the general reaction occurs: + (2+X)H => CH O (vapor) Where CO is an appropriate carbon-oxygen compound gas. - Page 13 Data is presented via the front display panel. Alternatively data may be obtained through an RS232 serial computer interface and HP/GL parallel printer interface located on the rear panel. With optional interface kits, two components may be assigned to separate trend channels to provide a continuous signal proportional to the con- centration of the assigned component.

• Power Cord • Operating Manual If any evidence of damage exists, immediately contact the shipping com- pany, save the original shipping container, and notify Ametek customer service as soon as possible for consultation. Location and Environment The area where the Reduction Gas Analyzer is to be operated should be clean with minimum particulate matter and dust in the air. -
Page 25: Electrical Preparations And Connections
gas containers inside the building where temperature fluctuations are at a minimum. Have adequate ventilation around the instrument area without any high flow velocity draft directly onto the analyzer. Be sure not to block any vent slots in the rear or top of the analyzer since limited air circulation will cause overheating and poor performance. -
Page 26: Regulators And Plumbing
4. Frequent power failures in the area where the analyzer is used are best taken care of by installing an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The UPS will supply power instantly from batteries when the main power is interrupted. Proper power will be supplied for minutes or hours depend- ing upon the size of the battery. -
Page 27: Damage Prevention
Guidelines for prevention of damage PLEASE STUDY THIS MANUAL THOROUGHLY BEFORE IN- STALLING OR OPERATING THE INSTRUMENT. CAUTION Carrier Gas The RGD detectors can be destroyed if operated at temperature without flow. The carrier gas should remain flowing until all heated zones are below 50o C (2 to 3 hours). -
Page 28: Installation Instructions
CAUTION If any inconsistencies are encountered during installation, stop im- mediately. Do not continue the installation without direction from Ametek customer service. CAUTION Tools Suggested for Installation All connections are made using U.S. standard size conectors. -
Page 29: View Of Gas And Power Connections
The instrument connection is made at the “Actuator Gas” 1/8” VICI port on rear panel. Pressurize external line to 80 psig (Minimum 70 psig, Maxi- mum 150 psig). Connecting AC Power and Communications Cables IMPORTANT: Verify that the operating voltage of the instrument matches the available AC power. -
