Introduction 1 Introduction Overview The Teledyne Analytical Instruments (TAI) Model 3190 is a micropro- cessor-based trace oxygen analyzer for real-time measurement of trace amounts of oxygen in inert gases, or in a wide variety of gas mixtures. It features simple operation, fast response, and a compact, rugged construction.
LED for operating the analyzer. These features are described briefly here and in greater detail in Chapter 4, Operation. Figure 1-1: Front Panel Function Keys: Seven pushbutton membrane switches are used to select the function performed by the analyzer: Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
The rear panel contains the electrical input and output connectors. Separate rear panel illustrations are shown in Figure 1-2 for the AC and DC powered versions of the instrument. The connectors are described briefly here and in detail in the Installation chapter of this manual. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...

Its action is similar to that of a battery. There is, however, an important difference in the operation of a battery as compared to the Micro-Fuel Cell: In the battery, all reactants are Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Figure 2-1 illustrates the external features. Figure 2-1: Micro-Fuel Cell Refer to Figure 2-2, Cross Section of a Micro-Fuel Cell, which illus- trates the following internal description. Figure 2-2. Cross Section of a Micro-Fuel Cell (simplified) Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
It is measured and used to determine the oxygen concentration in the gas mixture. The overall reaction for the fuel cell is the SUM of the half reactions above, or: Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
2-2 decreases. In the Model 3190, the slope is monitored. If the inverse of the slope: Span Value (ppm) / Cell Output (nA) is over 4.447 ppm/nA, a sensor failure alarm is triggered, indicating that the cell should be replaced. 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 V dc analog range ID output. A current to voltage converter (E–I CONV) produces the 4-20 mA dc concentration signal. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Unpacking the Analyzer As soon as you receive the instrument, carefully unpack and inspect Control Unit, External Probe, and any included accessories for damage. Immediately report any damage to the shipping agent. The analyzer is Teledyne Analytical Instruments...

Calibration Range, EVEN THOUGH INSTRUMENT IS IN THE FIXED RANGE MODE. Calibration Preliminary—If not already done: Power up the Analyzer and allow the LED reading to stabilize. Set the Alarm setpoints and the fullscale ranges to the desired values. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
9999 ppm. When the reading changes to percent, the LED display will alternate between flashing “PC” and the oxygen concentration. On the other hand, if the instrument is displaying ppm, only the concentra- tion reading will be shown. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
It takes longer for the electronics to settle when switching to the high gain than when switching to low gain, that is the reason why the count- down only appears when the sensor reading is going down and not up. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
3. Insert a small flat-blade screwdriver into the slot in the receptacle wall nearest the fuse and gently pry open the fuse receptacle. The fuse holder will slide out. The fuse in use is visible in the clip. To Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
If the front panel Trace Oxygen Meter displays “00.0” when the unit is plugged in, and the power switch is in the ON position, CHECK to make sure the sensor is connected. If it is, replace the sensor. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
Refer to Figure 5-2 for an exploded view of the cell block and cell. To remove a spent or damaged Micro-Fuel Cell: 1. Disconnect the Power Source at the Control Unit. 2. Disconnect the connector from the cell block if possible. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
ENVIRONMENTAL AND SAFETY laws. 5.2.4 Installing a Micro-Fuel Cell To install a new Micro-Fuel Cell: CAUTION: Do not scratch, puncture, or otherwise damage the sensing membrane of the Micro-Fuel Cell. If the membrane is damaged, the cell must be replaced. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
If it is determined that failure is due to faulty work- manship or material, the cell will be replaced at no cost to you. Note: Evidence of damage due to tampering or mishandling will render the cell warranty null and void. Teledyne Analytical Instruments...
