Introduction Introduction Overview The Teledyne Electronic Technologies Analytical Instruments (TET/AI) Model OT-3 is a microprocessor-based trace oxygen analyzer for real-time measurement of the parts per million of oxygen in inert gases, or in a wide variety of gas mixtures. It features simple operation, fast response, and a compact, rugged construction.
All controls are accessible from the front panel. See Figure 1-1. The front panel has seven push-button membrane switches, a digital meter, and an alarm indicator LED for operating the analyzer. These features are described briefly here and in greater detail in Chapter 4, Operation. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Down Arrow: Increment values of parameters downwards as they are displayed on the LED readout. Digital LED Readout: The digital display is a LED device that produces large, bright, 7-segment numbers that are legible in any lighting environment. It has two functions: Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Alarm 1, Alarm 2, and Power Failure Alarm connections. Sensor Connector: Internal Sampling System, Sensor Connector. RS-232 Port: Serial Digital Output of concentration and range signals. SSR POWER (AC POWER UNITS ONLY): +15 VDC power output for powering Solid State Relays. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Micro-fuel Cell: In the battery, all reactants are stored within the cell, whereas in the Micro-fuel Cell, one of the reactants (oxygen) comes from outside the device as a constituent of the sample gas being analyzed. The Micro-fuel Cell is therefore a hybrid Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
The space between the active elements is filled by a structure saturated with electrolyte. Cathode and anode are wet by this common pool. They each have a conductor connecting them, through some Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
The output of the fuel cell is limited by: (1) the amount of oxygen in the cell at the time and (2) the amount of stored anode material. In the absence of oxygen (or any gases capable of oxidizing lead), no current is generated. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...

The same digital information is also sent to a 12-bit digital to analog converter (DAC) that produces the 0-10 V dc analog concentration signal and the 0-10 VDC analog range ID output. A voltage to current converter (E–I CONV) produces the 4-20 mA DC analog concentration signal. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
As soon as you receive the instrument, carefully unpack and inspect the Unit, and any included accessories for damage. Immediately report any damage to the shipping agent. The analyzer is shipped with all the materials you need to install and prepare the system for operation. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Electrical Connections Figure 3-1 shows the Model 3300T/OT-3 rear panel of the control unit. (See Figure 1-3 for DC version). To gain access to the terminal blocks, the analyzer door screws must be loosened, and the door opened. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
