Page 10
Discharging the oscillator The clamp is attached to the mounting bracket of the oscillator In order to guarantee a safe GND connection between the crocodile clip and the device ground, a multimeter is used to ensures that the transition resistance of the set to the device ground is low (R<1 Ohm).
Page 11
Discharging the oscillator Attention! The measuring tip is now held first on the left-hand and then on the right-hand 4.4 KV connector of the transformer for approx. 5s It is necessary to ensure that the tip stays on each contact for the full 5s. Attention! All marked components inside the oscillator are short circuited to ground using the measuring tip.

Faults In case of a fault however, a control of the flow rate is no longer possible and the gas flow fluctuates. This can be caused, for example, by an excessive obstruction of the gas flow system or by a faulty component that needs to be replaced. See the next pages of this chapter and chapter 3.1 “Gas flow controller adjustment and jumper settings”...
Page 15
Faults Check by removing the filter with the dust filter housing. See chapter: “High carbon results are erratic”. Don’t remove the filter from its housing. Turn the filter housing upside down and try to blow air through the smaller whole (about 16mm diameter) of the filter housing.
Page 16
Faults Push the tube (1) through the upper glass tube assembly (2), pass it through the tube (3) up to the inside of the dust trap box (4). This should be done when the glass tube has to be removed anyway, for replacing the magnesium perchlorate (anhydrone).
Page 17
Faults Blocked fittings: This case is very unlikely to happen in case of induction furnace operation, because the analyzed materials in question are inorganic materials like metals and ceramics, so that they don’t create fumes, volatiles and moisture. Even cement analysis is not as critical as organics analysis.
Faults Fig. 5: HF-42 Fig. 6: Jumper position for gas saving mode Fig. 7: Jumper position for continuous flow In this case there is continuous flow when the main power switch is on Position 2.

Faults When "Analyzing" appears on the status window, the light bulb should glow; this does not happen suddenly, but gradually (soft start).

Faults Flow stops during analysis Fig. 53: Programm screenshot (graph example 3) In such case all base lines remain high, keeping their level which they had at the moment the flow stops.

Adjustments Jumper settings: Fig. 56: Jumper settings The connector J2 is for selecting different options for the induction generator control. By default, one jumper is set in the factory at the position “current control” connecting the pins B1-B2 and a second jumper is set to connect B3-B4 for “On board power adjustment”.

Adjustments Fig. 57: Gas flow regulation The flow controller mainly consists of the following components:...
Adjustments – The flow sensor (1) – The flow regulating valve (V6) – The flow control board HF 42 The flow sensor measures the gas flow rate, and converts its flow rate into an electrical signal (DC voltage). The HF 42 board compares this flow value with the flow value set by P1. The signal resulting from the comparator controls a pulse width modulator.

Adjustments Fig. 58: Gas flow regulation Caution: This board is installed in the analyzer upside down. The above schematic shows the components side of the board, which is the lower side of the board in the analyzer. Test points explanations: TP1–TP2: AC voltage across the pump coil TP3: GND for measuring DC voltages on P4, P5, P6.

Adjustments The outputs of the IR cells (IR base lines) are factory set at 8V when the paths are new and clean. The peaks come down starting from 8V coming down to a minimum voltage (at the peak maximum) and they go back to the 8V baseline after completion of combustion. The 8V IR-base line is obtained through preamplifier adjustment only.

Adjustments TP 23: Output section [4] 4.2.4 Base line adjustments. See also chapter “Check base lines”. When the IR module (rack) is removed from the analyzer, it can be powered on the desk by a 24VDC power supply connected to J1 of the IRC board. The power supply should normally be capable to supply a current of 5A.

Adjustments Adjust the outputs of other cells (not golden paths) to have between 7 to 8V by adjusting the gains of their preamplifiers. Set the jumper of the JP1 from position 2 (Test °C) to Position 3 (Analysis). Install the IR module into the analyzer. Allow sufficient time for the base lines to stabilize.
