5.7.12.1 GENERAL RS-232 TROUBLESHOOTING Teledyne API analyzers use the RS-232 communications protocol to allow the instrument to be connected to a variety of computer-based equipment. RS-232 has been used for many years and as equipment has become more advanced, connections between various types of hardware have become increasingly difficult.
1. Unplug the cable connector at P1 on the lamp power supply and confirm that +15VDC is present between Pins 1 and 2 on the cable connector. 2.

6. THEORY OF OPERATION The Model T400 ozone analyzer is a microprocessor-controlled analyzer that determines the concentration of Ozone (O ) in a sample gas drawn through the instrument. It requires that sample and calibration gasses be supplied at ambient atmospheric pressure in order to establish a stable gas flow through the absorption tube where the gas’...
(Euler’s number) is the absorption path, or the distance the light travels as it is being absorbed. is the concentration of the absorbing gas (in the case of the T400, Ozone (O α is the absorption coefficient that tells how well O absorbs light at the specific wavelength of interest.
HOTOMETER BSORPTION IIn the most basic terms, the photometer of the Model T400 uses a high energy, mercury vapor lamp to generate a beam of UV light. This beam passes through a window of material specifically chosen to be both non-reactive to O and transparent to UV radiation at 254nm and into an absorption tube filled with Sample Gas.
O is present and when it is not. The Model T400 accomplishes this by alternately sending the sample gas directly to the absorption tube and passing it through a chemical scrubber that removes any O present.
Measurement and Reference Phases rendering the analyzer useless for detecting O If the Model T400 is installed in an environment where the presence of mercury vapor is suspected, specific steps MUST be taken to remove the mercury vapor from the sample gas before it enters the analyzer.
6.2.1 S AMPLE The flow of sample gas through the T400 analyzer is produced by an internal pump that draws a small vacuum on the downstream side of a critical flow orifice thereby creating a controlled airflow through the analyzer’s absorption tube and other components. This requires the analyzer gas inlets be at or near ambient pressure usually managed by placing a vent line on the incoming gas line (see connections in Section 2.3.2).
ARTICULATE ILTER The T400 Ozone Analyzer comes equipped with a 47 mm diameter, Teflon, particulate filter with a 5 micron pore size. The filter is accessible through the front panel, which folds down to allow access, and should be changed according to the suggested maintenance schedule described in Table 5-1.
The core of the analyzer is a microcomputer/central processing unit (CPU) that controls various internal processes, interprets data, makes calculations, and reports results using specialized firmware developed by Teledyne API. It communicates with the user as well as receives data from and issues commands to a variety of peripheral devices via a separate printed circuit assembly called the motherboard.
The DOM is a 44-pin IDE flash drive with a storage capacity up to 128 MB. It is used to store the computer’s operating system, the Teledyne API firmware, and most of the operational data generated by the analyzer’s internal data acquisition system (DAS).
CPU. The A/D can be configured for several different input modes and ranges, but in the T400 it is used in uni-polar mode with a +5V full scale. The converter includes a 1% over and under-range.
This circuit monitors the +5V power supply during start-up and sets the analog outputs, external digital I/O ports, and I C circuitry to specific values until the CPU boots and the instrument software can establish control. Teledyne API – Model T400 O Analyzer 083730400A DCN8130...
Figure 6-7. Relay Board Layout The most commonly used version of the Relay PCA installed in the T400 analyzer does not include the AC relays used in instruments where there are AC powered components requiring control. A plastic insulating safety shield covers the empty AC Relay sockets.
6.3.3.1 STATUS LEDS The LEDs located on the analyzer’s relay board show the current status on the various control functions performed by the relay board. They are listed on Table 6-1. Teledyne API – Model T400 O Analyzer 083730400A DCN8130...
6.3.3.3 HEATER CONTROL In the base version of the Model T400 photometric analyzer, there is only one DC heater operated by the relay PCA. It is attached to the Photometer UV Lamp housing and maintains the temperature of the UV Lamp at a constant 58ºC.
On instruments with the IZS valve option (OPT- 50G) one additional valve (the SAMPLE/CAL valve) selects either the sample inlet when the analyzer is in SAMPLE mode or the dry air inlet when the analyzer is in one of its calibration modes. Teledyne API – Model T400 O Analyzer 083730400A DCN8130...
6.3.3.5 THERMOCOUPLE INPUTS AND CONFIGURATION JUMPER (JP5) In its base configuration, the T400 analyzer does not include any thermocouple sensors; however, in instruments where the optional metal wool scrubber (OPT-68) is installed, one thermocouple is used to sense the temperature of the scrubber. By default, this single thermocouple input is plugged into the TC1 input (J15) on the relay PCA.
OWER ONFIGURATION The T400 analyzer’s digital components will operate with any of the specified power regimes. As long as instrument is connected to 100-120 VAC or 220-240 VAC at either 50 or 60 Hz it will turn on and after about 30 seconds show a front panel display.

SOFTWARE OPERATION The instrument’s core module is a high performance, X86-based microcomputer running Windows CE. Inside Windows CE, special software developed by Teledyne API interprets user commands via the various interfaces, performs procedures and tasks, stores data in the CPU’s various memory devices and calculates the concentration of the sample gas.
Unlike other analyzers that average the output signal over a fixed time period, the Model T400 averages over a set number of samples, where a new sample is calculated approximately every 3 seconds - this is a technique is known as boxcar averaging.
The instrument slope and offset values recorded during the last calibration are viewable in the Dashboard (Setup>Dashboard to configure). 083730400A DCN8130 Teledyne API – Model T400 O Analyzer...
