Page 21: Chapter 1: Overview
Identification of the Orion Model 2030 Silica Analyzer’s three major assemblies and four subsystems and available options 1.1 Analyzer The Orion Model 2030 Silica Analyzer, illustrated in Figure 1-1, is a preci- sion industrial analyzer that performs silica analysis of one or more fluid Description sample streams using an established chemistry and dual-wavelength col- orimetry.
Page 22: Features And Functions
The Orion Model 2030 Silica Analyzer is configured at the factory to accept commands via as RS-232C serial port. The RS-232C ports can be used to re- port to a printer, a remote computer, or other serial data communication device.
Page 23: Analysis Cycle
Chapter 1: Overview 1.2 Features and Functions The Orion Model 2030 Silica Analyzer reports the results of each sample measurement and calibration on the control panel display and printer port, and it signals any alarm conditions that occur. Analysis results are re- ported over an isolated 4-20 mA current loop for driving a recorder or other analog device.
Page 24: Colorimetric Analysis
Modern computer-aided spectrophotometric devices like the Orion Model 2030 Silica Analyzer measure the absorbance or optical density of a colored solution, usually in the visible region of the electromagnetic spec- trum: 400 to 850 nanometers (nm), specific to silica. They use optical band- pass filters to select one or more wavelengths of light in order to measure light absorption by a solution containing the silica of interest.

Page 26: Second Reference Measurement
In the Orion Model 2030 Silica Analyzer, light passes through the sample twice. The light path begins at the incandescent source lamp. Incident light travels through the fiberoptic bundle to the probe window, then through the sample to a reflector.
