0.30 H2/N2 After switching on and warming up the MFA 9000 shows the operation screen. Mainly it provides the user with the measured gas concentration. The first line gives the user status information. E.g. in occurrence of process alarms or a system error an appropriate indicator is shown.
Within this menu the operator can select where to go from here. If the item “Opera- tion” is selected (as shown) the MFA 9000 will return to the Operation screen by pressing <EN- TER> or <UP>. To get access to a submenu, first select the appropriate item and press <ENTER>.
The current loop is refreshed. If the operator uses the option “YES” in the “Gain Calibration?” menu this starts the gain calibration procedure. : +49 (0)2302 89010 WITT-GASETECHNIK GmbH & Co KG Salinger Feld 4-8 www.wittgas.com Gas Safety- & Control Equipment...
------------ P001 The entire accessible individual configuration of the MFA 9000 is stored in about 200 Parameters. In the Parameter menu all configuration and actual measuring can be retrieved from the instru- ment. This may help to diagnose malfunction and mal settings.
Reset All? NO/YES The MFA 9000 continuously checks the internal electronic parts as well as the connected sensor against plausible values. If one or more of the actual states fit to the predefined alarm mask a sys- tem alarm is triggered and an error occurs. This is indicated in the first Display line by “Er”. In this case the system alarm indicator is flashing.
The Expert Setup enables access to all parameters, reset functions, access modes and codes and test signals for subsequent connected equipment. : +49 (0)2302 89010 WITT-GASETECHNIK GmbH & Co KG Salinger Feld 4-8 www.wittgas.com Gas Safety- & Control Equipment...
