Chapter 1 Introduction The Thermo Scientific™ 49iQ Ozone Primary Standard utilizes UV Photometric technology to reliably produce ozone up to 1000 ppb in concentration. The 49iQ Ozone Primary Standard is a dual cell photometer, the concept adopted by NIST for the national ozone standard. The instrument can accurately generate up to 1000 ppb of ozone operating with ozonator flow rates between 3-4 liters per minute.
Introduction iQ Series Instrument Platform experience to simplify daily operations. Custom designed ePort software allows remote access to the instrument with a PC. The ePort control mirrors the same GUI look and feel as the instrument touchscreen providing a speedy and familiar operational experience. Figure 1–1.
Introduction Principle of Operation Principle of The 49iQPS operates on the principle that ozone (O ) molecules absorb UV light at a wavelength of 254 nm. The degree to which the UV light is Operation absorbed is directly related to the ozone concentration as described by the Beer-Lambert Law: ...
Introduction Specifications Specifications Table 1–1 lists the specifications for the 49iQPS. Table 1–1. 49iQPS Specifications Photometer Range 50–5000 ppb 100–10000 μg/m Zero Noise 0.25 ppb RMS (60 second averaging time) Detection Limit 0.5 ppb (60 second averaging time) Response Time 20 seconds (0–95%) Lag Time 10 seconds...

Chapter 7 System Description The 49iQPS deploys a set of modular subsystems that comprise the total instrument function. The core measurements for concentration are contained in Distributed Measurement and Control (DMC) modules. This chapter describes the function and location of the system components in the module framework, including firmware, electronics, and I/O function.
System Description Common Electronics Photometer DMC The optical bench has two airtight chambers that contain the sample and reference gases with a common photometer lamp at one end and two with Lamp individual detectors at the other end. Detector System The photo-diode in each detector transmits light intensity information to the DMC board for sample measurement computations.
System Description Common Electronics Power Supply All electronics operate from a universal VDC supply, which is capable of auto-sensing the input voltage and working over all specified operating ranges. The 49iQPS contains a 24 VDC channel for most electronics operation, including the pump and fan, and a 48 VDC channel dedicated specifically for optical bench heating.
System Description Peripherals Support System Peripherals The peripherals support system operates these additional devices that are needed, but do not require special feedback control or processing. These Support System components are connected to a Peripherals Support Board (PSB). The chassis fan provides air cooling of the active electronic components. Step POL Board The Step POL board provides high/low outputs for continuous operation or on/off states.
