  • Page 11: 3050-Te Moisture Analyzer

    The 3050 Moisture Analyzer is a smart sensor that measures trace concentrations of moisture in a process gas stream. At the heart of the 3050-TE Analyzer is a 3050- OLV, which has been modified for operation at moisture concentrations below 100 ppbv.
  • Page 12 The calibration data, which relates the moisture concentration of the gas stream to the measured frequency difference, are stored in an EEPROM within the QCM sensor module. Figure 1-2 3050 Analyzer Flow Diagram. 1-2 | 3050-TE Moisture Analyzer...

  • Page 13: Controller Communication

    Controller Communication All analyzer functions are controlled by a microprocessor housed within the smart sensor. Communication with the smart sensor is achieved through the following connections: • One analog input, 4 to 20 mA • One analog output, 4 to 20 mA, isolated. Can be either loop powered or powered by the analyzer.

  • Page 14: Internal Timing

    The sensor saver mode extents the life of the sensor, but provides slower response time. The analyzer updates every 2.5 minutes instead of 1 minute; however, the ana- lyzer still responds within specifications. Refer to analyzer specifications on page 2-1. 1-4 | 3050-TE Moisture Analyzer...
