TDL measurement cell 2 Introduction Endress+Hauser systems are high-speed, diode laser-based extractive analyzers designed for extremely reliable monitoring of very low (trace) to standard concentrations of specific components in various background gases. This manual addresses the specifics of the measurement cells used in each analyzer rather than the analyzer as a whole.
Failure to follow directions may result in fire. About the gas analyzer Endress+Hauser analyzers are tunable diode laser (TDL) absorption spectrometers operating in the near- to short-wavelength infrared. Each compact sensor consists of a TDL light source, sample cell and detector specifically configured to enable high sensitivity measurement of a particular component within the...

With the SS2100 analyzer, sample gas flows continuously through the sample cell ensuring that the sample is always representative of the flow in the main pipe.

By normalizing the signal by the incident intensity, any laser output fluctuations are canceled, and a typical, yet more pronounced, absorption profile results, as shown in the figure. Endress+Hauser...

Endress+Hauser takes the fundamental absorption spectroscopy concept a step further by using a sophisticated signal detection technique called wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS). When employing WMS, the laser drive current is modulated with a kHz sine wave as the laser is rapidly tuned.

The measurement cell may be mounted vertically (with the optical head on top) or horizontally. 1. Mark the mounting holes on the panel. Refer to the figure. Drill four clearance holes, if using machine screws, or drill and tap four 1/4-20 holes, if using studs. Endress+Hauser...

The 0.1 m cell uses the two mounting holes at the top only. The 0.8 m cell uses both mounting holes at the top and bottom.

All work needs to be performed by technicians qualified in pneumatic tubing. Endress+Hauser recommends using 1/4 in. O.D x 0.035 in. wall thickness, seamless stainless steel tubing. Refer to the measurement cell outline drawings in Appendix A for supply and return port locations.
Page 17
Secure tubing to appropriate structural supports as required. 5. Check all connections for gas leaks. Endress+Hauser recommends using a liquid leak detector. Do not exceed 0.7 barg (10 PSIG) in sample cell. Damage to cell may result.
