  • Page 11: Codel Dcem2000 Analyser - Introduction

    Data from up to 32 SmartCEM stations is transmitted via a serial digital link (CODEL SmartBUS) to the Central Datapoint where it is logged on a dedicated PC or assembled for onward transmission to a plant computer or DCS.

    1.5 CDC Serial Port - for use with the CODEL IEM system The CDC is equipped with a 2-way serial communications port for use with the CODEL Integrated Emissions Monitoring (IEM) system. On plant where more than one CODEL analyser is installed, this is the preferred method and, even for a single analyser installation, can provide significant benefits.

    Instruments in the past have, however, generally proved to be unreliable, falling rapidly into disuse or to be so expensive and complex as to be affordable only by the very large users, such as power stations. The CODEL DCEM2000 seeks to overcome these problems by providing a reliable, simple to use instrument with low maintenance requirements.

    CODEL Technical Manual Page 4 2.4 Station Control Unit (SCU) The SCU provides 48V DC power for the analysers on its local data bus. The 48V DC power input to the SCU is from a separate power supply fed from 86 to 264V AC maximum.
  • Page 15: Measurement Principle

    CODEL Technical Manual Page 5 3 Measurement Principle Consider the two identical transceivers positioned at either side of the flue (or duct), unit 1 and unit 2. The transmissivity of light from unit 1 to unit 2 (unit 1 transmitting) can be represented by the equation : τ...
  • Page 16: Window Compensation

    CODEL Technical Manual Page 6 As the two bracketed terms above are each measured from only one of the transceivers, the output of the instrument is independent of drift of either detector. 3.1 Window Compensation A reflector is mounted on the ‘ball’ of a compressed-air operated ball valve enabling it to be rotated in to and out of the optical path (see Figure 4).

  • Page 19: Installation

    The analysers are supplied with standard 10m cables already connected. If any items are missing please inform CODEL or your local CODEL supplier immediately. The installation site should be free of all encumbrances and safety procedures should be observed at all times.
  • Page 20: Air Purges

    CODEL Technical Manual Page 10 Construct the mounting assemblies by welding each site mounting flange to a suitable stub-pipe, nominal bore 75mm. The pipe should be long enough to keep the equipment clear of any duct lagging and it also helps to insulate the equipment from high duct temperatures.
  • Page 21: Ball Valves

    CODEL Technical Manual Page 11 Figure 6 : Adjustable Mount Details 5.3.2 Ball Valves The ball valves are mounted to the air purges using four M6 hexagon head screws. Note that these screws locate through the nylon insulating bushes in the air purge flange and screw into the valve flange. The nylon isolation bushes are essential to maintain electrical isolation of the transceivers from the duct.
  • Page 22: Signal Processor Unit

    CODEL Technical Manual Page 12 5.3.4 Signal Processor Unit To mount the signal processor, first remove the cover by loosening the four captive screws. The case is then secured to a firm support by use of the four mounting holes, one in each corner of the case, outside the sealing rim.
  • Page 23: Electrical Connections

    The connection schedule for the DCEM2000 and Signal Processor Unit is shown in the following drawings. Important Note : The SCU may be integral with the GCU of an accompanying G-CEM4000 gas analyser. If no CODEL gas analyser has been supplied the DCEM2000 will have been provided with a separate SCU and PSU. These units should be installed and connected in accordance with the installation manuals that accompany them;...

  • Page 26: Commissioning

    Having installed the DCEM2000 in accordance with the installation manual, ensure that purge air is flowing to the purge units at a pressure of 1.5bar. Check that the address in the DCEM2000 control unit is set to 2. The two transceivers should be in approximate alignment before undertaking any further work involving the SmartCOM software.
  • Page 27 CODEL Technical Manual Page 17 Select an Auto update rate of 2 seconds and click on start. Yellow numbers on a background should appear. If a sky blue background appears click on Stop and begin again. If after 3 tries there is no black background check comms between the PC and SCU.
  • Page 28: Detector Levels

    CODEL Technical Manual Page 18 7.3.2 Detector levels Select Detector levels in the Function box. The following screen should appear. Set Auto Update to 2 seconds and click on start. Next check the detector levels; the optimal values are: 20,000 ±2000 (Dr1 & Dr2) and 15,500 ±500 (Dt1 & Dt2).
  • Page 29: Zero And Span Calibration

    CODEL Technical Manual Page 19 7.3.3 Zero and span calibration Remember - the calibration routine must be run during commissioning, otherwise the instrument will not be able to calculate the true level within the duct. DO NOT run the calibration routine unless reasonable conditions exist in the duct.
  • Page 30 CODEL Technical Manual Page 20 Next select "Calibrate" in the selector box and the following screen will appear. If you want a full Check, that is a Zero and span calibration and window check, click on the target check box. If a window check or span check only is required click on the appropriate check box.
  • Page 31: Transmissivities

    CODEL Technical Manual Page 21 Ensure that if the ‘Total % contamination’ is greater than 2% then the windows should be cleaned. The span check value should be within 1% of the target span value, if not, repeat the span check procedure using a larger number of target cal cycles.
  • Page 32 CODEL Technical Manual Page 22 Select 4 seconds in the ‘Auto update’ box and click on ‘start’. The opacity data should be divided by 100 and the extinction data by 10,000. OPS.086 Issue : B Rev. : 1 Date : 11/8/10 Doc.

    Page 23 8 Routine Maintenance All CODEL equipment is designed for continuous and reliable operation and to keep the levels of maintenance to an absolute minimum. The electronics require no routine maintenance; they are all solid-state and undergo a rigorous factory burn-in procedure.
  • Page 34: Fault Finding

    In the absence of any CODEL trained technicians on site, it is strongly recommended that, in the event of a fault, CODEL or its local service agent be contacted immediately with equivalent current information contained in the analyser records.
