Warranty

This equipment is sold subject to the mutual agreement that it is warranted by us free from defects of material and of construction, and that our liability shall be limited to replacing or repairing at our factory (without charge, except for transportation), or at customer plant at our option, any material or construction in which defects become apparent within one year from the date of shipment, except in cases where quotations or acknowledgements provide for a shorter period. Components manufactured by others bear the warranty of their manufacturer. This warranty does not cover defects caused by wear, accident, misuse, neglect or repairs other than those performed by Teledyne or an authorized service center. We assume no liability for direct or indirect damages of any kind and the purchaser by the acceptance of the equipment will assume all liability for any damage which may result from its use or misuse.

We reserve the right to employ any suitable material in the manufacture of our apparatus, and to make any alterations in the dimensions, shape or weight of any parts, in so far as such alterations do not adversely affect our warranty.

Important Notice

This instrument provides measurement readings to its user, and serves as a tool by which valuable data can be gathered. The information provided by the instrument may assist the user in eliminating potential hazards caused by his process; however, it is essential that all personnel involved in the use of the instrument or its interface be properly trained in the process being measured, as well as all instrumentation related to it.

The safety of personnel is ultimately the responsibility of those who control process conditions. While this instrument may be able to provide early warning of imminent danger, it has no control over process conditions, and it can be misused. In particular, any alarm or control systems installed must be tested and understood, both as to how they operate and as to how they can be defeated. Any safeguards required such as locks, labels, or redundancy, must be provided by the user or specifically requested of Teledyne at the time the order is placed.

Therefore, the purchaser must be aware of the hazardous process conditions. The purchaser is responsible for the training of personnel, for providing hazard warning methods and instrumentation per the appropriate standards, and for ensuring that hazard warning devices and instrumentation are maintained and operated properly.

Teledyne Analytical Instruments, the manufacturer of this instrument, cannot accept responsibility for conditions beyond its knowledge and control. No statement expressed or implied by this document or any information disseminated by the manufacturer or its agents, is to be construed as a warranty of adequate safety control under the user’s process conditions.

Model 9110TH NOx Analyzer

Introduction

1. INTRODUCTION, FEATURES AND OPTIONS

1.1. OVERVIEW

The Model 9110T Nitrogen Oxides Analyzer uses chemiluminescence detection, coupled with state-of-the-art microprocessor technology to provide the sensitivity, stability and ease of use needed for ambient or dilution CEM monitoring requirements of nitric oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and the total nitrogen oxides (NOx). The instrument:

Calculates the amount of NO present by measuring the amount of chemiluminescence given off when the sample gas is exposed to ozone (O3).

Uses a catalytic-reactive converter to convert any NO2 in the sample gas to NO, which is then measured as above (including the original NO in the sample gas) and reported as NOx.

Since the density of the sample gas effects the brightness of the chemiluminescence reaction, the 9110T software compensates for temperature and pressure changes.

Stability is further enhanced by an Auto-Zero feature which periodically redirects the gas flow through the analyzer so that no chemiluminescence reaction is present in the sample chamber. The analyzer measures this “dark” condition and uses the results as an offset, which is subtracted from the sensor readings recorded while the instrument is measuring NO and NOX. The result gives a sensitive, accurate, and dependable performance under the harshest operating conditions.

The 9110T analyzer’s multi-tasking software gives the ability to track and report a large number of operational parameters in real time. These readings are compared to diagnostic limits kept in the analyzers memory and should any fall outside of those limits the analyzer issues automatic warnings.

Built-in data acquisition capability, using the analyzer's internal memory, allows the logging of multiple parameters including averaged or instantaneous concentration values, calibration data, and operating parameters such as pressure and flow rate. Stored data are easily retrieved through the rear panel serial or Ethernet ports via our APICOM software or from the front panel, allowing operators to perform predictive diagnostics and enhanced data analysis by tracking parameter trends. Multiple averaging periods of one minute to 365 days are available for over a period of one year.

1.2. FEATURES

Some of the other exceptional features of your 9110T Nitrogen Oxides Analyzer are:

Ranges, 0-50 ppb to 0-20 ppm, user selectable

Independent ranges and auto ranging

Large, vivid, and durable graphics display with touch screen interface

Microprocessor controlled for versatility

Multi-tasking software to allow viewing test variables while operating

Continuous self checking with alarms

Permeation dryer on ozone generator

Bi-directional RS-232, optional USB and RS-485, and 10/100Base-T Ethernet ports for remote operation

Front panel USB ports for peripheral devices and firmware upgrades

Digital status outputs to provide instrument operating condition

Adaptive signal filtering to optimize response time
